My message to you today is to be proud of your Lebanese origins. Lebanon will never die. Throughout its six-thousand-year history, armies entered Lebanon and other armies left, but Lebanon remained steadfast and continued to live. Thank you for your support of the ALCC, and thank you for attending with us today. I wish you a pleasant time, full of joy and delight. Enjoy the festival and celebrate together.
This event is not merely a festival; it is an expression of solidarity, compassion, and our permanent responsibility toward our motherland.
We gather today to celebrate our love for dear Lebanon and our commitment to it, and to express our gratitude to America. We meet at a difficult time that Lebanon is going through. Our country has been in a state of war for more than half a century, and today it faces extremely difficult circumstances and existential challenges that threaten its entity and future. Lebanon needs us today more than ever. For this reason, part of the proceeds of this festival will be allocated to support needy Lebanese families and children battling cancer in Lebanon.
