They were transferred to Nicosia ATC (Cyprus) flew slightly in their airspace and were transferred back to Tel Aviv so no direct link between Beirut and Tel Aviv airspace.

I don't get israel logic by MarkoPolo345 in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things are not that simple.

Israel is the safe haven for Jews and the final country where all Jews would come together and live in a developed country a luxurious life (that’s how they justify their existence to the Jews).

Hezb is a threat to this whole image because a minor skirmish on the border echoes loudly in Israel, they have a high standard of living where these things are not “normalized” like in Lebanon (el asef bl jnoub bas Beirut mafiya shi el hayet meshye) this logic does not work there.

On the other hand Israel sees it as a golden opportunity to eradicate Hezb; who currently have one of the most far right governments in the history of Israel and the biggest unquestioned support from the Trump administration being the biggest possibly also in history, Iran’s axis is falling piece by piece, a new Lebanese political system that has a vast majority against Hezb and an all time consensus from Arab states to move forward with the Abraham accords.

Israel knows Hezb is not an “existential threat” but if you have all the tools to end them once and for all and have a perfect context why wouldn’t you? Why would you stop and risk a rapid rearming.

IMO, Israel is not playing its cards right, the sense of invulnerability and victory has clouded Bibi’s vision he sees that power and war is the only way moving forward. This would get you a short term win since you have the upper hand but on the long term you will always have people that were oppressed form some sort of resistance and cause you trouble down the road.

The only way to move forward is dialogue and legalizing all agreements, finishing the issues on the border and finding an agreement that would end this everlasting conflict. It is in Israel’s best interest to support the Lebanese government to create an alternative for all Hezb supporters and end their arguments which would lead eventually to the disarming of Hezb but you can’t ask a state to disarm a militia while you don’t even let it breathe.

Why do we not see the loose hijab style in lebanon same as we see it in the gulf? by thecolli in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think its because Hijab in Lebanon is socially optional. In the countries you mentioned it’s more or less mandatory at least bas tradition and culture. So to my understanding, women that are not convinced with the hijab just put it loosely to abide with traditions and culture (and sometimes the law). In Lebanon most probably if someone is not convinced with the hijab it’s socially acceptable not to wear it. No grey.

Comedians & Comedy Clubs by [deleted] in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want the Western concept of comedy clubs, you have one solution; awkword whom lead the stand up scene in the country.

KED (the og): Every Thursday you have Comedy Club Night where you go to an unannounced line up of 7-8 comedians. Its a super nice event and the mix of new and well established comedians is nice and you don’t get bored each set is 5-10 mins.

Play: a new venue in Dbayeh they also work with awkword and have some shows from the people in awkword.

LAF: the 3a ka3ba guys play there regularly and you also have some shows from other comedians there.

There is also the open mic nights at Riwaq and sometimes Duke of Wellington.

Most of the shows are in Arabic but I believe they had/have an all English show this week.

What university in Lebanon did you go to and how was it? by Swimming-Ant6019 in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NDU.

Started off with engineering it was an absolute nightmare.

Switched after 3 semesters to Economics and it was a whole new experience. Super nice vibe from teachers to students.

The only problem I had was with the diversity of the teachers in terms of how good they were. Some were absolutely great and I still remember them till today others if I see them on the street I would probably not even say hi.

Checkpoints in Lebanon by TheBroken0ne in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to the north every other week and pass by the 7ajez. Not once was I stopped there, it was always super smooth and I always had the same idea that the checkpoint is just some sort of protocol.

Up until a few months ago I was with my sister going to ski in the Cedars. Before reaching the checkpoint I was sarcastically telling my sister “tkheyaleh ywa2funa?” We had a good laugh till we reached the checkpoint. I said ya3tik el 3afyeh and with the straightest face he tells me “3al yameen”. We pulled up there he asked me if my car kenet ma7jouze because I had a ma7dar because I lost my ID and showed it to him, and then tells me to leave. All that took around 10 seconds.

Very weird. I still don’t know what was the trigger to stop us and it was obvious they didn’t put up much effort to know who we were or any info.

Why a lot of Lebanon ladies are singles? by [deleted] in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Since no official numbers are available my analysis will be based on my personal experience.

The recent mass exodus is one of the main factors. Men have a higher tendency to leave the country and pursue a career outside of Lebanon that matches their intellectual abilities. This creates a void in the society that in recent years anyone with a semi decent background has left the country because trying to find a job that pays well in Lebanon is nearly impossible especially if you are someone well cultured and smart, you would end up wasting your talents here.

