To Catch A Peacekeeper

Is Lebanon short on decent men? Just ask Nancy Azzi
According to this story on The Daily Star, Nancy bought a blue bikini (same shade as the UN blue helmet) and drove all the way from Jounieh to Tyr to catch a glimpse of Italian and Spanish Soldiers arriving to man the new UNIFIL.
Of course Azzi wants more than just a glimpse:
“Azzi added that she hopes to have more than a “meeting” with the Italian troops; she is actually hoping to find “the man of her dreams” among the 1,000 Italian soldiers deployed to date.
Of all the nationalities, the Italians are the most in demand, according to the Star:
A random polling of women interviewed in the South unanimously voted the Italian troops as “the sexiest,” with a few gushing over recent photographs in the media of French Foreign Legion soldiers in shorts and muscle shirts rebuilding ruined bridges.
They even love kids
The poor soldiers’ wives and girlfriends were probably thinking their loved ones are heading for a safe place where women stay home.
How wrong they were…
