About 15-20 years ago, Soviet scientists were intrigued by a large group of centigenerians in the Caucasus, and it made for good propaganda for awhile about the benefits of Socialism. After independence, Georgian investigators reevealed that most of the "100 years plus" citizens in question had been 30-40 year olds during the war who had forged or altered their documents to avoid military service, and another large group who were trying to qualify for "early" pensions.
The deal with this lady was probably a scam forty years back to qualify for some benefits that Lebanon offered when it was still a country.

I'm hoping to keep it all together and make 60 someday. I'm just hoping to reach 59 on the 29th of this month.

There's a "flying carpet" joke there someplace...

You'll have to change your user name. I suggest staying 58 forever.

Agreed....I bet she was born in 1897....and somehow they recorded the documents as 1877.

I don't know. Isn't that White House reporter older than this lady? She sure looks like she is.

My Great Grandmother died last month at 105.
As a way to reflect we went through all of the amazing things she would have went through in life. McKinley was President when she was born. WWI and WWII, Korean War, Vietnam, Gulf Storm, Pearl Harbor, 9/11 etc. It is simply amazing.

I always see chinese, japanese, european and american women who are in the running for the worlds oldest.
I've never seen or heard of a muslim and since a part of the philosophy of their cult is to lie to infidels I believe this is just a scam.

All she needs is Botox treatments and teeth to join Kerry on his ticket.
