What's the deal with Lebanon?
It's 40% Christian, used to be majority Christian not too long ago.
Why did this country turn out so shit, like every other majority Muslim middle eastern country? Why couldn't it become more western and align itself more with Europe? Most of their Christians even belong to a catholic church which is in full communion with the pope.
>>51741658
Look at Lebanon and now look at you.
This is your future Kraut
>>51741658
Shut up hans
>>51741658
Because the Muslims there constantly chimpout and cause civil wars. Also Syria fucked with it for pretty much its entire existence.
Basically it's still mudslimes fault.
Also please explain the Lebanese civil war too me like I'm an idiot
Was Israel the only country standing up for the Christians in Lebanon?
>>51741771
T.butthurt
>tfw no Christian Lebanese gf
>>51741815
Israel invaded and wanted to install a puppet gov't in Lebanon and caused all the shit there. They didn't give a fuck about Christians or anyone. the Majority of Leb Christians approve of Hezbollah and hate Israel, espceially after 2006.
>>51742438
So you're saying lebanese christians dug their own grave then, because it would seem now they're slowly getting wiped out by the muslim majority.
>>51741815
>Israel
>Standing up for christians
>>51742497
They did in the sense of being too passive and immigrating and leaving the field open for Muslims and Pali refugees. But I'd say that without the Israeli intervention (borth indirectly through Palestine and directly through Southern Lebanon) things wouldn't have gone so bad.
>>51741658
After the Palestinians were kicked out of Jordan in 1970, they went to Lebanon, which made Muslims the majority in Lebanon. This led to civil war when the Muslims wanted to take control of Lebanon
>>51742497
Lebanese Christians are rich enough to move to Europe and America, while the Shiites stayed home and had lots of kids and the Sunnis got themselves killed fighting in foreign jihads. 40 years of this and now the Shiites are the majority.
Mos of Africa countries are christians. It has nothing to do with religion, the country success relies on it's history,culture, resouces.
>>51741658
>used to be majority Christian not too long ago.
no
>>51741658
I think they had some islamic uprising that caused millions of lebs to flee to Latin America and other countries did it not?
I don't know which mayor event caused this but the mass migration bit is true.
Literally because of the jews
>>51743823
An assload of Palistinian refugees moved there from Israel after all the Arab-Israeli wars and then immediately started a civil war in Lebanon who were dumb enough to take them in because religion of peace.
>>51743911
LEBANON
YES
>>51743911
They moved there after the PLO attempted a coup in Jordan
>>51743982
Yup.
Palis really are just lovely people aren't they? Remember this Yurokeks next time you bitch about Israel bombing a few.
>>51743911
All ths shit on the middle east comes from Israel.
>>51741658
Lot of Lebanese immigrants in Merica.
They get very offended when you assume they are Muslim for being Lebanese. We're like the Mecca for diaspora with a chip on their shoulders.
>>51744056
>arabs repeatedly attack israel and get btfo
>this is israels fault
>>51744034
That's bullshit, the war was inspired by Israel, and then Syria invaded so Lebanon became a bloodbath.
>>51744183
>was inspired by Israel,
The fuck does that even mean?
The war was literally started by mudslime PLO refugees trying to depose a marronite Christian elite because Mudslimes refuse to behave even in countries where they're guests.
>>51743911
so the poor innocent muslims who were accepted by Lebanese people actually abused the fuck of the aid revolting to convert their new home in the shithole they fled from in the first place effectively biting off the hand that was feeding them?
Geez, that sucks.
But sure thing we, as homo sapiens can learn from our mistakes and no one would be stupid enough to allow this to happen once more.
right?
>>51744314
The war began when Palestinian Army was forced to Lebanon because of defeat by Israel, where were no refugees, and the war began when tensions between suuni, shia and christians became furious because of lack of law and weak Lebanon government. The cause is Israel, nation of thieves who stole Palestina land. Christians and muslims have lived there in peace for ages before Israel appeared.
>>51744480
Yup.
And as the Norwegian pointed out they tried to do the same shit in Jordan by attempting a coup and trying to murder the king so he kicked their filthy vermin asses out.
The religion of peace is a disease.

