The Lebanese Priest Who Was Kidnapped in Nigeria Returned To Lebanon

October 6, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

In the airport’s VIP lounge he said that

his abduction was the “tax” he had to pay for being forced to leave Lebanon “in search of an honest living.”

But you’re a priest. You can find honest living in Lebanon, unless you’re in it for the money of course. I still think this story has a side to it that we don’t know about.
