I endured the parade of nations on the opening night of the Olympics so I could root for the Lebanese team. But I’m not sure I wanted the kind of publicity we got on Friday Night. Ziad Richa was the proud flagbearer, whose event for the Olympics is Skeet Shooting. His story is extraordinary, but “shooting” and “Lebanon” is not good for the tourism industry.
