Lebanon is not utopia. Cultural exchange is what our century is all about. Let Lebanon be part of it. |
To quote Seymour Hersh, it's only a matter of self-respect.
It has nothing to do with cultural exchange, and it's not only about Israel: Najwa Karam and Georges Wassouf both sang to the late Hafez el Assad. The latter not only massacred entire towns in Lebanon, but had occupied the country for 10 years. Their mediocre music saved me the hassle of boycotting them, but they still are some of the best selling singers in the Arab world.
