Ramadan Kareem

Well Ramadan 2009 is coming up in a 3 days or 4 …. or 5. Yes of course it is that great time of the year when the Muslims and Arabs all have to be reminded of how divided we are. We can’t even agree on the first day of the month of Ramadan. And the reasons for this is all political, all the leaders in these countries want division. So thank you for the friendly reminder once again this year, perhaps 50 years from now we won’t have this reminder and we will have achieved a stronger identity and maybe will be united.

Have a blessed Ramadan.

This is a simple video that asks the question, when shall we become Lebanese? It is right to the point, showing various people from different countries announcing what they are, i.e. I am American in English, or I am French in French, or I am Palestinian in Arabic. Only when it gets to Lebanon, each Lebanese person announces who he is by his religious sect. The small strip of land called Lebanon is divided into about 22 pieces, so when shall we become one?
