Today, November 22nd will be the #Lebanese #Independence #Day in commemoration of the end of the #French Mandate in 1943. Although most Lebanese have reached a point where they wish they were still conquered by only one country like France, after being in conflicts and resolutions caused by outside influences since the 16th century; a French colony seems promising and more stable.
This year the Lebanese are celebrating by selecting one side of the supporting powers, since Lebanon has been backed and controlled by opposing parties, resulting into a division of control and power between opponents and allies, the main and most evident ones being Iran and Saudi Arabia (#saudiarabia, #iran) .
The Lebanese Government have been pressured to take sides, when the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammad bin Salman, held the Lebanese Prime Minister, Saad #Hariri during his visit, and persuaded him to suddenly resign from his duty and by labeling a strong political party in the country as " #Terrorists "; just when members of the government started to get along.
These actions were taken place, in order to create an imbalance of the governing structure which is based on religious sects, and escalate the Iran–Saudi Arabia proxy conflict/Middle East Cold War.
#Syria and #Iraq are active, and Lebanon's passivity should be determined today.
Saad Hariri a Lebanese, Saudi and French National, the son of the late Prime Minister Rafic Hariri; had lived most of his life abroad and spoke a bit of #Arabic with a Saudi accent, he lived between Saudi Arabia, #France and the United States, where he completed his education in Business Administration. He returned to Lebanon when his father was assassinated in 2005 and started following his father footsteps after his older brother refused to take that path.
In 2009, he got elected as Prime Minister, and reserved governmental positions till date, since the government has been extending its own term without consent of the people since 2014, and the government was running for more than two years without a President, because they couldn't settle on one only to elect a pardoned old war criminal.
The Lebanese Government have been failing miserably to run and operate as a proper government due to mass corruption and following the outdated French #Constitution, which have lead to various problems in the country such as:
-Garbage Crisis still not been solved yet, Minister of Environment still in chair (#garbage_crisis)
-Payment of salaries and running cost of non-operating industries and services (train stations, refinery, etc..)

-#Water and #electricity shortage (in a water rich country)
-They even managed to raise their salaries this year, while former and deceased #Ministers and #Parliament Members or their families keep getting paid after their terms and death.
These examples and much more are further crippling the country and sustaining it unstable, which looks to be the aim as inflation, expensive living the national #debt keep growing and increasing.
Now the faith of the Lebanese #People is being held by #World #Powers in their own game and an individual, the situation will be set and should be apparent tomorrow on the Lebanese Independence Day when the Prime Minister comes back to his country and makes a declaration. Its apparent the need to identify and establish their allies as the War in Syria is starting to decline, they need to expand through the region, and Lebanon is strategic area to do so being a bridge between west and the middle east, they might be planning to reoccur the country into a war field for World War III ( #World_War_III).
