I mean, i hear fellow lebanese saying the same thing, greek people saying the same, ausies saying the same, whats with that mentality by the way, i have 2 best friends, who are lebanese, like me and althought Im from MATEN and they are from MINYEH, which I know nothing about, beleive me i'd die for them and do whatever I can to help them if they ever need me.not coz they are lebanese, coz they r my friends. i just don't get this: I dont like to meet people from my own country...WHAT?!!!!!!!!does it make you feel special when ur with people of other countries or you're ashamed of your nationality and your background and you're so desperate to become westerners. its easy just go to the embassy,eny your citizenship, they'll take away your passport, then you can choose any naitonality you want to be part of and make friends...that is: if they accept you!!!
