Today in 1975 was the first day of the civil war of Lebanon

18
That's Beirut
Yes
Thanks
I never did, I'm kinda scared of it

>apparently it was called the Switzerland of the east,

Was Lebanon richer than Israel?

>now it's a shithole thanks to boomers

do your boomers also enjoy a high quality of life, high pensions and home ownership rate while millenials can barely make ends meet in their part-time poorly paid Mcjobs?

My dad's retarded enough to believe that Israel false flagged as the PFLP and despite 9/11, ISIS etc thinks s*nni muslims actually like christians

>was Lebanon richer than Israel
I guess so, Israel was still young then.

No, in Lebanon once you finish college you have to go work abroad, boomers come here to retire while their children are sending them moe y from outside.
I meant that boomers ruined the country by the civil war tho, Lebanon will never be the same

Your dad is blackpilled as fuck

sunnis are generally secular in Lebanon and only hate Shias , not sure about other countries

that's sad how one event destroyed your future prosperity, Lebanon could be an example for Arabic countries how to build a decent, prosperous and secular state without oil money

Middle Eastern banking moved away to the Emirates and it will never come back.

Did the Syrian government have Kamal Jumblatt assassinated? He was always the most sympathetic character in that era of Middle Eastern politics to me at least. I'm not apologizing for Druze atrocities either that was some fucked idpol.

Before the civil war, was Lebanon a christian nation?

Lebanon still gets a huge amount of investment from its diaspora that runs businesses all around the world, they'll get back on their feet I'm sure

It can come back.
It's like any other business, if you raise the profit enough the customers will come.
Some people say yes and some say no, I won't enter into this argument tho

looks very nice

Yes, the era before the civil war was called the Political maronitism (the name of the largest Christian sect in Lebanon )
But Sunnis got a good share of it as well, so Sunnis and Christians became the rich class while druz became communists and Shias Bedouin

>It can come back.
>It's like any other business, if you raise the profit enough the customers will come.

but you can't compete with countries whose economies are fueled by oil industry, they can lift all taxes so all banks will always come there

I heard there is a big crisis in Lebanon now

>1975 was over a hundred years ago

Our central bank governor is a genius, some other countries central bank governors used to call him and ask him for advice, I have no doubt he can take it back, the problem is us lifting the economy tho

That civil war is a major reason I have no sympathy for P*lestinians.

>Our central bank governor is a genius, some other countries central bank governors used to call him and ask him for advice

so the Gulf states can just buy his services

> I have no doubt he can take it back, the problem is us lifting the economy tho

but you can't lift your economy if you don't have foreign banks and businesses, it's a vicious circle

damn i read about it last today, and i realized who most of the massacres and wars are caused between each other rather then the Jews or the wast in general

I hope it becomes well
Highly unlikely tho
Honestly it started as a civil war then everyone got involved, Israel was arming Christian militias and Islamic counties arming Islamic militias so Muslims and Christian were killing each other for the benefits of others

did you guys fix everything like we did after our civil war?

my i ask you, what is your feeling about the Palestinians involvement in it, and do the public blame the refuges for it?
