What kind of a "Cedar Revolution" is this?

Well now. After a week of ridiculous statements about Lebanon and the semi-fake "Cedar Revolution" we now have this from AP:


By TANALEE SMITH, Associated Press Writer

BEIRUT, Lebanon - Nearly 500,000 pro-Syrian protesters waved flags and chanted anti-American slogans in a central Beirut square Tuesday, answering a nationwide call by the militant Shiite Muslim Hezbollah group for a demonstration to counter weeks of massive rallies demanding Syrian forces leave Lebanon.

Organizers handed out Lebanese flags and directed the men and women to separate sections of Riad Solh Square. Loudspeakers blared militant songs urging resistance to foreign interference. Demonstrators held up pictures of Syrian President Bashar Assad and signs saying, "Syria & Lebanon brothers forever."

Other placards read: "America is the source of terrorism"; "All our disasters are from America"; "No to American-Zionist intervention; Yes to Lebanese-Syrian brotherhood."

It will be fun to see how they spin this.

Too bad Reagan's dead. Bush might want to talk to him about what happens when you start messing around in Lebanon's civil strife. Most of the mainstream news idiots are neglecting to inform the American people that the US and Israel agreed to and encouraged the insertion of Syrian troops into Lebanon. Of course we also have not been told how helpful Syria was in passing on intelligence after 9/11. Clearly, though, the United States is a client state of Israel and our troops are nothing but mercenaries for the establishment of Greater Israel.

See this, this, this, and this.
