Things are moving very rapidly in Lebanon right now. Read the article and follow the links to text and photographs regarding today's no confidence vote, the Lebanese Tent City, possible confrontations with Syrian security forces, and a general strike or business slowdown. The Lebanese slogan for their revolution is "Enough," (written in English in some of the linked photos) which refers, not to the recent movie starring Jennifer Lopez, but to the Lebanese attitude toward occupation.

The PubliusPundit guy thinks the revolution will happen today, and maybe he's right.

Thanks for this post. We sure are seeing some great things going on in the world. At lightening speed it seems.

People will die, inevitably. The movement of Lebanon away from Syria will not be allowed by the Syrian Generals who merely consider Lebanon as a forward base aginst Israel. This will get very ugly before it gets any better. The U.S. may have to get involved before it's finished.

Times, they are a changin
