Have We Become A Nation Of Beggars?

The Lebanese Government is calling for international help after the killing of UNIFIL soldiers.

After a special cabinet meeting, the Lebanese government appealed for outside help to prevent the country and the region from spiraling out of control.

So let me get this straight: We need Help to protect the UNIFIL, whose initial mission, after much fanfare about how “beefed up” it was, is to help us keep the peace. In other words, do we need help for those who are helping us? 

Which leads to this other question: In the event of future trouble, who will help those helping those who are helping us?
