My Moms stuck in Lebanon

[P.A.R.T.Y]

Probably not the best vacation place at the moment, I'm kinda worried for her safety. Israel need to be a little more careful when they decide to bomb innocent civilians. I mean, who the fuck wants to die because some guerilla group kidnapped some Israelie soldiers. I hate stupid war, soldiers, weapons, etc.

BEIRUT (CP) - Israel unleashed a furious military campaign on Lebanon's main airport, highways, military bases and other targets Thursday, retaliating for scores of Hezbollah guerrilla rockets that rained down on Israel and reached as far as Haifa, its third-largest city, for the first time.


The death toll in two days of fighting rose to 57 people with the sudden burst of violence sending shock waves through a region already traumatized by Iraq and continuing battles in the Gaza Strip between Israel and Hamas.

My buddy Bahaa is Lebanese... He went to visit a few years ago , and when he tried to board his plane the Army arrested him and tried to conscript him. He had some lawyers and other high up's pull some strings and eventually made it home though. What a shitty place to be stuck.

one of my old best friend's is from lebanon. He went there to visit his family, then he got caught in the middle of a gang shootout, that happened out of nowhere, he got shot in the leg. luckily it didnt hit his bone.

best thing to do would be to get her to find the embassy.

dude that totally happened to these two guys from my high school who went back to Lebanon FOR SPRING BREAK. They were both 18 with Lebonese Passports and they got drafted by the military boarding the plan back home.

they had to do their service and then come back the following year to graduate.

Holy crap man, their parents were fuckin' PISSED.

I was reading on CNN that there's like 25,000 americans in Lebanon. WTF? Isn't that a slightly ridiculously high number of american citizens just hanging out abroad?

[P.A.R.T.Y]

Expensive taxis and bribes at the border. The road they took was destroyed hours later, but they managed to escape. There are still 4 million people in Beruit. She says the border is out of control, you can imagine.

He should be ashamed of his government....

[P.A.R.T.Y]

We should be ashamed of the political structure that allows governments to kill civilians in the name of military might.
