I fear for Lebanon



Almost a month now since the brutal attack on Lebanon started, the UN is STILL considering a ceasefire,the headlines of middle east crisis are still about Lebanon(I wonder who's next),the Lebanese nation is still scattered ,many are homeless,many are buried in mass graves..

I fear for Lebanon

I fear the day the world will look at the Lebanese crisis as they look at the Palestinian one,I fear that the day will come when the world loses interest in solving the matter and when the UN comes up with more defied resolutions.

I fear for Lebanon

what I fear most is that the attack on Lebanon turns into something common ,that the death of children there will be expected..Same as in the Palestinian intifada..I fear the day will come when we all lose interest,when we stop checking the news,when we leave the whole issue into the hands of those who care less

I fear that the deaths there will be a new statistic
the homeless settle outside their land
and the ones who left start a new life outside their homeland

You know, I am also afraid that this might happen. And I realize this as I watch the titles in newspapers, now they rarely make it on the first page (I am talking about Romanian newspapers). And when I watch Euronews and I see that they have started shortening the reports from Lebanon and sometimes they change the order of international news, they do not start with the events unfolding in the Middle East since the information regarding the Pakistani "terror plot" in the UK.
