could lebanon really be headed for another civil war ... things certainly seem that way ... some might even argue that lebanon is already in a state of civil war ... but maybe war is too strong a word ... you could call it a civil scuffle ... i think the term that the media prefers is strife ... but didn't things in gaza start out as a scuffle ...
in a few days it will be february 14th ... the day that marks the third anniversary of hariri's assassination ... i remember the day that it happened ... i was still living in beirut at the time ... i attended the march 14 rally a month later ... i even had one of those red independence 05 posters hanging on my wall ... a friend just gave it to me one day ... but i only attended the rally in 2005 ... i had become disenchanted with the whole thing by 2006 ... and by 2007 i was no longer living in lebanon ...
i think now the question is no longer if a civil war is going to break out ... but rather when ...
