In Response To: MAPS OF VIOLENCE IN ACTION - "BOMBS, RUBBLE & POETS" *PIC* (StClair)

On the above maps you can see that the IDF is now and then shelling certain places near Baalbek. This the city that prayed to the "gods" from the heavens and built beautiful temples for Venus and for Jupiter many aeons ago... and I thought maybe you like to see the beauty of the Bekaa Valley and what is at stake there. It is a sanctuary of nature and of ancient history: On this site link -- http://www.galenfrysinger.com/bekaa_valley.htm -- you can wander around virtually & visit most of the Middle East now and then in pictures and short comments. It always helps to see with your eyes what one is talking about in terms of lands and people -- their history and culture. . "Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire. A mystic sits inside the burning. There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that imagination loves to watch. But it's a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. Stay here at the flame's core." - Rumi Here is my own sanctuary sight at sunset:
