Lisa Reports from the Israel/Lebanon Border

My friend Lisa, a freelance journalist who lives in Tel Aviv, reports in her blog On the Face about her experiences on the border of Israel and Lebanon in an article titled Welcome to the Shooting Gallery. The stories and photos are a mix of the destruction brought about by war, such as this picture of Kibbutz Kfar Giladi on fire:

…the often-surreal world of geopolitics, as shown in this strange-but-funny sign on the fence demarcating the border:

…and how even amidst all the altillery fire, some businesspeople try to go about with the daily routine, as shown in this photo of the breakfast spread at a guest house in Metulla called Beit Shalom, which translates from Hebrew as “House of Peace”:

Lisa updates her Flickr photostream regularly, so be sure to check that out too.

Stay safe, Lisa!
