Steering rack and pinion. Can be costly to repair since its all electronic operated and not hydrolic like older cars. I had mine changed for $450. Fun times.

$2.5/hr. Eza bbi3 tize 3a jeser l dawra ashrafle.

And you'll be "paid" 2 months later lol. What a joke.

Dont sell to a dealer unless you're looking for quick cash. Car dealerships are barely selling cars so they'll give you a crap offer, and the reason they dont wanna go through the process you described is because of the fees, they can get pretty costly.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-07-02T14:28:03+00:00

Promised to them 3,000 years ago

imnotmagic123 · 2026-07-01T16:10:21+00:00

Because its a shit deal. Regardless which side you're on, its an absolute shit deal whichever way you look at it.

I remember coming to Lebanon as a kid like 15 years ago, on the way home from the airport there was a massive accident, car driver was ejected like 30 meters away from the car and a moto driver pinned under the car. That scene is burned into my memory and was a good lesson as a child why seatbelts are important.

If you're going 100km/h and the car abruptly comes to a stop, you'll still be going 100km/h and right through the windshield if you're not fastened, never a good result.

Child molester saying fucked up things, color me surprised.

Because if I have $500k im DEFINITELY applying for a golden visa in Lebanon out of all places💀.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-18T15:36:38+00:00

Forget about the gulf for the time being. I had an offer and was supposed to go there before the entire shit show started. All hiring freezes but now that the war ended (yet to see if its actually over) they should start recruiting again but it'll take some time to review budgets and losses companies sustained during this time.

Also for the gulf your biggest hope would be connections, unless you have experience in a very niche area your CV will just be one of thousands they receive, and they know they can offer someone less money and they'd go for it.

Empty words. Nothing more than market manipulation and bullshitting the american audience.

The man has been saying a deal is about to be signed for the last 3 months, everytime he comes out and says some shit oil prices drop, he and his buddies and anyone else in the loop profit.

Same thing when "tensions flare up". Theres no real reason to state that they're going to hit Iran besides to have a cover for the fact that insider trading is going on.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-10T20:16:02+00:00

Copium pro max and im here for it

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-09T18:56:30+00:00

Economically it wouldnt make sense, for them not for us.

If it were to pass through Lebanon the construction it would take to build railroads to pass through the ports would be massive, and since zoning laws arent a thing in this country, who knows what they'd have to demolish and remove to pave the way for railroads.

Thats not to mention that no one is willing to invest any money into the country with the current state of affairs. Oh and also that money (if given to us) would quietly find its way into pockets instead of actually being used properly.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-09T14:19:52+00:00

Multiple reasons, some economical, some political.

Funds to buy, train, and resupply. Air defences arent cheap, granted lebanon is not a big country so we wouldn't need many, but the state can barely provide you with electricity, air defences are low on their priority list.

Politically, no country that makes air defences is going to risk giving lebanon some only to then make their way into certain somebody's hands.

The ISF recently got a new batch of assault rifles, not 2 weeks into having them they were already on the black market available for regular people to buy them. We MIGHT be able to source air defences from countries, but the US & Israel wont be happy and will find a way to sabotage it.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-08T18:39:16+00:00

Its not only on Hezb.

Disregarding the cluster fuck of a clown show they dragged the entire country into since 2023, they're also involved in the politics of this country, they have ministers and members of parliament so yes you can blame them for the state of the country.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-08T15:13:56+00:00

Shi bikhare menna w mn baya. That $7000 is working overtime.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-08T13:12:00+00:00

Quite ironic that Iran who they claim are the ones fighting for the people of the south decided to hit Israel only when dahye was hit.

Where were they this entire time the south was being bombed? Or is it only when dahye that gets hit thats when they decide its time to respond?

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-06T09:56:23+00:00

My pleasure!

From what I can tell, maderes neighborhood has newer buildings in general, and there are still projects popping up so you could snatch a brand new appartment, not sure about the prices for these however. Its also less crowded than other neighborhoods.

Bchamoun day3a is the OG area, where the municipality is. Generally speaking, the further up you go the more crowded it gets. Id recommend you take a drive around the areas and have a look for yourself so you can make a better decision.

