That is not life for much of the world. Just on television last night there was a scene of sunbathers in Lebanon suddenly interrupted as artillery rounds began to go off a block away. There is an article on page 1 of todays Washington Post entitled "There Were Buckets of Blood." I read a description by a woman talking about a refugee camp from which she escaped. She said. "For every bucket of water. there were two buckets of blood." Think about that. to live in a place where for over a month there has been fighting. where every time people went to get water there were snipers firing at them. as she said. talking now about women who went out to get canisters of water: "They always got one or two. Its a miracle I am still alive." Makieh sighed and burst into tears.
