This news from Lebanon. An anti-Syrian alliance led by the son of assassinated former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri appears to have swept the final round of Lebanon’s legislative elections, securing a majority in the new parliament. Saad Hariri’s coalition appeared to have won at least 65 of parliament’s 128 seats. With a majority, Hariri’s alliance would be expected to try to remove current Lebanese president, Emile Lahoud. He is viewed as pro-Syrian.