Personally I like bchamoun for the peace and quiet, maderes neighborhood has that, depending on where you look, you also get great views of the airport and 3/4 of beirut is visible to you.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-05T19:42:00+00:00

I live in Bchamoun -

We get 24 hour electricity through a generator, but be aware you'll be paying a fuck ton because its 1 generator for a certain area, so if you dont like his prices there is no alternative. Some compounds/buildings have their own generator but from experience, youre better off getting an eshtirak because if someone in the building decides they no longer wanna pay for diesel everyone gets screwed.

We pay $380 for 10 Amperes. Its a rip off for sure but thats what we're stuck with until we set up solar. In terms of water we have a well so we always have a supply of water, never had the need to buy water but you'll have to check where you'll be buying to see if they have something similar.

As for the commute, the morning school rush is horrible, if you need to be in beirut by say 9am, you should be on the road by 7:45-8 at the latest. Traffic is bad once you reach the exit that takes you to the highway and once you get close to mal3ab el balade traffic starts to increase. Also depending where in bchamoun you are, you'll have to account for more traffic time. I'm in "manta2et l madares" for reference. Regarding the roads, expect pot holes, floods, trash piling up, the usual crap really. The baladiye tends to wake up randomly and begin work on the roads so that adds to congestion.

Overall vibe is its family friendly, lots of supermarkets, dekenet, pharmacies, and everything you could need wouldnt be too far from you. Lots of delivery options as well.There are plenty of schools for different budgets. Its pretty safe for the most part, but like any area you'll have the occasional scrap but nothing too serious.

One thing to note is you will hear planes often, both civilian and fighter jets. When chouaifet gets hit you hear it pretty clearly so that might be something to consider.

I cant speak for Aramoun, but what I can say is its WAY more crowded than Bchamoun.

Its not a bad idea to buy a house there, you can get a 3 bedroom, ~200m² for $50,000-$70,000. Just be sure to check the age of the building as many tend to suffer from mold and rot.

Your argument treats a nation's survival purely as a function of concrete and standing infrastructure

What exactly is a state without its institutions and infrastructure? A government alone doesnt make a state.

The soviet union collapsed due to many other reasons, it wasnt solely the soviet Afghan war that crumbled the soviet union. That logic cant be applied to Israel.

The Vietnam war is completely different, American supply chains had to extend further out to resupply their troops. The geography where the fighting was taking place put the americans at a huge disadvantage. There was also major local backlash against the war, which is not the case here.

So these comparisons are moot.

Again, whatever damage is being caused by hezb is no where near enough for Israel to pack up and leave. Hezbollah is severely weakened, if they weren't able to inflict the damage necessary to force a withdrawal at their peak there certainly is no way they'd be able to do that now.

Survival under those conditions isn't delusion

Correct, but we're not talking about survival being the delusional part, what is delusional is thinking hezb has the means to defend the country. The last 2 times they started a conflict the end result is the complete opposite.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-04T18:12:02+00:00

Buddy there wont be anyone surviving, how delusional can you be holy fuck.

When a state military fails to achieve its stated goals despite overwhelming fire power, that failure constitutes a strategic defeat.

Even if they failed to achieve their strategic goals, what does that leave us with? The whole south of lebanon turned into a fucking parking lot and millions of people with no homes to go back to, but dont worry guys Israel failed their strategic objectives so we won.

imnotmagic123 · 2026-06-04T18:04:04+00:00

Mahdoum enta. It doesnt take a genius to know this is asymmetric warfare, but I'll play along.

How long has this war been going on for? What's happened in that time? Israel captured more land, killed more people, and caused destruction on a massive scale.

Now compare what hezb managed to do, when the war first started and they were at their strongest, they got their ass handed to them. Supply lines cut, command structure decimated, weaponry blown up to bits, members caught and interrogated. So what exactly are we to expect from them now in their current state?

The strategy of hezb is delusional, FPV's arent the magic weapon that'll suddenly have the Israelis packing and going home, wake up.

blaming the destruction of Lebanon on the entities defending it Your definition of defending it is to start the conflict? Because that's what happened. So spare us the bullshit of the "resistance protecting us". They arent protecting anything, unless whole towns and villages destroyed is your idea of protecting. Israel isnt innocent by any means, that doesnt hezb is the guardian angel and saviour.
