edit data

A.E. Sawan was born into a Christian family on the outskirts of Zahle in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley. By the age of 12, he and his family had been forced to move five different times because of the country’s shattering civil war (1975 to 1990). Detained and tortured on several occasions by both the Syrian Army and the Palestinian Liberation Army (PLO), he eventually became a counter-terrorist operative specializing in diffusing bombs. Having survived the war, he severed his connections to violence and left Lebanon for Canada.

ISIS Is not new

"The war in Lebanon has been almost forgotten. "But what happened in Lebanon is being repeated today in Iraq and Syria and Libya. Drive-by shootings, suicide bombings, the bombing of civilians -- all these things were developed and perfected in Lebanon. ISIS did not come out of nowhere." Are you worried about their recruiting young kids from the west than redeploying them after brain washing them? Read more of this blog post »
