While this doesn't diminish the quality of his posts, it's important to note that he's not blogging on the scene.

Seems that next Monday the industrial, financial and commercial sectors are planning to shut down, conciding with an expected vote of no confidence. Looks to be a significant move - if you've got the money people lining up behind the opposition, that's a sure sign of discontent. http://www.lebanonwire.com/0502/05022309AFP.asp I'll have to see if I can get in touch with an acquaintance who is of Lebanese descent.

Your concern for freedom and democracy around the world is encouraging. As an American in Taiwan for the past 12 years it has been hard to know what's really going on. Before the blogosphere, all I had to rely on was MSM news and analysis. You should sue the other "Liberals" for dimunition of brand. Roger,
