    Some people directly relate Jewish people to “Israel” and keep on saying that they don’t like to meet Jewish and that they hate them and keep on saying that whenever they are in a foreign country, they even avoid to get in the elevator with somebody Jewish, as if that a “Jewish” is a serial killer or a monster…….. This is a STUPID and a racist thing to say and behave, maybe if they check this website they will finally know what we throughout years did to LEBANESE Jewish, maybe they will be a little enlightened !!!!!

    I believe in “Our” God, in the “Jewish”, the “Christian” and the “Muslim” God…
    Am from Saida or “Sidon”, I always pass by “Haret El Yahoud” and I see no difference btw Palestinians who were obliged to leave there country because of the “Israel” occupation and btw those Jewish Lebanese who were forced to leave all there properties in “Haret el Yahoud” in Sidon and ” Wadi Bou Jmil” in Beirut….
    I see no difference!!!! The only difference I can see is that Palestinian properties were occupied by foreign forces while the Jewish Lebanese ones were occupied by “Local”….

    YOU ARE RIGHT LYNN ,there is a big different between israil and jewish,but u can’t blame or say stupid on the people who didnt distinguish between this cuz we all know sometimes the country name took the place of the religion such as ksa , iran for sunna and shiaa plus european countries ,blabla for christian .. u get it!! plus wana correct ur concept when u said (Jewish Lebanese who were forced to leave all there properties in “Haret el Yahoud” in Sidon and ” Wadi Bou Jmil” in Beirut….)that no ne forced them exactly ,but they r by themselves took the decision to leave because they afraid from the war & it’s racism….

    at the end we don hate jewish at all, we hate the thing which called ISRAIL,and we even know how israilian people differentiate between arab jewish and other jewish,they also suffering from their treatment..
    THANX ALOT &HOPE THAT U GET MY OPINION…

    i think it s time to start to protect our brothers in lebanon coz they are minority and as they said lebanon is a message.let s do something for our brothers who had been forced to leave lebanon.
    i have a message for our brothers pls if u still have a house or properties pls don t sell it just keep coz u make lebanon more beautiful with 19 sections.
