Excellent article. Really captures not just Beirut, but the oddities of being an Israeli there and how that limited your experience. I was sad for Beirut's loss of potential, yet also sad for the inanity of the anti-Israel policies. Well done. Even better than the Hebrew version (which you clearly expanded the article from). But the parts that were the same were really close. Your command of both Hebrew and English is astounding. Nothing was lost in translation!
