"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." preamble to the US constitution thanks, umm kais. i think that alot of people that havent been here to the states…especially havent grown up here in the states, dont understand. just as we dont truly understand other cultures. although in a way, we are every culture…you know “the great melting pot”. i live right in the middle of the US and as far as i can drive in a day, i’m still in the US or southern canada. so, overall, the cultures and languages dont change. we are like the song…sea to shining sea. it would take 2 days driving to get to mexico before we would truly encounter another culture, unlike europe/asia/ middle east where you can go only an hour or 2 and be in a whole nother world. sure we do have the “cowboy ” mentality where we just say “lets do it!” and go. often not thinking about all the details. i definately fit into that catagory with decisions i make. my wife is just the opposite, she thinks everything out WAY too much to the point where it paralyzes her. my dad’s quote while i was growing up was “dont just sit there, do something. if it turns out wrong…FIX IT.” which is definately american. my point being that i am truly american and believe in what america truly stands for, but also i am trying to be a citizen of the world and learning about the rest of the world and hopefully help the rest of the world in some way. even if its just some words on a blog here and there. thanks for the space, mustapha. i pray lebanon and the rest of the M.E. will truly have freedom and democracy.

Secondly,the greatest hypocrisy of all,in believing that Hizbollah is the resistance against lebanons enemies,ill believe it when they turn against Bashar and his cronies in Damascus. Thirdly,Hariri was instrumental in the survival of Hizbollah in the nineties,and prior 2005.He even lifted alot of pressure off them,by using his international contacts,to alleviate pressures on Nasrallah. well,first settle down cowboyz,secondly,hats off to lalebanessa,greattttttt post.It kills me how the shia members that support Hizbollah are fooled in believing that Hizbollah “give” but do not take.Theyve given illusions and taken lives and a whole country hostage.I know a shiite lebanese who cant stand them,because everytime he wants to renovate his house in the “Da7yeh” or even move a rock infront of his house,he would have the Hizbollah equivelant to the stasi police of east germany jumping on top of him,demanding he go see hibollah authority before moving a pebble from his house.Do u think he can speak out?
