Wrecking Ball Clears Old Beirut Embassy Ruins
Bulldozers began clearing the former U S Embassy site in Beirut, 11 years after a truck bomb killed 63 people. The seven story ruin in a seafront district symbolized rising pro Iran Shiite fundamentalism and squatters were removed for a new building. The embassy now operates from Ankar in the Beirut suburbs. Islamic Jihad claimed the 1983 bombing, followed by attacks that killed 300 servicemen at a Marine base and a French paratroop compound.
