Bambi would like to thank you Louis for sharing the following article entitled “Lebanese govt says it has no funds to issue passports<\/em>” (https:\/\/www.ansamed.info\/ansamed\/en\/news\/sections\/politics\/2022\/04\/29\/lebanese-govt-says-it-has-no-funds-to-issue-passports_74f11833-c675-42b8-ba1a-142566258b9c.html<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the ANSAmed<\/em> article cited above, we learn the following: “According to Arab Barometer, some 48% of Lebanese interviewed said that they intended to leave the country, where – according to the UN – over half the population is under the poverty line<\/em>“. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since there are no words that can be said about this dramatic situation, Bambi will let music say its final word in this brief post. With much love, she would like to dedicate Mr. Enrico Macias’ famous song “J’ai quitt\u00e9 mon pays<\/em>” [I left my country<\/em>], subtitled in English, to all those who have left the Land of Cedars and to those who dream to do so… without being able to even realize their dream of a dignified life abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
