Day of Revolution in Lebanon?

Tomorrow should be, at the very least, rather interesting:

Quote:

BEIRUT: Lebanon's Syrian-backed government banned protests planned for Monday (local time) but a main opposition figure vowed the Lebanese would take to the streets to demand who killed former prime minister Rafik al-Hariri.

Interior minister Suleiman Franjieh called on security forces in a statement on Sunday "to take all necessary steps to preserve security and order and prevent demonstrations and gatherings on Monday".

Opposition groups have called a protest at the central Martyrs Square by Hariri's grave and a one-day strike to coincide with a parliamentary debate on the killing that for many recalled Lebanon's bitter 1975-90 civil war.

Government and Syrian loyalists, meanwhile, planned to descend on central Beirut to protest against US deputy secretary of state David Satterfield's visit to Lebanon as part of growing international pressure.

Clashes between the two sides were feared.

An army statement asked the Lebanese people not to gather, particularly in the streets around parliament. Scores of security forces blocked those streets all day Sunday ahead of what is widely expected to be a fiery debate.

But opposition figure Walid Jumblatt promised there would be defiance on Monday, two weeks to the day after the killing that shocked Lebanon.

[...]

Jumblatt goes on to call Lebanon's Syrian-controlled government a "tyrannical, fascist regime."
