There have been hopeful news coming out of Bambi’s birth country recently, going in the direction of Lebanon’s sovereignty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, there is an additional piece of promising news, related to the investigation concerning the Beirut port surreal explosion: Judge Tarek Bitar resumed work after two years (https:\/\/shorturl.at\/v0lvQ<\/a>; https:\/\/shorturl.at\/x7f1H<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In several posts, over the past 4-5 years, Bambi paid tribute to the courageous Judge Tarek Bitar. As a reminder, she even argued that he deserves a Peace Noble Prize for having resisted both impunity and corruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, despite threats to his personal safety, along with legal obstacles to prevent his work, he kept his inspiring courage as an impartial judge. Today, he resumed his investigation. Thanks to him and bravo! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

May justice be finally served in Beirut so the families of the victims can grieve in peace. They deserve to be able to believe in truth and justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bambi sends her continuous full solidarity and gratitude to Judge Bitar. She sends her heart again and again to all the victims, along with love to Beirut, which deserves brighter days filled with hope, healing, and justice… for a change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To conclude this post on a musical note as usual, Mr. Ghassan Saliba’s lyrics remain timely, today more than ever… once again, here is a quick English translation by Bambi for your convenience, if you are interested:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIs it possible to go back in time and forget what happened<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the city inhabited by sadness and destruction?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible, one of these days, to extinguish the fire<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the hearts they have burned and made them collapse?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible, one of these days, to resume writing poems<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

about the beautiful city we fell in love with and keep waiting and waiting for?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible, one of these days, to be able to erase what happened to this sad city<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the journey can begin?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bewildered population of this country when it has no decision-making<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It begs for justice from any place and any forum of decision-making<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible, one of these days, to do something for the many who have survived<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reach the end of the story and put an end to the defeat?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible, one of these days, that the generations that do not chose their destiny<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

will get rid of this injustice and change the course of history?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One day will come when all the secrets will be uncovered<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And this stubborn land will be crowned with glory\u2026<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n
