Lebanese Political Situation
One of my favorite lebanese bloggers, Raja, is back online after a short hiatus. He is to lebanon’s political scene what jade is to the mac tech scene. One recent article in particular though grabbed my attention. He talks about how all the political parties are lords over the serfs, but in reality the “lords” are just doing external powers’ biddings. I love this imagery, and I think that it is appropriate for the US as well. Just take away “foreign powers” and replace it with “corporate interests”. Or perhaps “lobbyists”.
