Just watching CNN. They Pro-Syrian government has just resigned. Huge celebrations in Beirut.

Mod note: On CNN's banner:
Lebanon’s pro-Syrian prime minister, Omar Karami, announces his resignation and that of his government. Details soon.

Wow. First the Taliban, then Saddam, then Libya, then Yassir That's My Baby. Now, Assad is feeling the heat. These are historic times.

Einstein once said that the definition of insanity was doing the same thing again and again, while expecting different results.

President Bush broke the insanity of Middle East "talks." Fifty years of "talks" got us nothing. He had the courage to change the paradigm.

Historic times, indeed.

THANKS!

Now I can be serious.
This is great news!

Tehran, are you watching!

The independent government of Lebanon just gave in to imperialist twice non-elected Bush.

Talk about cognitive dissonance. Screw'em. They're not only rotten human beings, they're irrelevant, too.

What was that tune the British played when they surrendered at Yorktown The world turned upside down..

We are living in historic times.

Oh, good!

I hope you get to see some of the demonstrations and happiness...pure joy.

[Modok]

Excellent news!

Fox just made the comparison calling this 'The Berlin Wall' moment of the Middle East

JMO, the most compelling crumbling of the Berlin Wall moment was in Romania when dirtbag caecesceau and his wife are out on the balcony doing the Eva peron bit and it didn't work and you see the fear on his face and then the people peacefully took over the communist propaganda TV staion while it was on the air.

"Do you think they got wind of another "Butt Stomping International" franchise opening up in their neighborhood?"

If not they are not paying attention!

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

DU says Bush's fault!!!!

And they are right!!!

[BigSkyFreeper]

The most fantastic part about this is, not a single shot was fired. FNC just now goes to the story teasing it with the banner "Turmoil In Lebanon", like everything has gone to hell in a handbasket.

[Destro]

Not as impressive as it sounds if you understand how parl. govt works.

[My2Cents]

It's a quagmire.

[Marysecretary]

WOW! Thank you, President Bush!

Just da#m! I guess that Michael Jackson's circus is more important than this little insignificant historic Kodak moment. The nets really need to re-evaluate thier priorities.

[Howlin]

I bet that there are more than 20,000 people in the streets now.

[lonevoice]

Ping!

OMG......look at Fox! This is amazing!!!

Look at all the people in the streets!!!

Even the reporters are floored.

The one on Fox just said "this is something that hasn't been seen in the Middle East in years!"

[Eagle of Liberty]

Man......what a bunch of tree-hugging crybabies.

I bet most of the DU'ers are sucking their thumbs, holding their blankees, praying that the big, bad monster will stay in the closet.
