It's the saddest thing about Lebanon that it is basically in a perpetual state of undeclared civil war. It's as though nobody learns any lessons whatsoever from the 80s. In fact, those seeking bizarre publicity from this tragedy are actually exploiting it for their own sectarian goals. Naturally, the French won't hesitate to aid and abet a phenomenon that is actually divisive and should be condemned.Yes, that pretty much sum it up.
They want the country to placed under a 10 year mandate so some underlying issues within the country can be sorted out. The country is a failed state already anyway. Can you imagine a country where a militia (who is loyal to a foreign power akin to a proxy) basically runs the country and is part of every major decision making process in the country? A country with a national army that plays second fiddle to a militias. Lol. Lebanon needs a complete overhaul of it's system. Something akin to a revolution. The current and past system has failed the people. Things can't continue like that. This news just shows how desperate the people have become. SadFirst time to see any country volunteering to be colonized...
HAHAHAHAHAHAAH44,000 sign petition for France to take control of Lebanon
06.08.2020
Over 44,000 people have signed an online petition to "place Lebanon under a French mandate for the next 10 years" as of Thursday afternoon.
The petition on the community petition website Avaaz was reportedly set up by Lebanese citizens on Wednesday following the explosion that rocked Beirut on Tuesday, killing over 140 people and injuring more than 5,000.
"Lebanon’s officials have clearly shown a total inability to secure and manage the country," the petition reads. "With a failing system, corruption, terrorism and militia the country has just reached its last breath."
"We believe Lebanon should go back under the French mandate in order to establish a clean and durable governance."
'Lebanese are desperate'
Dima Tarhini, from DW's Arabic department, said the petition had been circulating widely on Lebanese social media.
"That's how desperate some Lebanese are," she said. "So much has been lost from where there was already so little. They lost their homes, they lost their properties, they cannot save their children. They don't know what to do."
France controlled the Middle Eastern country from 1920 to 1945 under a mandate set up after World War I.
Macron visits Beirut
The petition was directed at French President Emmanuel Macron, who on Thursday became the first foreign leader to arrive in Beirut since the tragedy struck.
Macron warned that Lebanon will "continue to sink" without reforms as he arrived in Beirut. He promised that France will help mobilize aid for the city, which has seen billions of dollars worth of damage and destruction.
Macron told angry crowds in downtown Beirut that he would seek a new deal with political authorities.
"I guarantee you this — aid will not go to corrupt hands," Macron told protesters.
"I will talk to all political forces to ask them for a new pact. I am here today to propose a new political pact to them," he said.
Crowds protesting on Beirut’s street called for Macron to help oust the country’s leadership. Shock has quickly turned to anger in the city, with many commentators and protesters saying that corruption and incompetence among the political classes were responsible for the deadly explosion.
Prosecutors in France have opened an investigation into the explosion. At least 21 French citizens were injured and one killed in the blast.
Even before the coronavirus pandemic, Lebanon was rocked by protests with people angry with the government and economy. A recent devaluation of the currency saw many Lebanese people lose thousands of dollars in savings.

The significantly large Christian population was there way before Muslims appeared so maybe someone else should emigrate...
Funny how you lot cry about colonisation,expulsion of Muslims from Spain, Balkans and Western interference all over the world.Nah Muslim conquered the Land and it belongs to them.
Funny how christians cry about it.
Region needs to see its issues be sorted out in way that the regime that invades other countries get corrected ... beside whom supported them most recently handing out Golan Height, West bank to it undermining all int law and norms ..They want the country to placed under a 10 year mandate so some underlying issues within the country can be sorted out. The country is a failed state already anyway. Can you imagine a country where a militia (who is loyal to a foreign power akin to a proxy) basically runs the country and is part of every major decision making process in the country?

Stop crying about it.Everyone else in the Balkans is also happy that their ancestors undertook a thorough spring cleaning.Only recently idiot. Thank my ancestors for expelling christian terrorists from my beloved Turkey.
May God bless Enver Pasha <3
Difference between Middle Eastern Christians and Balkan gypsies. Middle Eastern christians did not turn against their fellow nieghbours like greeks and armenians also supporting a foreign invasion.
Stop crying about it.
