Remember George's Pride in Lebanon and the Cedar Revolution?
Has anyone put up quotes from the time? Did this administration ever say anything, to the effect, that Syria's interference in Lebanon was "bad" for Lebanon? What is being said about Israel's interference? Someone on the board (there are so many talented and clever people here) should collect those quotes and put them up. Then the question needs to be asked, "If we are so concerned about Lebanon and the fledgling Democracy there, why are we sitting idly by while the country is being bombed back to the stone age? I Halliburton going to fix it? I hope they do a better job than they are doing in Iraq. Just a thought and a request. If it has already been done, please give me a link. I think it would be powerful.

"I am honored that two influential and important members of the United States Congress have joined us. First, Senator Joe Lieberman, a strong defender of freedom. Thank you for coming, Senator...

And any who doubt the appeal of freedom in the Middle East can look to Lebanon."

2. Thanks for that reference. Things have changed, I guess.
This is one thing Spurious George said, "The Lebanese people have the right to determine their future free from domination by a foreign power." I guess that means something other than having their infrastructure blown to bits by a foreign power. The devil IS always in the details, heh George?
