Cedar_revolution_20050228.jpg


Cedar Revolution has become the Western media's most commonly used name for the chain of demonstrations and popular civic action in Lebanon (mainly Beirut) triggered by the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri on February 14, 2005.

The primary goal of the original activists was the withdrawal of Syrian troops from Lebanon and an end to what the demonstrators considered undue influence by Syria on Lebanese politics. During the period of the first wave of demonstrations, Syria had been maintaining a force of roughly 14,000 soldiers and intelligence agents in Lebanon. Following the demonstrations, the Syrian troops withdrew from Lebanon by April 30. The Pro-Syrian government was also disbanded, accomplishing the main goal of the revolution. (For background information on Syria's involvement in Lebanese politics, see the articles History of Lebanon, Lebanese Civil War, and Syrian presence in Lebanon)

The opposition has taken, as its symbol, the white and red scarf, and the pro-Hariri blue ribbon. Popular mottos of the movement were Horryeh, Syedeh, Este'lel (Freedom, Sovereignty, Independence), and Ha'i'a, Horryeh, Wehdeh watanieh (Truth, Freedom, National unity).

Fighting POV

As, in my opinion, the most important policy in Wikipedia, NPOV sadly reflects a great weakness regarding a lot of subjects and controversial issues.
Regarding myself, as a representer of a Lebanese point of view, and as a defenser for NPOV, I'll therefore, try my best to include all point of views as cited in the NPOV policy.

Concerning my area of knowledge, I would like to highlight on some subjects that have been the field of POV cases:1982 Lebanon War, Operation Litani, Qana massacre, Cedar Revolution, Lebanese general election, 2005.

Possibly up to one million Lebanese, or one-fourth of the country's population, stream into the newly rebuilt downtown Beirut on March 14, 2005 to demonstrate Lebanese unity and protest against the Syrian occupation. </center >
