I was driving near Concord (Verdun) around midnight on the second day of Eid when I was surprised to see the minister Ziad Baroud helping the internal security forces at one of their checkpoints! I quickly grabbed the camera and took this photo.
It’s good to know there are still some humble people out there…
I wish to see this happening to Lebanese politicians, one at a time!
Update: As per MIR’s request, here is a link to the shoe throing game! Lebanon is currently the 11th country playing this game!!
Happy Adha to all my readers! 🙂
I can’t but laugh at such ads! Since when is “Ma3rad Abou Imad lil khodra” doing sponsorships?

I received it by e-mail from Digital ITS, the company that has been spamming Lebanese e-mail addresses for so long now!
On my way back home from work everyday I pass by Roadster Achrafiyyeh. There, and on each single day I encounter a Sukleen truck collecting trash from the containers and causing a massive traffic jam.
Will the guys in charge at Sukleen ever think of chaning the schedule for trash collection? Ya3neh n7akalna nlemm zbeileh il sei3a 6:30 3ashiyyeh!!!
Abed El-Fattah is known in Saida for selling juice on a cart. Check out his “promotional” video on youtube!!
Classes were suspended today at the Saint Joseph University in Beirut because of an incident between Kataeb, Lebanese forces and Hizbullah.

Akhbar lazizeh!
For a second there, I felt proud to see the Hawker Hunter jet fighters flying over Beirut and participating in the aerial show of the 65th anniversay of (in)dependence (they made a lovely noise by the way!).
But then I felt awkward when I recalled they were actually made in the 1950’s, and we barely managed to get certain parts to restart using them! I wonder against whom we can use the 5 jets we have, Fath Al-Islam most probably? if they ever appeared again… or maybe against the Israeli Air Forces? no I’m kidding.
Anyway, it’s good to see them flying again!
Happy independence day! Nshalla byin3ad 3laykon bi iyyeim independence.
Even when the numbers are speaking (i.e. Logic), you see Lebanese news sources interpreting it differently.
Yesterday was the day for Beirut Syndicate of Lawyers elections. Now check today’s headlines!
