The two Chinooks against the Beirut skyline is just a fabulous picture. It is just great to hear from you. We surmised you were making your way to the Orient Queen. What an experience you have had.

In photo "Chinook hovers above an unidentified warship" the background city looks as if it is built into hillside, while in other photos it is looking as if on flat ground. Did you make that "hover" photo from another helicopter or maybe high deck of a ship?

I just went back and read your posts over the past few days. Thanks for the added perspective on the situation.
I've been arguing with a fellow conservative that suggested that since many Lebanese supported Hezbollah, then the Americans there probably did to and the US shouldn't go to great lengths to extract them (more of a collateral damage argument for "accepting" that other locals are openly engaged in terrorist plotting/activities).
I suspect a lot of people with these opinions are frustrated by past situations where being concerned about civilian casualties meant not doing anything at all.
Anyways, thanks for the first hand reporting.

Glad you are safe. Good pics!

Looking forward to the other photos.
I'm curious, after all you went through, do you think you will return to work in Lebanon in a year or so?

Glad you're okay and out, and great pictures! Thanks! I've been waiting for the 'international community' to decide the US owes it to Lebanon to take in those million or so 'displaced' Lebanese since wej supported Israel. Plus, now we're selling them bunker busters (precision guided). (Dead silence from the 'international community' about rockets and IED's found in that Lebanese mosque. They had nothing to say about the bunker found underneath the mosque Israelis targeted as a Hezbollah command center.) All mosques have bunkers, right?
