In 2005, 1.5 million Lebanese took to the streets to expel the foreign occupation.

Hence the phrase Independence 2005 on billboards, pamphlets, stickers et al.


For the 2006 Winter Collection, Aishti (aka AIZone [Aishti for the younger crowd]) decided to run an Ad Campaign titled "Dependence 2006".

How lovely.

How sad.

How true.


In 2005 we fought for our Independence from foreign occupation only to replace it in 2006 with Dependence on consumerism?


This is the AIZone Generation. How tasteless.


And then, shouldn't we be more preoccupied with the Gulf Arabs, who just happen to be making BILLIONS off of $60 a barrel, and buying every bit of land/life within our borders?

The Germans sure are preoccupied: Porsche saving VW


Independence 2005. What a joke.
