Announcement Introducing r/lebanonLounge, Where Every Day Is No Politics Sunday
Hey everyone,
We heard your numerous requests for a space where Lebanese people can connect beyond politics and news, and we are happy to introduce r/lebanonLounge, a new sister sub connected to r/lebanon, run by the same mod team as this one with some new faces joining in.
The idea is simple: a lighter space for the Lebanese community to meet people, make friends, post dating introductions, plan meetups, ask for relationship advice, talk about music, movies, anime, gaming, hobbies, gossip, and just unwind without politics or news taking over every conversation.
A quick overview of our rules:
- No politics or news
- No NSFW content or hookups
- Be polite and respectful. This is a non negotiable.
- Dating posts are for Lebanese people only, whether local, expat, or diaspora
- No ads, sales, or promotions
If you are looking for friends, community, conversation, or just a more relaxed Lebanese corner of Reddit, come join us at r/lebanonLounge.
See you there ☕🇱🇧
- r/lebanon and r/lebanonLounge Mod Team

Discussion Army helicopter going wild
Is it normal for choppers to fly so low above residential buildings? Showing off, making circles above my head like it's Tom cruise driving it? I've never seen one come this close, or maneuver this crazy, I'm in the chouf area, sitting on the roof, and I swear if the pilot hadn't pulled up last minute I was ready to jump and take cover, he circled above the town a few times then flew towards beirut

Politics Should Lebanon agree to view its Jewish citizens as Israelis?
Yesterday a "prisoner exchange" deal was struck between Lebanon and the colony, whereupon it would agree to release Lebanese prisoners in return for Lebanon finding the bodies of Jewish Lebanese citizens and assisting the colony in recovering those bodies. Notice the word "recovering": This is the essence of Zionism, that Israel represents all Jewish citizens, and that those Jewish Lebanese are not Lebanese but Israeli.
Settings aside the importance of efforts to recover Lebanese citizens held hostage by the colony, should Lebanon agree to view its Jewish citizens as Israelis, and to hand the bodies of Lebanese citizens to a foreign government that is also occupying its land?
Note: The mods said I was not allowed to present my agenda in the post, only in the comments, so I shared it in the first comment.
Help / Question Anyone from Hasroun/Bsharri know where old Maronite church records are kept?
Hi everyone! I’m researching my Lebanese family history and have traced part of my family back to Hasroun, Bsharri.
I’m currently trying to figure out where the old Maronite baptism and marriage registers from Hasroun are kept, particularly records from the mid-to-late 1800s. I haven’t been able to find these records digitized online.
The families I’m researching are mainly Barakat (Barket) and Farah.
One ancestor I’m particularly trying to verify is Kabril/Gabriel Barket Barakat, who was reportedly born in Hasroun around 1855. My family tree lists his father as Assad/Asaad Bechara, but I’m hoping to find Kabril’s baptism record to confirm his parents.
I also have Nazira (Sara) Barket Barakat, daughter of Kabril, who reportedly married Michael Joseph Farah in Hasroun on September 18, 1898. A marriage record from Hasroun could also be extremely helpful.
I’ve learned that the historic Maronite churches in Hasroun may be the key, but I’m not sure whether the old registers are still held locally, by the Joubbé diocese, or in another church archive.
Does anyone from Hasroun or the Bsharri area know where these old parish registers are kept, or know a priest, church office, local historian, or genealogist I could contact?
I’d be incredibly grateful for any direction. I’m trying to reconnect the pieces of my family’s history in Lebanon and hopefully trace this branch further back.
Thank you!

Yeah it's a bit late, but I was waiting for someone else to post this. I can't understand how the hell these two found themselves in Kfartibnit, or how someone can be so lucky and unlucky at the same time. Cause they found themselves in Kfartibnit, but they weren't murdered.
Edit: The subtitles are auto generated and completely inaccurate. Just ignore them.

Food and Cuisine Okay I actually gave it a try.
This is "Pepsi Gold Can" (Translated) and it's apparently a limited edition can imported from Vietnam.
[EDIT: looks like it was created to celebrate Tết (the Vietnamese Lunar New Year).]
Totters labels it as "Ginger Gold" so I thought it would have a ginger flavor but didn't really taste like it.
I looked it up, and it's supposed to taste similar to a regular Pepsi but with more caffeine, so you'd think it would be like a Pepsi Zero/Black but nope.
Instead it tastes closer to the cola gummy candies, same as Zee Cola but lighter and smoother in flavor.

Help / Question Emergency Medical Coverage for Visitors
Are there any companies that provide short-term medical insurance for visitors to Lebanon, given the current Level 4 “Do Not Travel” advisory?
It seems that no foreign insurance company provides coverage under these circumstances. Are there any local insurance companies in Lebanon that offer emergency medical coverage to foreign visitors or non-residents?
Appreciate the help.
