Watching Beirut die
We went to Beirut to film a TV show about the city's newly vibrant culinary and cultural scene. Then the bombs started falling, and we could only stand on the barricades of our hotel balcony and watch it all disappear -- again.
By Anthony Bourdain [2006-07-28]

    There were many many many striking things in that article.

    I am only going to comment on one thing, however, that struck me:

    How we have such wonderful people in the US Armed Services who are being turned into Monsters by Bush and Co. It's so sad. I honestly believe the majority of them set out to do good things and protect us. What Bush is doing to them is like if NYC sent the FDNY out to kill homeless people because sometimes they start fires that destroy buildings or disrupt the subway system. I mean, what glory and good would there be in that?

    I guess I would comment on the situation but it honestly makes my head spin. One thing I do know is that Bush and Condi's gloating mugs really turn my stomach at this moment.
