    Agree with Nana, hope you didn't get me wrong, I obviously meant nothing offensive. Our problem ain't with Jewish people but israeli ones.

    ^ I think what people said in the video is related mainly to trees, not vegetation seeds. For example, Cedar trees..

    ^^

    So..you wouldn't have plant a tree day in Lebanon? We have adults and even primary school children involved in this each year.

    Yes, definitely agree with Nana.

    Here in Saida, Lebanon, there were several Jewish families that lived happily with Muslim and Christian families. Judaism is the first religion from God to be spread by Moses. We do not have a problem with it.

    But our problem is with Zionists.
    I do not consider them Jewish because they have massacred the religion with their deeds.

    Hellon:

    yes, we do have such campaigns.
    But such campaigns need finance, and sadly, our politicians wouldn't give a damn on such things they consider not of their priorities, knowing that they do not have priorities.

    I mean if a school plants like 3 cedars or any other tree, that wouldn't cover the 80%+ of the green areas we lost.

    I'm not going to give up on a solution just yet haha!!! We have fund raisers here in Australia...when my kids were in primary school there was no government finance to install air conditioning in the classroom so...the parents all did fund raising activities to raise the money...isn't something like this possible for trees?

    Lol, considering that our parents' wage can only cover the necessities of life (food, clothes, shelter, a moderate education), then no, we can't.

    :p

    In Australia, it's different. You guys have leisure time, you pay your bills and get what you need from your government.

    Here, we pay our bills, yet we don't get anything in return.

    So, planting trees would be in the 'Z' part of our list-to-achieve.

    I know, it's heart-aching.

    No...you're very wrong there....some people get handouts from the government but the majority work damn hard for their living here. My daughter spent 5 years in Uni and held down 4 part-time jobs in these years.

    The average person works 12 hours a day with only Sunday off and, even then, if they get a shout at overtime they will take it because, if they do...then next week they may just be able to afford a night out. Maybe you've been watching some Ozzie soaps that are definately NOT about how the average Joe lives here?

    Anyway...a couple of pennies from any community will eventually add up to enough cash to buy a tree I would imagine.

    Mmmmm... yes you're right, but everywhere it's the same!
    the only difference, maybe in Australia one is emotionally safe. He doesn't wander around with his/her between the hands waiting for a car to explode or for a car to crush him.

    We all have to die eventually no matter which country we live in...or it could be a country we are just passing through ...wrong place wrong time...but...you provided a video clip regarding, among other things, the lack of trees in your country...if your people really want to resolve this...I'm sure they will find a way...that's all I was suggesting.

    HELLON, abed lost you a bit, he may be illiterate with such stuff hahahaha :P just kidding, but I think I know better than he does regarding green protection campaigns, if you read my posts again you would notice that I told you things are taking a new course regarding everything, not only do we have campaigns for Green Spaces protections, there are many Reserves that are working on planting those trees that are on the edge of being extinct , as much as the government sucks, I believe there are big changes taking place.

    Schools, and Unis always have projects, plans,...blabla for example tomorrow morning I and my fellows at uni are running in a Marathon that promotes Peace and Green. under slogans such as " I want a peaceful, Green Lebanon" etc, the funds probably will be going for such campaigns! Tree planting!

    XDHope I cleared this side as well

    Abed, Saed is in jeddah to close the deal for STC turkey, that's information you shouldn't know but oh well, who's keeping track,

    Nicko, Nana answered your question perfectly,

    Not every Zionist is Jewish
    and not every Jew is a Zionist,

    we've never had problems with the religion it self, Just the Zionist people which mostly reside in Israel.
