Re: Crunch time in Lebanon: Pro-Syrian protests, Tuesday 8th March

The biggest demonstration in the middle east, millions out on the streets and not a sausage in the mainstream 'coalition of the shilling' media.

Yet we got 24/7 on the 100 iraqi's who were flown in to cheer a statue going down.

We have to do some real deep soul-searching, yessum real deep...

Just a note, an IDF general a couple of months ago said that it's to Israelis advantage for Syria to maintain it's presence in Lebanon.

Re: Crunch time in Lebanon: Pro-Syrian protests, Tuesday 8th March

have you looked at the size of that crowd? how can anyone suggest that the crowd of a million can be 'orchestrated' while a much smaller crowd was a show of longing for 'freedom'?

jez the blinkers people wear.

Syria has support in Lebanon but that does not give them the right to be there. Syria has said they will be gone by May elections, so it's a moot point if words are kept.

Recent protests have knocked Hariri murder off the news media. Who killed him? Why?

Re: Crunch time in Lebanon: Pro-Syrian protests, Tuesday 8th March

that si the point LI. In a country where syria runs all affairs and terrorists like Hezbollah run around rampant..how hard is it to get 500K people together..bus them in..give them placards..make sure the women are in a separate section etc etc.. all the trappings are there. Doesn’t matter though..syria is cooked..and it is about time. One by one… :rotato:

You mess with the bull..you get the horns.

Did you all notice though that the anti-syrian protestors were much mch better looking than the pro-syrians one? Hmmmm

Hopefully we can have a Gupshup meet in a Beirut cafe after the drifters go back home and the place is clean up back to what it use to be. If you going to pick up another wife this is the place, they've got the lookers.

"I detested Hafez Assad for what he did to Hama.

But Bashir Assad, he is not accountable for his father's deeds. Indeed, Bashir Assad, since taking power, has released Muslim Brotherhood members imprisoned by his father and has been slowly and steadily lifting the boot of repression off the Muslim Brotherhood."

Gosh thats so nice! Real model rule for the middle east. Repression-lite. So, Muslims would be willing to settle for that? A rule passed down from generation to generation, each successive generation just a little less repressive. What frikkin' double standards. If Assads name was Bush or Sharon you guys would be bleeding from the ears screaming about occupation and troops in foreign countries, a lack of freedom and repression. The cynics among you would be pointing out the manipulation of the legislature and a lack of any political challenge, never mind a horrible human rights record. Wasn't there some stink that the US shipped an illegal immigrant back to Syria which was known to use torture? Now you are admiring their big rallies? So Muslims should be willing to settle for about half of the freedoms and liberties that western men get? OK fine.

So long as Syria opposes Israel everything is forgiven eh?

Re: Crunch time in Lebanon: Pro-Syrian protests, Tuesday 8th March

OG, one can say the same about US. As long as Israel is pleased/taken care of everything is peachy..right?

Re: Crunch time in Lebanon: Pro-Syrian protests, Tuesday 8th March

I don't care whether she is pro Syria or not. If all the protestors looked like this they can protest as much as they want.

Re: Crunch time in Lebanon: Pro-Syrian protests, Tuesday 8th March

So the Syrians are'withdrawing' a few km, some pro-syrian geezer resigned then was re-instated. Thousands marched against syria, then 100 000's for syria. Lebanon still aint got no oil and still borders isreal.

I hope someone benefitted from lowered ground rate tax or something, coz they sure as hell got a lot of news coverage for a picnic.
