Quote: Pierre Gemayel, a leading anti-Syrian Lebanese minister and Maronite Christian leader, has been killed in the capital, Beirut.
Mr Gemayel, 34, was shot in his car in a Christian suburb and rushed to hospital, where he died.
His death comes amid a political crisis in Lebanon, following the resignation of six pro-Syrian cabinet members.

Quote: Demonstrations are continuing for a second day in Beirut to try to force the Lebanese government to resign.
Hundreds of protesters, including activists from Hezbollah and its pro-Syrian allies, are camped outside Prime Minister Fouad Siniora's offices.
Mr Siniora, who is there with his ministers, is refusing to step down.

Quote:
Hundreds of thousands of Muslims and Christians waving Lebanese flags poured into central Beirut yesterday as opposition leaders gave impassioned speeches calling for the resignation of the cabinet and the formation of a new, more inclusive government.
A tent city was set up for the thousands who vowed to stay outside the government offices where the prime minister, Fouad Siniora, and most of his ministers were holed up behind barbed wire and barriers until the cabinet stepped down.

| I can't believe this happening again. This is so very screwed up especially with Israel possibly re-entering. May God have mercy on the innocent. |
