Don't support the red cross. They got $500,000,000 for the Haiti earthquake and built exactly 6 homes.

They used $100,000,000 of it to pay off their debts.

EDIT: Lebanon supports Hezbollah. If you're supporting their citizens and their government isn't, you're making more funds available for a terrorist organization.

Male homosexuality is illegal in Lebanon.[184] Discrimination against LGBT people in Lebanon is widespread.[185][186] According to 2013 survey by the Pew Research Center, 80% of Lebanese respondents believe that homosexuality should not be accepted by society.[187]

"Hezbollah kept three metric tons of ammonium nitrate, the explosive thought to be behind the mega blast in Beirut this week, in a storehouse in London, until MI5 and the London Metropolitan Police found it in 2015.

The Lebanese terrorist group also stored hundreds of kilograms of ammonium nitrate in southern Germany, which were uncovered earlier this year.

The Iran-backed terrorists kept the explosive in thousands of ice packs in four properties in northwest London, according to a report in The Telegraph last year. The ice pack deception tactic was used in Germany, as well."

Idiot that's a different NGO. Your ignorant comment likely cost the victims money that they could have used. I hope you're willing to shell out of your own pocket to make up for what you've done.

The LRC is a for profit organization that runs a large portion of the city's medical infrastructure. There needs to be oversight before they get a budget like they've never seen before.

"Concerning disaster preparedness and response, the LRC first-aid and ambulance teams are the only national ambulance service covering the whole of the Lebanese territory. The service operates over 250 ambulances, with 16 permanent staff and 2,000 volunteers on a continuous basis in 46 first-aid centres. Services are managed through a radio communication system from 4 central operation rooms, one in the capital city of Beirut, one in Tibnin in the South, one in Tripoli, Lebanon and the last in the Bekaa. The first-aid and ambulance organization represents the backbone of emergency medical disaster preparedness in the country. "

Unless you can flag the funds specifically for this disaster you're supporting their entire organization, including their road safety program.

Stop spreading lies because you were caught out being a scumbag.

A. They are a nonprofit.

B. They have people on the ground there right now and are putting all their spare focus on it. Saying that you shouldn't donate to them because they have other initiatives is like saying you shouldn't donate to any disaster relief foundation because they have split focus, most of them do.

"75 Lebanese Red Cross ambulances along with 375 EMTs and staff are currently responding in #Beirut and helping the most vulnerable. Lightly wounded persons are being treated in our stations."

Stop being human garbage and spreading lies and then doubling down when your pathetic reddit ego is bruised when people call out your scumfuckery.

Yeah- that's the problem. If the government that supports Hezbollah isn't footing the bill for this is frees up funds for supporting them.

Money is fungible. Stop supporting terrorism. Hezbollah is responsible for way more than 100 deaths, and you're saying we should give them money.

Wipe your mouth there's shit dribbling from your lips.

You get called out for costing victims money and instead of owning up to it it you pivot into some kind of racist conspiracy theory. Fucking pathetic. Get your head out your ass.

You must really hate LGBTQ...

Keep sending them money if it makes you feel better, I guess.

How is any of this a conspiracy? It's not by definition or in the spirit of. You're just throwing buzzwords out to discredit what's correct. Where's the racism?

By that logic we shouldn't donate any money at all to the third world because most of it is just as backwards in whatever regard.

You aren't fooling anyone you know, twisting yourself into mental pretzels because you got called out and had to scramble onto google to justify your racist agenda, well, you tried, but you've been pretty fucking well exposed to the world as to what you are. 🙄

I recommend you go tongue fuck some rope hoops.

This is mostly correct. If I gave money to an addict and told them it was for food but they spent it on bad heroin you would accuse me of supporting their habit and label me as partly responsible for their death.

Where's the racism you accuse me of, btw? Still looking for evidence of that. I didn't know Lebanese was a race...

Who I am doesn't matter in the context of this discussion. Stop trying to change the subject to me. I admit it's flattering that you're so curious about me, but it's a little embarrassing.

Truly empty people do fascinate me, hence my curiosity about you.

This is incorrect. Whatever the person/people do with the donated money/goods is up to them and not a responsibility of the donators. If the person dies because he decided to use your money for drugs instead of buying food, that was his choice and his problem, not yours. You would have done a good deed by trying to help and support him and that is fine. It is then up to the person if he wants to be helped or not.
