Haven't been there since '69. Someday I'd like to see Baalbeck again, but I imagine tourism is a little down right now.
You have a beautiful country. I hope someday *all* the foreigners who do not come in peace will leave the Lebanon and let if return to being the properous place i remember. I think one of the best meals I ever had was in a meze place up near Casino du Libon - Yildirim? Yildiz? something like that.
Charles Hankey
Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
