I noticed this too. The way I see it, if the majority of your descent is Semitic and you are indigenous to Lebanon, you are a recent Arab due to the Arab migration during ancient times. The idea of being of French descent sounds absurd. Yes I understand that the Crusades came and the French colonized Lebanon, but a few hundred years of exposure to the French does not change the thousands of years of Arab and Semiticness of Lebanon. The idea of being of Greek descent is quite absurd because Greek rule of the area between Egypt and India has been gone for a while now. And even during Greek rule many people were ‘Greek speaking’ rather than ‘Greek’. If you are a person who is actually just a Greek who recently settled in Lebanon that is a different story. During ancient times the Greeks saw the areas East to mainland Greece as Barbaric(primarily the peoples of present day Anatolia and the former Persian Empire) so the likelihood of a mass migration of Greeks to Shaam isn’t super likely(as
I don’t know why but some people in Egypt, Lebanon, and those countries say that only the golf countries r Arabs. That sounds weird. For example when I lived in Egypt I knew a man there and we used to talk every once in a while. He told me one time that Egypt isn’t an Arab country only golf countries r. Not only him I’ve seen others too.
