Kafa revolution vs Cedar revolution
There's a reason why I have yet to use the Cedar Revolution in any of my postings.
Yes, I am proud of the Cedros Libanos. I have planted at least 10, one of which resides in my garden. It is, by far, the most magnificent tree on this planet. With its wide arms, flat top, and 5000 years of history. Its aura is so powerful, it is known to have cured people of their physical and mental illnesses.
BUT, the Cedar does not represent this revolution. The Cedar may have represented the steadfastness of the Lebanese through the many civil wars. Through the many civilizations, colonial powers, and barbarians. Through the blood, the violence, the atrocities.
BUT, THIS revolution is NOT about steadfastness. It's about realizing that ENOUGH is ENOUGH. It's when the Lebanese got up from their steadfastness, and DID something, anything, to free themselves from the chains they've made for themselves.
Kafa is Enough in Arabic. This is the Had-It Revolution. The Enough Revolution. The Fed-Up Revolution. The Get-Out Revolution. This is NOT the "we'll remain steadfast through your foreign manipulation and hegemony" Revolution. We've had ENOUGH STEADFASTNESS.
The Kafa Revolution it is.
Does any of this make sense?

between 800,000 and 2 million demonstrators.
Lebanese population = 3.5 million to 4 million
percentage on the streets, between 25% and 60% of the entire population took part in the anti-Syrian demonstration on Mar 14 2005.
This is by far the largest demonstration that has ever taken place in the world, and easily the largest by percentage of population.
Am I mistaken? I think not.
Peace will prevail. We've had enough bloodshed.
This is the Kafa Revolution.
