"Full Program for Mrs. Sanyurah." As you remember, Hariri rag, Al-Mustaqbal, reported last week that Laura Bush had organized a "full program" for Mrs. Fu'ad Sanyurah. Today, An-Nahar reported that Laura Bush received Mrs. Sanyurah and her daughter, Zeina, for 45 minutes and that the two women held "talks about what unites Lebanon and US in terms of civilizational and cultural values....And there was a talk about the joint interests and the role that is played by women in the renaissance of societies., and the role that the Lebanese mother is played in preserving the unity of the family and its tradition". So much to talk about: But what are the Lebanese family traditions? Is that a reference to transmitting Hummus recipes from one generation to another? Or is that a reference to the tradition of sectarian hatred and incitement?
