October 23, 1983 – Never Forgotten

By Scott

At about 6:22 a.m. on October 23, 1983, a suicide bomber drove a 19-ton yellow Mercedes stake-bed truck into the U.S. Marine compound at Beirut International Airport.

A Walk for Peace

By Scott

No speeches.No megaphones.No political motives.No religious campaigning.No racial narratives. And yet—look at the people who walk beside them. A living mosaic of colors, backgrounds, beliefs, cultures, and economic walks of life. Without issuing a single demand or slogan, they quietly demonstrate exactly what this country is longing for.
