Lebanon wants peace. It is time to let Lebanon live

Photo of the Mudeirij bridge (mudairij), the highest in the Middle East ( 71 meters high )
A sad example of the needless Hezbollah-Israeli war is the destruction of this Mdeirij Bridge.
The bridge is on the main highway connecting Beirut and Damascus and was the result of a 4-year joint development venture with Italy and considered vital to the economy of Lebanon. The bridge was rendered unusable in the first days of the conflict in July 2006

Fidar Bridge bombed
On August 5, 2006, Israel bombed several bridges in the Christian area north of Beirut in retaliation
for rockets that fell on Israeli cities

While fuel depots are up in smoke from a previous strike,

Leaflets & Flyers dropped from Israeli aircraft addressing Lebanese citizens explained that the destruction of Lebanon is the fault of Hassan Nasrallah and that he should have chosen negotiations for the Lebanese detainees from the prisons of Israel rather than an attack on Israel.
The end of the flyer reads: "Hassan is playing with fire and for this Lebanon is burning. Hassan bet on your future and here you are paying the price"
(August 2006)
