As if to abandon my earlier post about not generalising, all the Lebanese people I've met are lovely people.

I also find Iranian people to be very smart and nice.

Obviously I'm not talking about the extreme factions here that exist in any society.

I think it's ok to generalise if you're saying something nice :)
