Lebanon (is yet again) a focal point in the news right now.

The pro-Syrian (puppet) government suddenly resigned today, much to the jubulation of the anti-Syrian protesters.

It’s important to note that the anti-Syria protesters are actually a mixture of Muslims, Christians and Druze–Lebanon’s three major ethnic groups.

While this is a very good development, however, we must wait and see if Syria is going to attempt to either institute Military control of the country or installing another puppet leadership.

Yes, I know it sounds pessimistic, but its worth keeping an eye on. Perhaps Assad thinks that by having his puppet government resign, he’s currying favor in the eyes of the world (in an effort to get pressure lifted off his regime)?
