Lebanese Writer and Middle East North Africa Editor Joe Aub A

ipex's joe aub a has been present for many of the marches in lebanon. He pointed out that a lot of the recent unrest was kicked off by a series of brutal wild fires and an incompetent government reaction to the crisis. Lebanon actually had horrible wild fires back in two thousand eight, which inspired a group of citizens to raise money to buy a small fleet of fire fighting Helicopters. But due to outrageous corruption, money to repair those helicopters was funnelled away towards god knows what and who. And by two thousand 12, the fleet was no longer operational.
