AL JAZEERA:
A coalition of Lebanese groups, angered by the recent assassination of a prominent anti-Syrian journalist, called today for the ousting of Lebanon’s pro-Syrian President Emile Lahoud. The call came as anti-Syrian youth activists protested in Lebanon’s capital, Beirut, late today to press for Lahoud’s resignation and removal of pro-Syrian agents in Lebanon’s security services.The inevitable march of freedom continues - and it continues to SQUEEZE Assad. I expect a violent backlash by Assad's agents - in Lebanbion or Israel - very soon. STAY TUNED.
Today’s meeting of the coalition of anti-Syrian legislators and politicians came after An-Nahar newspaper general manager and legislator Gibran Tueni was killed in a December 12 car bombing. Tueni was the third anti-Syrian critic killed in similar circumstances since the February 14 blast that killed ex-Lebanese premier Rafik Hariri in Beirut.
Sounds like the sunnis are complaining of vote fraud, much like the Dems in Florida. Thing is, once we transition most military action to the Iraqi national army, they will hit the sunnis much harder than we ever did. if the sunnis do move outside the democratic process, they will do so at their peril. your thoughts?

i agree.
ReplyDeleteshould they have to, the i.n.a. and the peshmurgha will utterly destroy the sunnis.
it is best if this bloodbath is avoided. but it may happen despite our best efforts.
it is best if this happens after we leave.
i believe that the sunnis muist disarm - ir they will USE their militias the way hams and hizbAllah and the iRA did: as a threat, which is FUNDAMENTALLY undemocratic ands anti-democratic.
