You know, John, before you get to excited, you might want to consider what
is happening in Lebanon. Lebanon has either been a functioning democracy
or in a state of Civil War since it's independence. I would suggest that
a ex-Prime Minister's assassination, and various factions resorting to
street demonstrations, shows how precarious Lebanon's situation is.
Fortunately, the demonstrations have been peaceful, but unfortunately,
that could change. Before you celebrate Syria's withdrawal, consider they
were the stabilizing force that ended the 15 year Civil War.


Who's celebrating?

Last week the libs were inundating the news with word of a pro-Syrian
demonstration that appeared 'anti-Bush'. This week there's another
demonstration, about twice as big, that's 'anti-Syrian'.

Why are the libs, including the news media, so mum? *That's* my question. Why is
the news not reported the same way?


Of course, those of us who understand how these things work, already
know the answer.
