How The Average Syrian Sees The Relationship With Lebanon

June 27, 2007 · Mustapha Hamoui

This comment by an Alarabiya reader is offensive on so many levels to Lebanon. It would have been funny if it weren’t a commonly held belief in Syria:

Translation (Mine)

Lebanon is like a disobeying daughter to her mother Syria who raised her and cared for her when she was young. But when she became an adult, Lebanon backstabbed her mother. 
Who now is going to protect her? She being a vulnerable woman who’s desired by everyone. If only she would go back to her mother who will defend her before she becomes a territory that the envious would trespass to settle scores.. But the mother keeps her head high as long as she has an obeying son and a home she can go back to

Warning: Please don’t vomit on your keyboard. 

Also, Who do you think the obeying son is?
