That's a lot of senators and representatives in the #1 democracy promoting freedom, justice, and the rule of law, within the legitimate international bodies...

Sanctioned unjustly to appease the state of Israel https://t.co/283vFOXPem

Fun fact:

When prime minister Rafic Al Hariri was murdered, the political class close to him changed the inheritance law for just 24 hours to pass his wealth untaxed to his children causing the Lebanese treasury the loss of 2.2 billion dollars. https://t.co/zCq4avYDtv

Bahaa is right, the system is a failure but for many other reasons aside the existence of an armed non state actor in Lebanon. https://t.co/rRWnPYR97d

Israel is attcaking Syria right now.

Second unjustified aggression in one weak.

Head of the Syndicate of Bakery Owners: If subsidy on bread is lifted, the price of the bread bag will be on the day following the lifting of the subsidy, 4,500 pounds if the dollar exchange rate remains below 8,000, and more than 4,500 if it exceeds this rate. https://t.co/DrAU0pu8Mb

The bag of bread (900g) is priced at 2,000, accordingly to a decree on 30 June.

It was 1,500 before, worth 1$ at the old official rate. Now it is worth 0.25$, however in terms of dollars it doesn't matter since all are getting paid at the old rate.

The aircraft flew out of Beirut on Wednesday morning and was tracked by FlightAware to somewhere near Amman, Jordan from over Israel. https://t.co/4w0Yv8z6Kl

The army units operating at the port discovered a container on the outskirts of the port, containing about 4 tons of ammonium nitrate in bags similar to those that were present in Ward 12.

Information reported that customs at Beirut Port did not know about this container. https://t.co/f6uZwN9cBd

What Ghassan Saud said today is very accurate. The stifling US economic blockade on Lebanon was aimed at starving the Lebanese people in the hope that they would revolt against Hezbollah’s weapons, and that this project has not been realized and thus the policy change. https://t.co/ft86jDjP20