Until Muslims became a majority in Lebanon you mean.
Fucking crazy how that always happens isn't it?
>>51744589
Yasir Arafat was an arab nationalist, and his movement has not a single islamist bone in it. They fought for their nation, not for religion.
>>51744743
Wrong. The PLO while nationalist is also heavily Islamic and has been since it's beginning.
There is nothing secular about it whatsoever.
>>51744551
But Muslimy fucked it up, they were not polite guests.
>>51744673
>arabs attack israel 400 times
Now, it's Israel waging a on single war since 1948 when they came there and stole arab lands.
>Until Muslims became a majority in Lebanon you mean.
They were always a majority. And there are christians minorities all over the Middle East, and most of them lived in peace with muslims untiil the end of 20-th century when West came there and destroyed Iraq creating a great islamist wave all over the world.
Lebanese Christians are as barbaric as their Muslim counterparts, if not more.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehden_massacre
>On 13 June 1978 at 4am, hundreds of Gemayel’s Phalangist gunmen attacked the mansion of Frangieh family in Ehden, and murdered Tony Frangieh, his wife Vera Frangieh (née el Kordahi), their three-year-old daughter Jihane, and thirty other Marada bodyguards and aides, who were at the mansion. Tony Frangieh was the eldest son of the former Lebanon President Sulaiman Frangieh and scion of one of the most powerful northern Maronite clans.He was at 36 age when killed.
>Those in the mansion refused to surrender and a long gun battle ensued in which Samir Geagea was seriously injured and fell unconscious on the road leading to the compound. The operation was successful from a military standpoint, but when Gemayel's men entered the mansion, they unexpectedly recognised among the dead Tony Franjieh and several members of his family. The Marada members were killed while trying to defend the mansion. "Even the family dog did not escape the carnage of that day." Tony's father Suleiman Frangieh claimed that the Phalangist gunmen forced Tony and his young wife Vera to watch the shooting of their infant daughter Jihane, then made him watch the murder of his wife, before killing him. More than ten phalangist gunmen were also killed in the attack.
We have plenty of these cockroaches in Brazil, they are our "Jews".
>>51741658
Muslims.
It became more shit after the Christians emigrated here. 7 million of them today.
>>51744844
They were not guests, they were an army forced to retreat there.
>>51744789
Lolno, they were backed by USSR and Lebanese communists supported FATH.
>>51744551
So Jews are to blame because they don't let themselves be defeated by mudslimes.
>>51744480
Except no. The war happened because of deliberately divisions between Christians and Muslims that were exasperated by French colonial rule because the French clearly favoured the Christians and essentially created a privileged class which Muslims and Lebanese left wing groups understandably resented. The divisions were made worse by Cold War tensions when the Muslims and socialists aligned themselves with the USSR and Arab states while Christians aligned with the west. When fighting broke out it basically turned into a proxy war between Syria and Israel.
>>51744870
As I say, religion is only a frame over the economical and cultural core, we have muslim UAE and Malaysia and most of afrikans are christians, not saying about shitholes like Colombia or Bolivia.
>>51744743
You think the PLO likes Palestinian Christians? kek
>>51744866
Israel didn't steal shit, it was British land given to the Jews by the lawful owners, the Brirish. Also the palis were given lands too they just decided to chimpout like the entitled vermin that they are and promptly lose it by being incompetent failures.
>they were always a majority
No, they weren't. Christian and Druze made up over 50% of the population in Lebanon before palis started poring over the border like a wave of human shit.
>>51745043
so you are basically saying muslims are bad because the evil white men oppresses them?
C U C K
U
C
K
>>51744992
They are to blame because they steal Palestinian land, play the victim when the Arabs resist illegal occupation, and then drive Palestinians out of their homeland so they can be greedy Jews and steal it all.
>>51745069
They didn't care much about the religion, they fought high classes with the communists.
>>51744992
No, they came in in 1948 and conquered some arab lands.
>>51745109
Uh no, considering that Lebanese Christians are still Arabs and are brown, and the Syrians and Israelis (also brown) were the primary perpetuators of the conflict. Colonialism and Cold War politics just made it worse.
>>51745043
Yeah, I guess the 1861 civil war in Lebanon that led to the huge waves of emigration of Lebanese Christians were also caused because Muslim prophets foretold that one day the French would rule Lebanon and ally with the Christians, so they tried to solve it beforehand, right? After all, everything bad in the world must be the fault of Europeans.
>>51745113
Again, they didn't steal anything. The land was given to them by the lawful owners.
The rest Israel got as spoils of war in wars they did not start.
>>51745109
Colonialism made the shit all over the worl, your fuckin West robbed all the Afrika, Middle West, Russia, all the world. We russians were defeated in 1991 but we fight the western neocolinialism again. You wiil answer for your western crimes.
>>51745256
Most of Russia is colonized land though
>>51745217
>Jews are 20% of population in 1947
>get 50% of the land
>land given to Jews is much higher quality
>Arabs reject bullshit deal
>UN passes it anyway
>Arabs resist their land being taken and given to a group of people who for the most part had only moved there in the last 20 years
>Israelis win because of Western backing
>Arabs keep trying to reclaim the land that was stolen from them and somehow they're the bad guys
>>51745169
Osman Empire was also a colonial state.
>>51745217

