The U.S. recently [in 1982] tried to fight a war there to protect Israel, but they made a big mistake & their soldiers all housed themselves in the same building, which was blown up with a car bomb.

(Techi: I'll still get A+ I think.) I don't know how I could give you any more help than I did. It's almost as easy as saying‚ "Where was Joan of Arc from?" Or, "What was George Washington's first name?" (Techi: It was the Assyria one.) Oh, yes. Sorry about that. But you'll remember that after this.
