And So It Begins...

Lebanon is lost...

Lebanon: Jumblatt Says He Sides With Syria, Hezbollah
January 21, 2011
Progressive Socialist Party of Lebanon leader Walid Jumblatt said Jan. 21 that his party will stay firmly with Syria and the resistance, referring to Hezbollah. Speaking at a press conference, he said his meeting with Syrian President Bashar al Assad was excellent and that the two agreed to implement the Saudi-Syrian initiative to end the political crisis. Jumblatt said the initiative goes against cooperating with the Special Tribunal for Lebanon and that the West does not like the initiative because it is a compromise. He also said resorting to actions in the streets would increase tension and instability.


Not a few years ago Jumblatt was hailing the Bush-inspired Cedar Revolution as the emancipation of Lebanon from Syria. Guess Syrbollah gave him an offer he couldn't refuse.

It's coming folks...chaos on a major scale. The exemplar of outreach and understanding, of peace and coexistence, has somehow failed to bring us together into the Global Land of Milk and Honey.

UPDATE: Michael Totten agrees.
