#2 Ah, Reuters. We can know what scares them the most by reading what Reuters sees fit to spin.

#3 What's even funnier is that Yahya Maqhour and that "young Shiite supporter" at the end are all 100% correct. I support the administration's policy, which is not only peace in the Middle East but on our terms. We are pushing for a Syrian withdrawal, not only to free the Lebanese people from Syrian hegemony (is that even the right word, considering the context?) but to put a stop to Hizbullah. Didn't one of its leaders just whine in the World Net Daily that official EU sanctions on Hizbullah would crush it?

Fred, you perfectly expressed my thoughts with that first "ed:" line. :-)

#4 "The Shiites fear that if Syria is pushed out of Lebanon, a recurrance of a Western-backed "Shiite on a Shingle" policy will re-instituted in its place. Asked what would constitute a " Shiite on a Shingle" policy, a spokesthug replied it wouild be an answer to the age old question of "what do you get when you nail a Hizbollah terrorist to the roof?" "