Stop being funny. Was the Britain a lawful owner of US?
>>51745256
according to your shitty fucking retarded "decolonialist" theory i'm just about as much of a victim as yourself.
again, that shitty theory is just a way of saying " the evil white men holds the blame"
which is bullshit Ivan and you know it.
>>51741940
t. Syrian refugee
>>51745154

After getting attacked by Arabs. One would assume that after not being able to reconquer the land in 65 years, Arabs could accept Israel as a fact.
>>51745113
>palestinian land meme
It was never Palestinian land. It belonged to Ottomans first, than the Brits who had the right to let the Jews have it. Not to mention most of the "Palestinians" were people whom the Ottomans moved there to help build the railway.
THEY STILL HAVE NO PRESIDENT
MEME ARMY
MEME PEOPLE
>>51741658
It used to be fairly decent by Mid east standards but Muzzies immigrated and ruined it.
>>51745169
I don't know anything about the earlier war, but if you don't see the connection between religious divisions fostered under French rule and the war then you are stupid. Divide and rule was a common colonial tactic that was also employed in places like Rawanda. Stoking ethnic or religious tensions benefits a colonizer because if the people are too busy fighting each other they won't fight be foreign invader. And again, it still probably wouldn't have happened, and it certainly wouldn't have been as long and bloody if it weren't for Syria and Israel sticking their dicks into it.
>>51745334
It's no business of yoirs what the British chose to do with their land.
>>51745345
>was the British the lawful owner of US
Yes of course, literally no one debates that.
>>51745334
>land given to Jews is much higher quality
More like Jews were able to cultivate the land and Arabs went "What? You can grow things there? Gib it back."
>>51745334
>>land given to Jews is much higher quality
the Israelis mostly just got the negev desert while the Palestinians got the fertile Jordan valley and judean mountains, hardly higher quality
Also, there wasn't much western influence in the Arab-Israeli conflict until 1956, meaning that the jews in particular were mostly on their own, with homemade weapons, while the Arabs were backed by most other Arab and Muslim countries
>>51745397
>After getting attacked by Arabs
Lolwut? Israel started evicting arabs since the land was given to them by UN and there were continuing zionism terrorism in 20-30s
>It was never Palestinian land
Who did live there?
>>51745357
You are a moron, Mexico. America stole 1/3 of your land from you and still expoit you, how can't you see it?
>>51745458
>I don't know anything about the earlier war
So in other words you have no context whatsoever, have no idea what you're talking about, and yet still fill justified in laying all the blame at the feet of the French.
Glad you could clarify.
>>51745397
Palestinians and Arabs in general had occupied that land long before the Jews did, unless you want to go way the fuck back to the burning of the Temple and shit. The Palestinians were displaced to make room for a minority group that had only recently arrived.
>>51745545
>America stole 1/3 of your land from you and still expoit you, how can't you see it?
It was half the land and we bought it.
Still have the reciept.
>>51745591
And Injuns occupied our countries before we got here. Does that mean our countries don't have a right to exist?
>>51745459
LOL. How about go under Queen rule then?
>>51745546
Ottoman Empire used the same methods to divide people. Think a bit, if it was because of muslims, how then the millions of arab christians would survive through all the middle ages and new time? They lived always in peace.
>>51745594
>bought
Lol.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican%E2%80%93American_War
>>51745641
Yes, you genocided those native nations just like Israel evicted arabs.
Lebanon was designed by the french to be a christian bastion... it was never majority Christian, it was just plurality Christian
>>51745692
>LOL. How about go under Queen rule then?
We would have, had we not won the war.
Winning wars matters. Maybe the Palis should start trying it for once. Those who can't defned land have no claim to it.
>>51745545
after living under anti american governments for 60 years we achieved the following results
massive poverty
centralized planned economies
massive bureaucracy
centralization of everything
state monopolies everywhere that plotted al the way to make your life shittier one fucking retarded paperwork at a time
the only way to have a decent job was to suck some bureucrat, union leader or politician's balls.
I rather being "exploited" by the american man than being exploited by my fellow country men because that way I can at least live a decent life.
>stole
They really wanted to get the fuck away from our centralist hellhole and I don't blame them.
>>51745546
I didn't put all the blame on the French. The Israelis and Syrians, as well as Cold War politics are also responsible. Colonialism just contributed by exasperating the divisions, which is something that has happened all over the place.
>>51745482
Only because the Zionists built a giant irrigation system
>>51745753
Yes we literally bought the land. Keep reading Ivan, you aren't as well informed as you think you are.
>>51745641
Did I say Israel doesn't have the right to exist? The damage is done, they are there now and as such they do have a right to exist. If you had asked me in 1947 "Should we forcibly take all this land from e native population and give it to a bunch of immigrants?" I would have said no. I would have said the same thing in the 16th and 17th centuries when Europeans were stealing native land.
>>51745756
Christians and Druze usually caucused and together they made up a slight majority.
How are Christians any better than Muslims?
It's that line of thinking that led to the creation of Lebanon and the fucked up political system the French put in place that led to the Civil War
>>51745960
Not to mention that some of the worst massacres of the war were committed by Christians.
>>51741658
>Why couldn't it become more western and align itself more with Europe?
By returning to Rome, of course. Syria and Egypt too.
>>51745692
>how then the millions of arab christians would survive through all the middle ages and new time
Living in isolated mountain strongholds like Mount Lebanon.

