The old Soviet Republic of Georgia had it's "Rose Revolution" Ukraine's revolution was orange. Iraqis voted with purple fingers. Now, the Lebanese and their Cedar Revolution are next in that line of dominoes.
Even a former foe, the rogue state Libya, saw the crest of this wave last year and renounced their program to produce weapons of mass destruction.
Of course the path won't be easy, nor trouble free. Yet the peoples of Iran who seek to throw off their oppressive theocracy (this being a REAL theocracy, not the hysterical ravings of tie-dyed hippe freak tree worshipping neo socialists in this country who are just out to impose THEIR views on the rest of us). With enough support and encouragment, we may see Iran rejoin the company of peaceful nations and renounce state sponsored terrorism.
Even FRANCE, that's right: FRANCE has rejected the idea of ever oppressive world socialism and voted overwhelmingly against the European Constitution which would have enshrined socialism deeper into the European fabric while enslaving the people.
Freedom is on the move and it's all happening because America is leading the way. Remember that as you ponder the Memorial Day just passed.
The Washington Times: AP: "BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) -- The son of assassinated former premier Rafik Hariri swept Beirut legislative elections, officials said Monday, in a solid rejection of Syrian influence that marked a turning point in Lebanese politics.
Saad Hariri, a 35-year-old political novice who took over his father's mantle only in April, headed a ticket that won all 19 parliament seats up for grabs in the capital Sunday in the first election since Syria ended its nearly three-decade military domination of Lebanon in April.
Political pundits expect Hariri's Future Movement to win the biggest bloc in the next parliament as elections continue over the next three weeks, a stature that could propel him to the premiership. Hariri said Monday he would decide whether to seek the job after the elections."
