Lebanese people might be the worst type of breed

It's funny how all these coons that wish they were white keep using the french riots to suck up to cadaans. He should lead by example and book a ticket to beirut if he thinks immigration is bad. At least the "immigrants" he talks about are 3rd and 4th gen and were actually born in the country,

What?
The Phoenicians got it from people of Sinai who got it from the Egyptians 😂.
Not true; the Egyptians were writing using a pictographic/syllabic system (hieroglyphics) and the people of Sinai were simply slaves who would use the pictographic symbol to scribble sounds.. The first proper "alphabet" (Aleph, Bet) that can be found anywhere in history lies with the Phoenicians (modern-day Lebanese)

Wrong! The history of the aphabet starts with the proto Sinaitic script. Even the Yemeni Old South Arabian formed from it including paleo Hebrew and old north Arabian. They all formed from the Old Canaanite scrip also known as proto Sinaitic. Phoenician just get all the cloud tbecause the Greeks borrowed it from them and distributed the knowledge of the alphabet to all Europe via the Roman Empire centuries later.

You are wrong. Old south Arabian is not younger than Phoenician. You made that up. There is no Alphabet without the Proto Sinaitic script. You can’t rewrite history. the Proto-Canaanite, Old Canaanite or Proto-Sinaitic script,[ used in the final stages of the Late Bronze Age, first in either Egypt or Canaan and then in the Syro-Hittite kingdoms, is the oldest fully matured alphabet, and it was derived from Egyptian hieroglyphs.[This is the agreed upon census.

The earliest Old South Arabian inscriptions, dating from the 8th century bce, are in the Minaean dialect.
The earliest Phoenician inscription that has survived is the Ahiram epitaph at Byblos in Phoenicia, dating from the 11th century bce and written in the North Semitic alphabet
Also, what group of people do you think created Proto-Canaanite? It's well-known that it's derived from Egyptian hieroglyphs, but what group of people do you think decided to assign specific sounds to the characters instead of syllables?

Again your wrong. The earliest known example of ancient South Arabic script is a painted pottery fragment from Raven, Hadramawt, Yemen, dated to the late 2nd millennium BC. It has no vowel letters and is marked with matres lectionis. Its mature form reached around 800 BC.

Semitic migrants working in Sinai invented the script. Phoenicians origin is contested but there is a high probability they could have come from Arabia and joined the already established Canaanite tribes as the people from (Arabia) there were excellent traders especially around these times when the alphabet emerged as it was concurrent with the height of the Sabean kingdom. It’s not a coincidence that both these groups developed the alphabet simultaneously indicating they were from the same stock. We also have great number of historians, western and eastern, ancient and modern, and many archaeologists all agree that the first homeland of the Phoenicians was the Arabian Peninsula including ancient Greeks and Persian historians.
