Troll

Answer 5

We're not poor, it's hard for the material westernized world to understand our fortune.

because you people only measure wealth with money there is no point in explaining to you our many riches, a language you wouldn't understand.

Edit@Ultra: Dude, take a chill pill, all this passion and hatred can't be good for you.

but also, I love the way you are rewriting our history, hilarious.

Answer 6

lol who told u that? u may find poor areas & poor people but trust me, you find FILTHY RICH people, u will be amazed..... Don't believe everything you hear, visit us & judge whether they do or not

Answer 7

It's not poor.  It's a welfare country.

$300 million in tactical aid to Lebanon from USA

international donors have pledged $7.6 billion

$34 million from Qatar

$10 million each from Oman and Bahrain

$10 million in aid today from Egypt

UK to provide £2m for humanitarian relief in Lebanon

France announces $48m of new aid for Lebanon

They'll rebuild their stucture and some coffee houses, but do nothing about the source of their problem, Hezbollah, who just terrorized their country not too long ago.  And they all sit here on Yahoo blaming everything on everyone else.

Answer 8

Lebanon is not such apoor country... it is normal...

after Israel-Lebanon war the economy of Lebanon was destroyed a little but i think the situation now is better...

and there are rich people and poor people...like in every country...

in Egypt the situation is not good so much now, i hope they will be OK... but they live in normal standards of living... it is not good like in Israel or Dubai or Saudi Arabia but it is OK... god bless Egypt :/

Lebanon could be the most successful country in the middle east without terror and without Hezbollah... they only destroy it!! look at Israel-Lebanon war, it is all because of Hezbollah.

Answer 9

Simple...........bcoz is not rich !!

Answer 10

Strange but I don't ever regard it as a poor country...if you have a close look it is a treasure house of culture , history , natural beauty , fine cuisine & the most hospitable people you are ever likely to come across.

Poor....nuh , sorry !
