Lebanon is the place where the mediterranean and west asian. This is the arab worlds gateway to europe. Lebanons culture today is a manifestation of the thousand year culture of phenitians, greeks, assyrians, iranians, romans, arabs, ottoman, turks and the french. You can see the effects of these different cultures in lebanons music, in its food, festivities and traditions. Lebanon. Is known as the bride of the middle east, or more preferably west asia, and its capital, beirot is also known as the paris of the middle east. My father was born in a district located in the Southern Suburbs of beirout, but i was not born in nebanon. The formation of illegal entity in the south of lebanon by an occupying regime took away the peace in my country for several decades and the tremors can still be felt. Over 400,0 palestinians have migrated to lebanon since the arab israeli war. Israel invaded lebanon time and time again and occupied its southern parts. طياره اسرائيل بطياراته ودباباته لن نتخلى عن الشعب الفلسطيني لو ما بقي مننا ولا اي طفل.

I wasnt a quiet girl in my childhood and when i grew up, excitement, passion and a pinch of stubberness shaped my days, but my father used to say that i have a leadership spirit, although i didnt realize what he meant by that. My father asked me to be a real fighter and never give up. I grew up with my love for lebanon. After graduating from high school in the us, we went back to lebanon. The lebanon is no longer the country my father had left. The existence of israel is source of crisis for my country. But the people in lebanon have become strong, they have realized that lebanon is beyond all ethnic concerns. They no longer pin their hopes a large arab army to save them, they have learned to resist. There are still many Palestinian Refugees in lebanon. The next generations were born in the camps and grew up with the memory of palestine. They are not living in good conditions. There are people who try to make it easier for children to put up with the hardships. We settled in my fathers hometown. Getting involved in the world of politics to discover the truth is one of my main passions. Maybe thats why. I pursued my studies in information and Communications Technology at the American University of science and technology in beirout. 2007 was a turning point in my life. A network had recently been established. It was called press tv. I got in touch with its office in beirout and decided to cooperate with them.

Israel will need to be more than stopping settlements and occupy terror. When i went in front of the camera as a reporter, i felt like i had been cut out for this job.

