The Grass Is Always Greener On The Other Revolution
February 2, 2011 · Mustapha Hamoui
The nostaligic Lebanese are starting to reminisce..:
“The Egyptian revolution is a replica of the Cedar Revolution; both of them aimed at overthrowing a specific system of government,” said Fadi, who owns a flower shop in Hamra. But for Fadi, the “Egyptian revolution” could be more successful. “They don’t face our problem which is sectarianism. The Cedar Revolution was not able to bring all of us together. “Look,” he said pointing at the TV broadcasting footage from the Egyptian protests, “the people are together united for one cause.”
It’s still early days, Fadi.. All revolutions look unstoppable in their first week.
