Do you think that the Lebanese are racists?

Question

This question is not meant to provoke anyone, but have you ever noticed that?
Do you think labour personelle from southeast asia get treated properly?
Do you think that a large portion of the Lebanese hate jews blindly even if they were Lebanese?
Would a Lebanese date / marry a black partner?

Thank You.

I spelled personnel personelle by mistake. No need that you all to make the same mistake.

Answer 1

YES
Most of the Arabs treat us badly in their homelands..
and act rudely towards us in ours as if they r the own the whole world!
just go to any Arabic chat room and watch what is going on!
i hate to say that but it is the awful truth!

Answer 2

I have to tell you the way labourers and househelp are treated is absolutely shocking for someone who doesn't live permanently in Lebanon.

I don't really think it is racism, it is just taking that master/servant mentality to extremes. I have witnessed unspeakable cruelty towards these people and watched everyone around me not bat an eye about it.

As for hating Lebanese Jews, I wouldn't put it to a large portion of the Lebanese population, yes some people might connect any jews to israel but I don't think it's a general rule.

Now the black population in Lebanon is a minority ( unless they are personel which falls in Q1) so I don't think we have a chance to interact much with the african black race outside the master/servant situation..

having said that I don't deny we are racist. For some reason, we feel superior and above most of the arab nations and this is where we exercise a lot of racism. In return we have that blind reverence to anything european and american to a much lesser extent.

I really think that on the overall we are not too bad when it comes to other races. I have witnessed more racism in Australia, France and America.

Answer 3

Do you think labour personelle from southeast asia get treated properly?
Yes they are, in the end no one told the asians to come and work in houses, and most lebanese not all treat them as one of their own (personnal experience,my mom has one at home and she treats her like her daughter)

Do you think that a large portion of the Lebanese hate jews blindly even if they were Lebanese?
Yes, because we were born and saw how the jews are hurting us, bombs, war, land, water, everything, so WE CAN SEE WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

Would a Lebanese date / marry a black partner?
Many lebanese have a black partner, MANY, so its not about the BLACK, its about will they get along with each other, and most of them do.
We are not racists, we are people who love our country deeply

thank you

Answer 5

I think some are but they don't speak of it, like they won't show it to your face and be mean but deep inside they might have this feeling, but of course in every country you will have some racist people. About Lebanese getting married to black men/women yes there is a lot and I have seen some of them too.

Answer 6

well Lebanese in general are good people... but when they think about their difference in religion ... bad things happen ... some are intellectual, other are not, that's the fact of life ... if u see a minority like "a Muslim, a christian and a Jew" hanging out doesn't mean everybody is like that ... it mean their judgment was based on the character ... as for black people ... my dream to marry Tyra Banks ... As for the SE Asians ... I don't know about that ... So ... u are probably judging the majority ... cuz apparently i am rated with the minority

Answer 7

In Lebanon.....as in any other country there are racist people and people that is not racist.
I have seen there some indian girls that take care of kids, that were treated as garbage...but i have seen also, some other indian girls that are treated as from the family, going out and sharing all with the family.
Not all the people is the same....and racism is everywhere.
Why Lebanon would be different from another countries???

Answer 8

Yes I think Lebanese or at least the majority of them are racists.

They treat hired help from SE Asia very bad.

Yes they hate jews blindly.

I personaly do not know anyone who dated or married a black partner

Answer 9

Human beings in general are walking around trying to find ways to prove their superiority. we need this because we are all basically insecure, lost little puppies and will grab to anything that gives us self worth.

I do agree with webby, I think there is much worse happening in the rest of the world. maybe we're too busy hating each other to hate the rest.

Answer 10

well smutty i myself think that they love the Jews. And i think that they love black goddesses and want to worship them by feeding them grapes and dates. I think a Lebanese would marry a cute black girl from the states but only if he could come up with the required number of goats and camels.
