A letter from a Lebanese mother

We feel very bad about the situation in the country and can't visualize how things will evolve.
The situation looks very dim and the explosions will most probably continue. If the
government succeded in Naher al-Bared it will sure have its eyes on the other camps.
They are trying to gain popularity facingthe opposition because all the Lebanese are for the army to take control of the security of the camps.
This could have been something good if it wasn't that the government is pro American and in effect is complying with its policies in the Middle East and its savage social policies in
favour of the priviliged mafia's and financial titanic Arab and world enterprises.

If the government treats the Palestinians like humanbeings and if it provides them with the basic rights and recognition (the Palestinian Lebanese are the most oppressed among all the Palestinian refugees in the Arab world; forbidden from practicing 70 different
jobs and aren't allowed to possess a flat or land they also are not offered any kind of health or other services from the government under the pretext that the UNRWA must handle these issues and because they don't want them to settle in this country).

When the Palestinians who were massacred by the Lebanese forces ( who are now in the governement) and the Israelis and when the government doesn't show any
intention of protecting the conuntry against the Israeli's.

When you have such poor and opressed people whether Palestinians or Lebanese while on the other hand you find (Fahesh) or outrageous wealth of Lebanese and Arabs.

When the basic health services aren't provided when the poor isn't allowed to enter
the emergency room and many die on the doors when people don't earn a penny and when they watch the humilation and annihilation of the Palestinians and
Iraqi's they don't harvest except violence.
