Syria entered Lebanon in 1976 and caused all type of civil war in Lebanon by having factions fighting each other for 15 years. In 1991, Syria put a puppet government that oppresses the Lebanese people who are now revolting against the puppets and their masters. Syria is stealing over 50 cents for every dollar produced in Lebanon through extortion exercised by their horrible and oppressive secret services (AL Mukhabarat).

I lived for 22 years in Lebanon and during the civil war, please tell me about your extensive experience in the Lebanese affairs.

I have never seen a single American defending the Syrian terrorist regime and its brutal occupation in Lebanon except you. Even liberals do not dare to defend this Syrian Baath terrorist regime. When I said you have the most twisted logic on FR, I mean it.

Don't waste your breath on Destro. He hates the US. He misses the good old days of the Politburo in Moscow when the Slavic race was marching to world domination peace.

Syria was invited in by the Christian president because his Christian faction was losing to the Muslims. Whatever puppet system the Syrians put in place - itkept you Lebanese from killing each other for two decades now. Is it time for Syria to leave? Probably - but do they leave behind a Lebanon better off or worse off? Did they at least do some good?

Question. How are the district lines for Parliament drawn? Have the Syrians forced them to be favorable to Damascus' interests? When all these Cedar Revolution folks vote, will they be able to give rise to the opposition or are the lines drawn so their strength will be totally diluted?
