When we first saw this piece of installation art/monument, Mary Ann didn't realize it was supposed to be a boot on top of the troop transport. Therefore, until someone can come up with a better interpretation, you are hereby notified that it is in fact, a boot. For those of you unfamiliar with the history of South Lebanon, this is with reference to the retreat of Isreal.

The ratio of political posters to commercial advertisements is getting out of balance here. Bonus points if you can spot the fake plant.

It is interesting to see what the Lebanese focus their attention to. I would imagine that the issues with Israel are significant but what does this "monument" really have to do with expressing their views on the issue. Does the Arabic statement on the side help with the intent of the monument? Is the artificial tree to our right of the poster of the man at the end of the road?? Grandpa Dan
I think the tree is also to the right of the man on the poster.
