		<description>Simply I would say: Fairouz the Legend should and must sing in Syria....if we reconsider fairouz&#039;s history, Syria played a big role in raising the fame of Fairouz....Fairouz is very smart, and she knows exactly what she is doing....She is not only a Lebanese Symbol, she is an Arab symbol..... she is a lady that must be respected and Honored by all people....She sang for Lebanon when Lebanon was in bad situations....and after that we honor her by just telling her not to go and do her job....and why is that...and for what...for our politicians that brought us here to this point....NO and millions No for the politicians that will stand in the face of Fairouz not allowing her to go and sing there.....and please Mr. politician, now you remembered that Fairouz exist...now after other countries are honoring her yo remembered that...OH my God you have to be ashamed of your self...and not even open your mouth, an d say anything about this lady, about this spiritual human being....Fairouz Go and sing....because am 100 percent sure that your charming voice will get peace and not our politicians.....Please Fairouz Go and Sing by the name of your Be lovers....</description>

		<description>CHEHAYEB AND JUNBLAT: SYRIAN FOLLOWERS SINCE EVER

I&#039;m so glad fairuz is not commenting on the subject because compared to our lady&#039;s MAJESTY, our icon, the LEBANESE IDOL, and the PUREST MEMORY of our dearest LEBANON, you all politicians look so small and stupid and not worth to answer you back; because a king never bends towards the little ones like you.
WE, THE LEBANESE IMMIGRANT PEOPLE, because of you and politicians like you, have left the country and find our identity only in someone as DIVINE and GREAT as FAIRUZ.
While you ! who are you !? do you think HISTORY will ever recall your name ? For you are either born a king or a filthy dirty dog...
I&#039;m so happy fairuz is going to sing in Syria just to frustrate you.
And just for a reminder, lebanese politicians have always been chickens and never assumed their responsabilities. they are only good in blaming.
When ASSI RAHBANI got sick, hafez el ASAD (though i don&#039;t like the guy) paid for his medical treatment while lebanese coward government sat and watched him die.
You csn never reach up to the level of ASSI and FAIRUZ for MAJESTY is something that can&#039;t be acquired; you are born with it.
Fairuz has always sang in Syria and never took a party to any political view. So please don&#039;t try to politicize her because you will look very silly and stupid in front of her AUTHENTICITY and GLORY and people will feel sorry for you.
Thank you and hope my comment reaches both of you</description>

		<description>I have nothing but respect for you Mustapha. Thank you for this post very much. Fairouz has a long history with Damascus; it&#039;s unfair to punish Fairouz fans in Syria because of the regime.
This is what Lebanon used to offer and will always continue to do: Culture, artists, and free thoughts.</description>

		<description>Ado,

you probably went down and demonstrated based on your own free well, but if it wasn&#039;t for the politicians we would have not amassed such a high number and started the course of liberation. so with all their faults you have to give them credit for taking a stand, and still do, in the face of a tyrant murderous syrian thug</description>

		<description>Fairuz is first and foremost a national symbol..when she sings she is singing on behalf of her country, she represents Lebanon first and before anyone else. Her presence is above all a representation of lebanese folk music and artistry which is highly admired in the arab world. It is only natural for her to represent her country in an event that is supposed to showcase cultural performances and artists from accross the Middle East. We should all stand behind her as a symbol of unity in the face of adversity to show that lebanon still takes pride in its artists and especially a renown jewel like her all over the world. Just because she is singing in Damascus, it does not diminish anything from her achievements and her merits and besides, through her music she always showcases Lebanon in a positive light something our political leaders can&#039;t manage to duplicate.</description>
