The Lebanese Pyramid of Power

Politicians? Check. Religious figures? Check. Military men? Check.

Citizens? Eh.

Those of us who have been in Lebanon for more than five minutes realize that corruption runs rampant in a country so small, it could fit 26 times over in Texas. People know people who know people, and that’s how anything ever gets done.

Wasta is the unofficial motto of Lebanon…. and it’s all used to achieve one blatantly obvious goal.

Money.
