The Sehnaoui family is very powerful and well known in Lebanon. The guy works for the cousin of the owner of the bank. People aren't as gullible as we imagine them to be, but it's a good story for PR, resold over and over.

Interesting connection but it’s kind of a big jump to say it was all a PR stunt, no?
