Ya Beirut - Weekly Video

Sunday, June 04, 2006
This is truly a magical song by Majida El-Roumi. I find it one of the most moving patriotic songs out there right now, and this video clip is an even better representation of the song, although it's in low quality the beauty and destruction can be clearly made out. This video cannot but also anger me when I see it, since it only shows where Lebanon was and where it has become. The destruction see came all in the name of arabism, the Palestinian cause, the Arab-Israeli war, and the Syrian annexation plans.

All of these plans are like raindrops during a storm. They all seem to be little problems, and then they enter into the cracks of concrete. The temperature drops even lower and they expand causing bigger cracks in the concrete making the wall fall apart. That's what all these plans were for. None of these plans were for Lebanon, they were all against Lebanon, and against its sole existence, but as many have tried during the past to remove Lebanon of the map, these people have failed and they will never succeed. All these plans involved in breaking the Lebanese apart from their cohesivness, so they would not form a unified front, and it saddens me to say that they have succeeded to a certain extent. Our fight for a truly free and independent Lebanon has not ended. Those who think it has ended are only victims of thier own ignorance. The path to freedom is still far away and we have barely left our front door.

But anyway here's the video. Witness the destruction.
