"And now, of course, the most romantic flowering of the spirit America went into the region to foster: the Cedar Revolution in Lebanon, in which unarmed civilians, Christian and Muslim alike, brought down the puppet government installed by Syria. There is even the beginning of a breeze in Damascus. More than 140 Syrian intellectuals have signed a public statement defying their government by opposing its occupation of Lebanon." time.com =================== And just a year later Israel is bombing it to smithereens because it did not like the outcome of 'democracy.' Ironically now some are saying that BECAUSE Syria was chased out there was no one to check Hezbollah. Who is the enemy of democracy? If you don't believe in democracy then just admit it. Just admit that you want the outcome that you want even if it means installing a thuggish dictatorship.
