1. It's a helluva lot harder to think that way |

when you have connections to people in one or both locations. My friend is from Lebannon, now living here and married, but her family is still in Beirut. Christian family, does amazing social service work where they live, but live 10 miles from the airport. I haven't heard an update from her today about her family...there may be no update to give if the phones aren't working. If we could all only put a familiar face on the conflict, we would look at it so very differently...
