Hanan Kabban

Nevada | USA | July 28

First, I’d like to thank the person who built this website. I was born in Lebanon to a Palestinian father whose family was kicked out of their house in Israel back in 1948. My late father used to sit and tell us kids the atrocities the Israel army did kicking all these families out of their homes. Even though my grandparents were among several who were forced out and taken in by the Lebanese, now Israel is trying to do the same to Lebanon.
Till today I hear the Israel’s saying – “this is our home now”. Well, fine take Israel. You’ll never live in peace. Yes, with the support of the US, you can kill one generation but remember you’re only bringing the next to hate more.
If you are in denial, you are an idiot. Yes, I left Lebanon after living 16 years in the war. But my heart is still there. I still have family there.
As for my current president in the United States, I have to admit I hope some of the bombs Israel sent toward Lebanon mistakenly get to him in the White House. Maybe and JUST MAYBE he’ll live a bit of the pain the Lebanese and I had felt and still feeling through today.
Even though, I try to remind myself that there’s an end somewhere in the near future and be patient. But I’m only getting more hateful of the Israeli’s and their aggressions on Lebanon.

You are speaking out of my heart! Almost same story and same feelings.
Thank you.
And may God bless Lebanon and Palestine the brave and good hearted people with so much patience and god bless all coward countries of the world, too scared to speak up and stand together against Israel and US Aggression and god bless the aggressors with a special blessing that hopefully brings them back to reason soon and makes them pay for what they are doing.
We will build up Lebanon again
