Perhaps one of the most outstanding losses to spot is the number of people who died as well as those who were displaced who were holding regular jobs and contributing to the nation's economy. I had two friends who worked in some Lebanese hotels but took off as soon as the bombs began dropping near the airport. If they didn't leave for the US (one lived in Maine, and the other in California), soon enough, there would be no flight to take them back here anymore, as the Beirut International Airport had already been blasted.
