#1 Fingers crossed....

I actually remember when Beirut was the "Paris of the East" (meant as a compliment). Get rid of the islamist/terrorist/baathist bastards and they could be again.

#4 careful - Hezbollah is well-armed, loyal to Iran, not Lebanon, and willing to do their dirty work. They know the Lebanese nationalists will be coming for them next. I'd keep an eye on any movements from the south and Bekaa...
