Tripoli Demo Pics
I went to the pro-government demo in Tripoli yesterday (which was a stone-throw from my house). I’ve never seen anything that large and boisterous in this otherwise sleepy city. Here are some pics (Click for larger images).

In Lebanon
The two trips I made to Lebanon this year were scheduled a long time ago. They were both meant to be celebrations of important events in my life (engagement, wedding). But somehow, they both coincided with tragic events in my country.

Tripoli Is Boiling
Various eyewitnesses told me that tens of thousands of protesters have filled the parking lot of the Tripoli International Fair (an area of around 20,000 square meters) in a show of support for the government. The witnesses described a huge forest of Lebanese flags and loud displays of fireworks and festive gun shots.
