Four years on...

Over four ago Rafik Hariri assassinated (Feb 14th, 2005) "By early afternoon on February 14, 2005, the elegant facades of the hotels, fish restaurants and smart artisan shops along West Beirut’s seafront had been blasted beyond recognition. Pictures from the time show the bomb site like an asteroid crater, and surrounding buildings looked more like giant piles of charred matchsticks than the chic spots they had been hours before."
