    Karin, this is to answer your question about what it would mean to change the law, PRACTICALLY speaking. This fight is not just a matter of principle. Britney, the video is subtitled ;)

    zeina this video is incredible. i had no idea that you needed to have a certain amount of money in the bank in order to obtain a business visa...

    Exactly 15,635 were for Muslim women (38.8% to Palestinians), 2,225 for Christians. And those are only the registered ones. So if a Christian were against granting women the lebanese citizenship for this reason and they were to read this, you'd be giving them a heart attack.:) And this is not just for political reasons. Because as Dima said in class, the percentage between Muslims and Christians will more or less remain the same. Or so it seems, (I haven't finished the full report yet) I posted the actualy UNDP report which was summarized in the video.

    I'm going to face a similar problem when I come to apply for jobs because I don't have the nationality although my mother does. Companies here prioritize Lebanese citizens. This is an awesome video Zeina :)
