    Unfortunate publicity for the motherland

    Comments (1)

    I endured the parade of nations on the opening night of the Olympics so I could root for the Lebanese team. But I’m not sure I wanted the kind of publicity we got on Friday Night. Ziad Richa was the proud flagbearer, whose event for the Olympics is Skeet Shooting. His story is extraordinary, but “shooting” and “Lebanon” is not good for the tourism industry.

    hehehe :) as long as shooting remains a sports thing, I have no problem. Go LEBANON!!!

    By the way, not bad for the American swimming team either…
