Nobody Lives Here Anymore

"NAHR AL-BARED (Near Tripoli) – Drove north today with a Lebanese soldier in a Plymouth Neon (a folding-stock Kalashnikov on the backseat and a Fabrique National 9mm pistol tucked beneath the front) to an army camp in Tripoli. There I met with Gen. Majzoub Moustapha, commanding general of the north region of Lebanon.

The general briefed me regarding the battlefield at Nahr al-Bared, near his camp, and what I would see today as the first American journalist to visit the site of Lebanon's defeat of Al Qaeda-affiliate Fatah al Islam."
