Taleb seething every time someone calls the Lebanese dialect "Arabic" is hilarious, he's aggressively anti-arabic.
The aramaic he studies is "syriac" which is still spoken by some minorities in the Levant region.

They used to speak it in the mountains above Tripoli, Lebanon but it died out about a century ago. As far as I know it's down to just one town in Syria now.