>>51742128
I wanna titfuck her in the cunt

Because Israel expelled Palestinians upsetting the ethnic balance, causing civil war
>>51746085
Then how do you explain Assyrian Christians, Palestinian Christians, Turkish Christians, Iranian Christians, Armenians, the Balkans, Copts and other Christian communities throughout the Middle East... why did all the Jews move to the Ottoman Empire?
Don't talk, you don't know what you're talking about
>>51746099

Look at Russia in 90s. We had mass poverty and mass robbing of our country by the est and west-backed govenment. West-backed government would caus a real famine in Mexico I guess.
>>51745960

>>51746273
Lol. Italians and spaniard have the same grade of brown skin, not to mention Morocco, Tunisia and other Middle East countries without genocides? Not to mention that the bigges massacres and genocides in the world history were caused by europeans?
>>51746218
And yet Mexico is still richer than you despite 200 years of near constant and willfull incomptence by their politicians.
Crazy that.

Yeah, of course, with mass banditism, unemployment, extreme poverty, humanitarian help, destroting of economy.
Because the Christian minority in Lebanon are all ethnic Arabs.
>>51746445
And how did those populations last so long? How could Christians survive 1400 years in a country where literally everyone wanted to kill them according to you?
I doubt you majored in middle eastern history in college
>>51746312
>west-backed government
It's a Russian meme. The government in question was corrupt, inefficient and full of crooks and idealists. The only reason why it was liked in the West was because they were no longer commies and didn't want to destroy the West. But it was 100% Russian inability to install a rule of law that led to the poverty of the 90s, not some Western conspiracy.
>>51746387
What? Russia is much more safe and wealthier place then Mexico now. We don't have mass kidnappings and narcomafia-ruled areas.
>>51746518
They were useful to pay taxes.
>I doubt you majored in middle eastern history in college
Yes, I'm glad I didn't have to hear a lecture of some Edward Said wannabe on how white people are to blame for everything bad that ever happened in the Middle East.
>>51746520
They conducted IMF plans over the country and had CIA-backed western "experts".
>>51746445
Because it was easier to them to move to Europe because they are reacher.
>>51746630
>Yes, I'm glad I didn't have to hear a lecture of some Edward Said wannabe on how white people are to blame for everything bad that ever happened in the Middle East
Well you don't know shit, so don't talk like you do. You literally have everything wrong
>>51745078
First of all, seeing the British as the rightful owners is really stupid. Just because they ruled it doesn't make what they did fair. They split the land in half when the Palestianians were firmly in the majority and deserved more than half the land. Not to mention that the majority of Jews by that point hadn't even been born there and were immigrants. Imagine a foreign country occupied the U.S. then decided deciding that it should be split in half and one half is given to Mexican immigrants. Would you say "well this foreign colonial power is the legal owner of the USA so I guess I have to accept what they say" or would you be pissed off and resist?
There is so much misinformation in this thread
It's as if people posting on an anonymous Khmer Rock Art Image Board don't know what they're talking about
>>51746630
Protip: if you avoid actually learning facts because they contradict your worldview chances are your worldview is flawed
If you don't want to learn middle eastern history because every middle eastern history class will tell you about how colonialism fucked the region maybe ou should consider the possibility that colonialism actually did fuck the region.
>>51746630
Lol, don't you think that it is true if the most scientists agree that the middle east shitty situation is a result of colonialism?
>>51746637
Those IMF plans were were supposed to make Russia into a normal country. Of course, with 100% hindsight, it was clear it couldn't work since rule of law was a concept alien to Russia.
>CIA-backed experts
1. Proofs?
2. The CIA probably knew the most about Rusia
>>51742438
Why do you muslims always have to lie?
It will take anyone less than a minute to check this out on wikipedia and see that we invaded to propup the christians against the PLO in 1982, 7 years into the civil war, which started in 1975.
And why would they give a fuck about 2006? We made sure not to bomb their or suni neighborhoods.
>>51746791
>colonialism fucked up the region
Only because they left. It was the French and Brits keeping the lid on sectarian violence, a task they inherited from the Ottomans.
>>51746819
>Those IMF plans were were supposed to make Russia into a normal country
But they led to default in 1998 and suddenly after removing west-backed government and putting patriot (and Middle East expert) Primakov in charge we got the great economy restoration supported then by oil selling income.
>>51746791
You know when European powers actually fucked up the Middle East? When it prevented Egypt under Muhammad Ali and Russia from carving up the Ottoman Empire.

