Lebanon

Why did he do that ?

While a devastating war displaces a million Lebanese and turns the country into a graveyard, the President continues to treat the empty state treasury as his personal piggy bank. Running a taxpayer-funded travel agency for his children and in-laws while the population begs for basic shelter is a masterclass in political psychopathy. This isn't just routine political corruption; it is a profound moral betrayal. Dragging an entire clan of unaccredited relatives to Washington while citizens are bombed out of their homes demonstrates a level of tone-deaf arrogance that borders on the sociopathic. Aoun remains entirely detached from the reality of the dying nation he supposedly leads.
