thank you for your concern. ive followed the thread, so im well aware that not everyone here thinks that the bombardments are justified.
i guess it's frustration stemming from the fact that im half a world away and i cant do anything about it. locked in by air sea and land by a bullying neighbour. their dream holiday turned into a nightmare.
many of my family members are holidaying there at the moment (other than my in laws) i have 3 uncles and an aunt in Mina which is in Tripoli as well as my wife and inlaws. (all up i have about 17 immediate family members in tripoli, not to mention the cousins and 2nd cousins and huge extended family all lebanese families have) so its quite daunting everytime i hear an update on the situation. ive also got distant relatives that live in the south, but i dont know much about their situation. last night it took me an hour and a half of constant dialling-redialling before i got through, so the phone lines are congested or down. the next worst thing the israelis could do is knock out the communication towers..then we'd really be fucked.
my thoughts are with Ktspktsp and his family. you really do know who your friends are when they call you to make sure everything is ok. even if its a quick phone call.