Six, the israeli army drop millions of cluster bombs on lebanon, many of which have yet to explode. However, the bombles that do not explode on impact can do so later at the slightest touch, making them deadly as antipersonal landmines, resulting in Young Children and innocent civilians being wounded or killed, even during the time of peace. Our resistance against the top. Parents, our efforts to stop the wars and raising Peoples Awareness of their rights will help us build a Better Future for our children. I think as a journalist, i can help more to build a world brimming with peace and friendship. My dream is safe world for all children. In southern lebanon, cluster bombs can be found in farms, fields, behind houses or even in tree branches. Cluster bombs look a lot like small rocks which make them such hazard for small children. Since 2006, around 300 innocent. Civilians have either lost their lives or been severely hurt due to the cluster bombs israel left behind. The years i got married and became her mother coincided with the largest popular protests in west asia and north africa. In tunisia a young manzi who was a street vender set himself a blaze and died in protest against Police Corruption and brutality. The popular protests in tunisia intensified in severity and numbers during the days called the days of wroth. The flames of protest spread to algeria, iraq, jordan, moro morocco, sudan, lebanon, mauritania, saudi arabia and bahrain. Protests in some countries like libya, iraq and yemen led to military conflicts and wars. In egypt, Hosni Mubarak was toppled, in libya, colonel gaddafi was killed. In tunisia and yemen, the governments collapsed. Salafi groups and alqaeda found an opportunity. The major powers supporting terrorist groups stepped in, massacre, destruction and killing civilians will be the fallout of the conflicts. After working in lebanon for few years, i was dispatched to turkey to make reports. I was experiencing new conditions at work and it was interesting to me, but being away from my family, piled top of the pressure of the work. I prepared heated report on the turkish Syrian Border and revealed secrets that touched a raw nerve in turkey. We set out for in Investigative Mission in turkey to uncover turkeys pivotal role in syrias insurgency. The report was about the secret schools of militants inside turkey and sending fighters and weapons to syria with the help of government institutions. A turkish journalist was able to discover one of the hidden military camps in the turkish city of chakoli. The chikoli camp alone holds 7,500 armed men. Mr. Demes was also able to supply me with pictures of some of the insert. Inside the camps, the pictures revealed that not all of the insurgents fighting in the socalled syrian uprising are syrian. Analysts believe the reason turkey is playing such a dangerous and crucial interfering role in the syrian conflict is to fulfill us and israeli demands since the us is under pressure for its record in afghanistan and iraq. The report cast heavy shadow on my profession. You will see its effects in the future when i come back to this area again. When turkish president recep tayib erdogans press conference started, i asked the questions i had to ask without mincing my words, but as they did not have answer, they sent me out of the event. Now and from. Information has been released about the gezzi park protest that happened in turkey throughout this summer. Protests in gezzy park were going on. People wanted me to be their voice and report the events as they were. For me, the truth has always been and is top priority. Turkish security looked into statistics of 5,000 out of the sum of 5,500 who were arrested back then. My reports did not sit well with some political officials, but this is not a reason for me to keep silent. This is turkeys famous taxiem square. On any given day, there are hundreds of thousands of people on the street, but today as you can see, its like a ghost town, and that is due to the polices brutal crackdown that happened just a bit earlier, which sent a three protestors and a journalist to hospital. Serena shim, press tv, istanbul. My next destination is iraq. Iraq is involved in a war with tacfiri terrorist groups and every day new crisis surfaces in this country. In the meantime, iraqi Prime Minister nurial maliki has called on iraqkis to show unity against the terrorists. Serena shim, press tv. Baghdad. Because of the military conflicts in iraq and syria, tacfiri groups spread like wildfire. The most famous of them is the daiish terrorist group, the Group Managing to capture. Large swaves of land in iraq and syria. The group pretends to be strong because of the image it projects. I a muslim and i am in touch with muslims from different sects. The tacfiris definition of islam does not match the beliefs of other muslims. They are a brutal group that have no respect for humans or god. Their slogan is to fight against infidels. But they kill muslims and have nothing to do with the real enemy of muslims, namely israel. Islamophobia and presenting muslims as violent and irrational people who maissacre each other is the best justification for advancing the colonialist goals of the west. There is new front between the media. The incomplete and false news of the proterrorist media have made the situation harder. For the other side. The alqaeda linked isil has become very active in iraq in recent weeks as they have been crossing over from syria. The iraqi army, along with tribal leaders have been working handinhand to defeat the isil militants. Daeshs propaganda system is as updated and active as a multinational corporation. They roam about freely in cyberspace and there are no restrictions on their activities. Their most violent images. And their warmongering messages are easily accessible on the internet. The western media play a supplementary role in their propaganda, although they pretend that theyre standing on the opposite side. Daesh commits savage crimes and the media frequently broadcasts them to spread islamophobia. My country, lebanon was left in ruins in 15 years due to proxy wars and sectarian strife. I know how great this ordeal for civilians is. I know that the main reason behind these wars is the big colonial powers. They dont care about human lives. The only things they want are to sell arms, destroy islamic countries and spread sectarian hatred. With official reports claiming at least 2,007. 700 people have died this year alone. Iraqi mpyeti told us that the violence and explosions will calm down when the army takes control of anbar. A street of the iraqi capital is bloodsoked after bomb explosion ripped through busy commercial area. The polivirus has made its way into iraq from its conflicttorn neighbor, syria. Iraq is the. First neighbor of syria to be affected by the virus. Curting off, there have been several attacks on polling stations with the latest attack being in the unbar province. Nevertheless, iraqi security. Along with the army have made their way to polling stations to cast their ballots. In numina, bomb first went off in a busy commercial area, followed by a car bomb that exploded to the security situation, or if the current status quo will remain for years to come.
