Many have denied it. Many have kept it. But there are many who are seeking it. It is the Lebanese nationality that has a great history. It is the nationality of many great people around the globe. Since Lebanon has more than 16 million person around the world of Lebanese origin, then we can say that the percentage of people who has the Lebanese nationality is so little comparing it to the percentage of people who deserve it. But why would we let those people of Lebanese origin to have the Lebanese Nationality?
Since their parents or grand parents are Lebanese who traveled searching for work or escaping wars, it is their right to ask for their mother nationality. If we look deeper into the case, we have many people who are not Lebanese and took the Lebanese nationality because their father’s or mother’s parents were important in Lebanon. It is not fair to treat some people different from others. So to fix this difference, all people of Lebanese origin have the right to get their Lebanese nationality. In addition to that, the Lebanese government would know where are the Lebanese people located around the world, so that it can help them if anything harmful happened in the countries they are living in.
Furthermore, this step would make the people of Lebanese origins anxious to come and visit Lebanon. If they loved Lebanon when they come, then their visits would be repeated to their mother country. In addition to that, when they know the history of the land of their parents and grand parents they would feel pride that would make them be proud of being Lebanese. This would lead to make a database about every lebanese in the whole world and thus it could be a step to make all the lebanese thinkers, philosophers, and artist to meet and share their knowledge with their fellow Lebanese.
At the end, every person can ask for his belonging to his roots, and if he is a Lebanese, we should welcome him to have the Lebanese nationality. It is his right and not a gift we give for him. At last, Being Lebanese is Something to be Proud of.
