I was quite impressed today by the amazing way that the Lebanese people have rallied behind a cause and had one of the most beautiful aspects of life, a non-violent revolution. I'm amazed at the level of revolutionary activity that I have been able to witness, not just in my lifetime, but in the past few months. With both the Ukraine and Lebanon having peaceful demonstrations becoming full-fledge revolutions without an ounce of bloodshed(if you don't count the murder that started this entire Lebanese movement), this is a great time to be both a pacifist and a revolutionary. So, to the people of Lebanon, I say Bravo and to the people of the Ukraine, I also say Bravo. Now, to the Americans who couldn't even muster the strength to vote out the man that torments us, I say we owe the world better.
