Turmoil in Lebanon...Again

As most of you know, the situation within the Middle East, particularly Lebanon, is extremely unstable and volatile. As a promoter of peace, I continue to pray for the day of international peace and for people to compromise, rather than kill, in order to promote the end of human race destruction.

Over the past few days, gunfire once again filled the atmosphere in Beirut at a Palestinian camp housing over 400,000 refugees. U.S. aid began flooding in via cargo planes in order to aid the ever-so vulnerable Lebanese democratic government and army. You can read on here.

What is it with these extremists? What is it with their mentality, state of mind, and culture? I guess I"ll never understand it. I'll never understand the attraction to killing innocent people and overthrowing governments promoting equality and peace throughout a country. I find more and more of myself wanting the extremist and the terrorists to leave Lebanon with all their money and leave the native, peaceful, God-fearing, and hardworking Lebanese to the land that is truly theirs.
