Final Showdown?

October 18, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

I wish I had a penny for every time pundits predicted a final showdown in Lebanon:

With Ramadan and the Ahmadinejad state visit out of the way, many Lebanese believe that the path is now clear for a final showdown, perhaps at Wednesday’s cabinet meeting, between the majority March 14 and the opposition March 8 blocs.

My bet: Things will be postponed and everyone will ask for calm.
