That’s what Ya Libnan’s coverage of Hezbollah’s bloody takeover of Beirut must feel like to the brave democrats running the site. We all remember how our imaginations were captured by the sight of democracy in action in that part of the world during the Cedar Revolution. Now please spare a thought for them, these hip, worldly, freedom activists, as the The Jihad closes its fist around them.
Our Middle Eastern go-to guy Michael Totten is apparently not on the ground there, but he’s got a good crew working hot sources. Click, scroll, click, and linger.

Maybe we can send Jimmy Carter to talk to the peace loving, misunderstood jihadists? They like him because he stands up to the Jooooooooos!

23:01 Two members of the Progressive socialist Party ( PSP) that is headed by MP Walid Jumblatt were killed in the Aley clashes
Sounds like Jimmah may want to chill a bit.

Don’t worry, folks. Obama has issued a strongly worded statement.
Things should calm down any moment now.

The Paris of the Middle East they used to call it. It still kinda fits I guess.

Shouldn’t the “Peace Movement” be organizing some protest marches against Hezbollah?
*chirp*

Sanity Inspector,
Crazy thing about Hezzie’s recent gains in Lebanon is…the TIMING!
Wasn’t it just a month or two ago that America agreed to send another couple-a hundred mill to the terrorists in Palestine? And now this.
It’s soooo Imam-ish, too: getting the Dhimmis to pay for an attack on their own ally’s capitol city.
And, since great minds like Andy Sullivan’s can question ‘the timing,’ then why can’t I.
Cheers!

I’d say you’re quite a ways off track, indeed.
