Well, theres something you don't see every day...

cross_and_koran.jpg


I think this is the most touching thing I've read since the start of the whole 'Cedar revolution':

Quote:

"All the people want freedom, Muslims, Christians, Druze, everyone. People here are holding the cross and the Koran,"

After all the carbon black soot that was left on our souls after 9/11, doesnt that just make you want to sit down and cry for the sheer joy of it?


Well, Heres some more "things you dont see every day"

Headline(Times of India):

Oppostion in Syria looks for spillover effect.

Opposition? In Syria? Whodathunkit.....

Quote: "A Syrian withdrawal is inevitable. History is on the move and nobody can halt its progress," said Syrian filmmaker Omar Amiralay. He said Lebanon was playing the role of 'engine for change' in the region."

Then theres more signs of evil "Bush-Hitler" being "Unilateral" again:

US and France demand Syria leave Lebanon

Demand? France and US? "...cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria..."

Then John Kerry finally gets some concensus from the "World Community" with this:

China Welcomes Syrias decision to pull its troops out of Lebanon.

You know, when the Chinese, French and US are all saying "shows over Bashir". The show is over.

I guess we are living in interesting times. If I had read your article before doing my blog entry, I would have worked some of this in. But even the curse seems to be turned on it's end, as across the world people are marching towards freedom.

"but if we are right and we can stop this thing, Lenny, you will have saved the lives of millions of registered voters."

Democratic revolutions in the mid-east would have seemed as likely as Bill Murray saving the world from an interdimensional being - in the form of a giant sta-puft marshmallow man....Let alone the US and France agreeing on anything.
