Remember When Saad Hariri Said “I’ll Make Lebanon The Second Dubai”?
Guys, we think our politicians should quit politics and go for comedy because being a shitty comedian is better than being a shitty politician.
Back in 2019, former Prime Minister Saad El Hariri attended the World Government Summit where he talked about making Lebanon the “second Dubai”. Check out the video:
Hilarious considering this was a mere three weeks before the country imploded as our largest financial crisis became apparent. The state was broke, and nobody knew that better than Saad who had been PM a few times.
Of course, users on Twitter couldn’t but react to this throwback. Here’s what some people had to say about Hariri’s ambitious and downright ridiculous statement.
Well Saad, you got pretty close.
