Smile Hello from Lebanon
Just to say Hi from Lebanon.

As someone who actually lives in the ME, most of my input about Lebanon will be things I live firsthand and will come from experience, not the media.

I love to debate and I hate bias and double standards.

I noticed this is a new forum so I wish you all the best.



By the way, I am a Christian woman and also a veteran from IAP.

Hello and welcome. It will be nice to have an eyewitness perspective from that area.

Again, welcome.

Cool. I can't wait to hear your input since it's hard to know exactly what to think about things over there.
Welcome aboard.

Thank you all for the warm welcome

Looking forward to start posting.

There is a lot going on in Lebanon these days and the media coverage is very poor, so I hope my posts as an eyewitness will be able to give you a clearer picture than the media.

Thank you CHUQ.

I hope you liked what you read. There is a lot more where this came from and as a mod, you might have your hands full

Sorry in advance for increasing your workload

Welcome aboard. Do fee fee to add yourself to our map (link is in my signature below).

I think diversity is what makes a forum successful.

You want a forum to show one point of view, you might as well turn it into a blog, I always say

Thank you for the welcome and I will definitely add my country to the map
