^ Idiot. After our previous conflicts ended, there was enough peace-time for the country to somewhat advance technologically and set up internet access. These conflicts are yet to physically take out the internet links, which are extremely vulernable. In Iraq, in Baghdad, the gunfire never stops yet most people have phones with cameras. Your remark is distasteful and distracts the person from the core of the issue. I'm sorry for your native country's problems but you should be more sensitive and leave the humor for another thread. People are fucking dying you asshole ^

This is fucking awful. That's like an area all of us go to. It's like, supposed to be untouched. I pass by that same exact same exact road to get to my Doctor, to my health gym and some family and friends near by.

in less than 48 hours, two bombs went off - 37 soldiers killed and 100s of civilians injured.

As that lovely Asian dude said in this car commercial half a decade ago

"Only in Lebanon"

Beirut blast

In the capital Beirut, a bomb rocked a shopping area in the mainly Sunni Muslim district of Verdun wounding at least seven people, including two young boys, security sources and witnesses said.

Police said the 10-kg bomb was placed under a car, setting ablaze several vehicles and damaging building

I found it quite amusing that after witnessing such an event, the first thing that popped into his mind was logging online and informing some 2pac fans about what occurred. It's like, "Oh look, I'm so gangster for surviving a bomb explosion. Let me log onto Streethop and try and get some sensitive replies from people who will forget about what happened as soon as they write "are you ok, keep safe" and click 'post quick reply"."

Yeah my post was insensitive and my humor inappropriate, but I prefer it over a "awwwww" any day.

i gotta agree with sofi.... if a bomb went off outside my house the last place i'd be is in my room and online telling people about it....

and honestly, it doesnt bother me... the entire middle east is in shambles... another day, another bomb.... quit fucking reporting it.... there's nothing i can do sitting thousands of miles away.... go out and find the faggot that did this, and do it back to him... see if he likes cars blown up outside his house....

still, of course the media's scrounging the bottom of shitholes for news so of course there was this http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070521/ts_nm/lebanon_fighting_dc_18