>>51746834
>We made sure not to bomb their or suni neighborhoods
Top kek.
>>51746915
Yeah but they also made it worse by using divide and rule tactics. Also what the Ottomans were doing still counts as colonialism.
>>51746915
That's just plain not true
Though I love the western meme of "Shia and sunni have been killing each other for thousands of years"
It's like when an drunk guy blames his smashing his car into a tree on the tree being there and not the fact that he was driving drunk
>>51746480
Your economy was already destroyed, or are you forgetting the shortages that provided the impetus for the perestroika? Or the national slogan of "We will pretend to work as long as they continue to pretend to pay us"?
Would Russia have faired better if the desovietization was gradual and controlled?
Of course yes.
But that would have had to start in the late 70s, by 1985 collapse was inevitable.
Collapses suck, but you have to blame the suck on the system prior to collapse or you will never learn from it.
>>51746915

>Middle East under colonialism
>As for Egypt, a relative was born in Cairo to a reasonably prosperous Jewish family soon after WWII. This person remembers childhood fondly and speaks often of the greatness of “Old Egypt” as being quite the Liberal, Modern, Strongly Europeanized, and Cosmopolitan paradise. A place tolerant of innumerable intersections of art, commerce, ideas, culture, and even those from different ethnic and religious background.
>Middle East after colonialism
>Economically, the decline relative to other countries has been steep. In 1950, prior to the revolution, Egypt’s per capita income was 80% that of Greece’s and 45% of Italy’s; now, says Patrick Clawson, deputy director for research at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, a nonprofit think tank, Egypt has 11% of Greece’s per capita income, and 6% of Italy’s.

Holy shit, something happened 1400 years ago?

>Your economy was already destroyed, or are you forgetting the shortages that provided the impetus for the perestroika? Or the national slogan of "We will pretend to work as long as they continue to pretend to pay us"?
Everything was alright and the mass shortages appeared only in perestroika. There were some since 50's when Khrushev banned the artlels. But the economy functioned well before arriving of fuckin Gorbi.

Everyone with half a brain knows Islam isn't the problem with the middle east. Arab culture is. Notice countries like Malaysia, Indonesia (largest Muslim country in the world) and Singapore also have large Muslim populations and yet, they are worlds away from the Arab world in terms of ridiculous barbarism. Even the Turks are very modern and civilized compared to the Arab world. Islam didn't turn Arabs into savages, Arabs turned Islam into a part of their savagery.

Even if that's true the fact you would actually major in history is proof enough that you are way too stupid to be commenting on anything at all.

So we should all just live in a world where people guess on history?
I hate these STEM master race people, there are smart people in every major, not everyone wants to be a scientist or engineer, there's a lot of intelligence in studying something you love as opposed to what the capitalist class deems economically good.

"Our Jews" mean that they are our market dominant minority from the Middle East that practices unabashed nepotism, not that they fill exactly the same positions as Jews in America.

It depends what think is "not too long ago". In the 1930-50 the muslims became the majority.

We can argue about misdeeds of the past but it won't make Israel go away. Arabs have to accept Israel as a part of our world and focus more on fixing their own torn nations.

Yup.
The master race and chosen joinly run this world and don't you forget it shitskin.

Imagine the Aztecs coming back and reclaiming a small part of their homeland from the conqistador rape babies and establishing a successful 1st world country. That would be a more accurate descriltion.
>"hurr Christians are just as bad as Muslims"
Reminder Lebanon turned to shit the moment the Muslim population started to grow. It could have been like France in the middle east if not for Wahabis and their Zionist allies.
