I hope you know more about monetary matters than you do about the strategic value of the airport in Beirut. If the Israelis had left that airport open, it could be used by Syria (or another Islamofascist country) as a base of air operations against Israel.
I would suggest you contact the IMF for guidance, son. When they don't help you, call this number: 1-800-USDODNOW. Good luck,
You have GOT to be joking! Syria use the Beirut airport? Now THAT would be justification for bombing, and it's only about ten minutes for the IAF to get here. There was no rush.
