Don`t mean to ruin your day, but as an American of Lebanonese heritage, Lebanon was always concidered part of Syria till the end of WW1. Syria and Lebanon were controled by the Turks for 100`s of years.Lebanon always was and is today, home of boyh Christians and Muslims. Most Lebanonese Christians are either Catholics or belong to the Syrian Orthodox Church. If you were right about the secret Islamic plan, there would be no Christians in Lebanon or Syria.

Lebanon was not always regarded as part of Syria, since there had never been an independent Arab state of Syria until after WWII. As far as the 'secret' Islamic plans, there are none. The promises of the Islamists to eliminate the dhimmi are quite open. As far as the fact that there is still a shrinking Christian minority in Lebanon, that is true, but heck, the Islamists only assassinated their way into control about thirty years ago, give them time, they will finish off all of your relatives soon enough.

By the way, on your charge of my terrible racism, I am not a sovereign nation. On the other hand, Egypt is a sovereign nation. In an official newspaper in that country, a column has just been printed, which first says that the holocaust never happenned, and goes on to say: 'But I, personally and in light of this imaginary tale, complain to Hitler, even saying to him from the bottom of my heart: "If only you had done it, brother, if only it had really happened, so that the world could sigh in relief [without] their evil and sin." '. But of course, this is not racism to you, after all, he is only calling for killing all the Jews.

It is the leading story in World Net Daily, which is, I am sure you know, edited by a Christian of Arab descent.

Don't mean to burst your bubble, but if you'll simply rewind to apprx 900 B.C. and the time of David and Solomon, Lebanon (Tyre and Sidon) was clearly distinct from Syria.
