"I more and more see the human rights are vanishing in my origin born country LEBANON. I'm shokked and astonished seeing the feodolic system returning back to Lebanon. jailing peoples based on their names, identity, community and religion. The human rights are disappearing in Lebanon and this is shameful how the beautiful old cultural country 'LEBANON' is changing.
The peaceful country is disappearing and the fanatisim is mushrooming in an unprecedented manner.
Imprisoning peaceful and weak people in Lebanon is becoming common as conspiracy for spying to cover-up some killing incidents happened to some personalities.
I do support your effort to help making a better world for evryone.
