    I think that Berri and the other turkish fans in lebanon should help syria a bit while visiting Turkey. Remember the Turkish-Syrian dispute over Iskandaron (Hatay) Province.
    This beautiful province situated at the Mediterranean coast was syrian (before being annexed by Turkey) and has a surface area of 5403 km2 (alomst 3 times the size of the golan)!!! Its population still speaks arabic until now…please someone in syria or in lebanon should try to remind turkey about this province and see what happens!!!

    lebanese don’t care about Syrian affairs my friend. as long as syria stays out of lebanon we’re all happy.

    good that turkey took it otherwise it wouldn’t be such a happy place
