Beirut aka "Homeland" TV series

There are those that are now calling for an end to the TV series because they say it gives the wrong impression of Beirut. Well from what I know about past and present history of Beirut the show though considered dramatic series, I consider it an historical present time documentary.

Any investigation into the bombing will be solved about the same time as the Bulgarian bombing is solved, i.e., approximately November 2028.
