Pursuit, I wish the left had been merely missing during the last 20 years of the cold war.

Came across this blog with interesting information out of Lebanon, such as the fact that Walid Jumblatt has sent one of his son to France because he is afraid of assassination attempts . . .

I posted about this on my blog this morning. I think its very interesting that Mr. Jumblatt links these changes and the fall of the Berlin Wall. The left was missing from the last 20 years of the cold war as well.

The best I can do is be there in spirit, but I’m there.

Orange, purple, red and white–the colors of freedom.

Now this is interesting. Did anyone read what Walid Jumblatt was saying? Hint: the Iraqi election made quite an impression on him.
