Beirut Diary Online [formerly New York Diary Online] is now focused on what's going on in Beirut and the Middle East, and reflect the viewpoint of an adult adoptee from Lebanon who has since moved back to Beirut. Many of the diary entries have been taken down for personal reasons. However, after the Israeli war on Lebanon during the summer of 2006 I started posting again. Those entries start on July 14, 2006. Opinions are strictly my own. Thanks for reading.
