are lebanese people racist against Pakistanis?

now its no secret that Lebanon is genarally racist against dark skinned africans and Asians. But if i were to go to Lebanon right now, would i have any problems? I am Pakistani ( my skin is light brownish tan...not that it means anything) please give me the most honest answer, and dont say " Just because a few people are racist doesnt mean all people are" ... No there is a differance between a few random incidents of racism vs. an entire cultural mindset. If Lebanon is racist, is Syria or any of the neighboring arab countries any better ?

    In arabic countries we say that Lebanese are kind people (which they r) they r so classic and friendly people in the arab world...I dont know what the first person who answered ur question said about Saudi arabians and Gulf people cuz we consider them the elegant arabs and they are not racist (since they are rich and care about fashion alot) anyways out of subject...nuh the last thing we (arabs) think about is the colors cuz we come up with different nation and tradition....u will love it in lebanon...Syrian are considered the Arab's men they are tough and strong, u need to catch up with their work if u want to be there

    arite well lets just be honest.. yes. if you go to lebanon, you will get starred by most ( not everyone ) but i dont think you would notice it because lebanese people have enough respect not to do it so bluntly. and oh ya, UAE would be cool for u cos a lot of pakistanis are there. dont go to syria or jordan cos they have kinda the same customs as lebanese so ull prolly get discriminated there too..

    Syrian, Lebanese and Iranians are all aryans for the most part yes there are some expection but over all like the Pakistanis who have similar characteristics physically (ex Lighter Skin, Hair texture etc) they tend to be more brotherly toward them I mean not all pakistanis are from india thats a major misconception to date many of them have Iraqi-Irani-Afghan roots.

  • I'm Lebanese and I can honestly say, we are probably some of the most friendly ppl you'll meet. We love everbody, ppl may look at u weird or stare it's only because your not lebanese and ther just curious. Most Lebanese have white skin actually, but some are dark.

    I am in Saudi Arabia and till now I meet any arab man they are so nice to me and even they are not sure that I am from Pakistan. Saudi says I am saudi while Syrian and Egyptian says that I am Syrian. I tell them that I am Pakistani but they do not believe.

    yes i am pakistani and i went to lebanon many times

    many people are nice and welcoming and want to know you and about your country if it is muslim and things they hear on news

    but that is about it, you cant be more friendly or develop closeness

    unfortunately though they are nice but they would never accept you coz of your different looks and color