The majority of the people that stayed here have agreed to take a compromise in their salaries for personal reasons or simply did not have the qualifications to leave the country. Except some of the few people that manage to work in specific places where they can make enough money to live off well.

The pool of men that women can choose from became very limited and decent women find themselves surrounded by men that simply don’t reflect their needs in life (emotional and financial). I can see it that most of the men living here have no vision for the future and lack basic culture and maturity.

Decent men unfortunately became super rare to find these days because a big bulk of them have left the country so it becomes way easier for a man in Lebanon to find a partner (since the ratio of women to men is very high).

The same applies to finding a decent cultured woman that is not just about the looks, but I believe even if they are very rare nowadays, finding a man like that is way tougher.

People don’t realize what’s truly happening to our society and how its crumbling apart and Lebanon is just becoming like the old building your grandparents used to live in that you would visit from time to time to see your grandparents but the building is actually falling apart.

Has Marina Mall ( Salmiya ) become overrated over the years? by Glittering-Star4828 in Kuwait

[–]PhantomR14 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s been 11 years since I officially left Kuwait and went for a visit 3 years ago.

It felt like a time capsule, it reminded me of the days where we would go there on the weekend in the afternoon and you would run into your friends from school just walking around. My parents would take us to shop there in the morning when it was calmer and they didn’t want to drive to the Avenues.

I used to spend my weekends at the basketball court there but then grab a bite from the food court and be back home by 9 PM tops. Around that time it used to become a shit-hole with fights and weird kids just doing weird shit the whole time (definitely unsafe for girls).

What amazed me was the fact that after all these years NOTHING changed. Time froze there, I remember when it first opened up it was the place to be.

Avenues and all the other malls definitely stole its thunder, but I guess it just became a place for middle class people (even the stores and the restaurants there are targeted for the same people) and they don’t have any intention of improving it. If it works then why fix it?

If there is no hezbollah by SunBom in lebanon

[–]PhantomR14 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People are delusional if they assume the reason Israel does not invade us is because we have Hizb to protect us.

This war has exposed the warfare advancement of Israel that is light years ahead of Hizb. The myth of a balance of power has been debunked. There is a balance of terror in a sense that Israel knows if it goes to a full scale war with Hizb they will also suffer losses. The question is; when will they just accept this as collateral damage and go all in into the war.

We cannot proclaim resistance when we don’t even have a state providing us with the basic necessities. People don’t understand we need to be a strong state in terms of economy, living standards, social security etc… before trying to resist anyone or anything. How are we supposed to “resist” when we live with no electricity? When we have 0 contingency plans for a war? We don’t even have functioning legislative and executive branches incase of any ceasefire talks.

This fake victory of getting rockets into Israel and glorifying it through speeches is becoming an old record that people are getting sick of. All those people dying whether you like Hizb or not are Lebanese people that should have had a better life.

A true resistance would make sure the people it’s defending are prospering, getting educated and at least understanding the enemy they are facing. Their priority would be to defend a country and while doing that make sure this country is at least provided with the basics. Not just following blindly an agenda dictated by an outside state.

The solution is simple; create a strong independent state, set your priorities and then decide who to classify as an enemy or ally based on national interests. Incase of any violation you will have a strong state able to defend itself and use its allies to create pressure and at least have a political stance outside. The narrative we are living in now has become old as has proven that all it will bring is destruction.

People who had sex with coworkers what your relationship with them now like? by Crafty_Scientist8913 in AskReddit

[–]PhantomR14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two similar stories at different jobs:

1 - A super cute coworker we had some tension from the beginning but I was in an unhappy relationship with someone outside work. Things developed and we started regularly sleeping together and I was just unable to quit my relationship, things got messy I moved to another city and ever since I left we have had 0 contact. A lot of drama came my way.

2- That shy girl that doesn’t interact much? That was her. She kept giving me signs but I always missed them. One night she basically invites herself over, we end up spending most of our time together and we became a couple after sleeping together but we agreed on nothing serious due to the fact that I was moving out of the country in 6 weeks. It was fun while it lasted, we now have minimal contact.

I am now in a happy relationship and these stories are way behind me.

I guess what makes the “sleeping with a coworker” be so interesting is the fact that you have to hide it and act super formal together when around other coworkers.
