And who will we blame for this? Syrians? Palestinians? Armenians? Arabs? We have to chose someone to blame because we lebanese never do harm. No never. #Sarcasm
RIP.
Where are we heading to in this country? No laws whatsoever, people drive without knowing the rules of driving and risk their own as well as other people's lives! What a shame! I'm really embarrassed to say I'm Lebanese now... What a shame!
It's the biggest shame that we are now in 2013 and this country is the most backward country on the planet.
I truly feel ashamed to call my self Lebanese! It's a shame that the animals in charge of this country are allowing all of this to go on, but the bigger shame is the so called "people" that live in this country are happy to see this carry on, and mindlessly keep on electing these animals again and again.
How many people should die on the roads before something gets done?
Such a shame!
