It is actually happening because they finally opened the door and the law is changing to recognize our birthright. I am honestly still in shock since this took so much energy but we really did it and now our children have a future back home. Please keep watching the official …

If you are of Lebanese descent, and you believe that ALL people of Lebanese descent all over the world should be able to register their marriages and children in Lebanon because it is their BIRTH RIGHT; if you WANT to register in Lebanon because you care, because it is your right, please sign this petition and share it with all your friends and relatives! Thank you!
-- Neemat Frem.

[Spanish Version: LA CIUDADANÍA LIBANESA: Solicitud un minuto que puede cambiar vidas.

Si usted es libanés y cree que TODAS las personas de descendencia libanesa de todo el mundo deberían obtener la ciudadanía porque es su DERECHO DE NACIMIENTO; Si usted es descendiente de libanés, y QUIERE su ciudadanía, DESEA registrarse en el LÍBANO porque le interesa, porque es su derecho, ya que la doble nacionalidad es legal en su país de residencia, por favor complete este formulario y compártalo con sus amigos y familiares. Gracias!]

[P.D: Si después de haber llenado la solicitud se le pide una colaboración, considere que esto no tiene absolutamente ninguna relación con la misma. Por favor ignórelo.]

*Currently, the Lebanese law to register vital records in Lebanon and/or regain citizenship is so complicated for immigrants who left before 1932 that the process, in some cases, might take years or fail to achieve satisfactory results. We hope, by this petition, to lobby the parliament to ratify the Lebanese Nationality Draft Law which was Approved by the Cabinet in December 2011 but not put for vote in the parliament. By signing this petition, you will be helping us with this mission to grant Lebanese emigrants their most basic right of registration.

I just looked at the screen and saw the counter hit one thousand signatures and I really had to step away for a minute because my hands were shaking. I honestly thought only a few people would care about this birthright issue but clearly I was wrong and that makes me feel sort of overwhelmed in the best possible way.

A hundred signatures already which feels like a whole mountain of people for something I started on a whim during a long night of thinking about our birthright. I am honestly just floored that so many of you care about this as much as I do though I really shouldn't be surprised given how much we all value our roots.
