In Amman now


I arrived last night in Amman to my friend's house, where I've been received in the Arabic tradition, that is to say with open arms and unlimited hospitality. I'll be figuring out my ticket back to Paris and should be back in France in the next week or so.

Yesterday was a bloody day for Lebanon, even more so than "usual." At least 55 Lebanese civilians were killed in Israeli attacks, bringing the toll up to over 300. The Israelis also attacked Achrifieh, which is a chic Christian neighborhood of Beirut.

The U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, Louise Arbour, has spoken out agains the assaults by Israel and Hizbollah:

Indiscriminate shelling of cities constitutes a foreseeable and unacceptable targeting of civilians... Similarly, the bombardment of sites with alleged military significance, but resulting invariably in the killing of innocent civilians, is unjustifiable.
Responding to complaints that Israel has been using disproportionate force, Dan Gillerman, the Israeli ambassador to the UN, had the following to say: "You're damn right we are."

In other news, The New York Times published a letter to the editor that I sent them the other day.

I've been told that El Pais linked to my blog, but I haven't been able to find it, so a link would be appreciated.

An Australian friend of mine who has stayed in Beirut is also keeping a blog. You can check it out here.
