February 14th: Day of Love

As people prepare to mark the anniversary of Hariri's death and indeed all the other martyrs including those who fell so horribly today, I hope they remember that it is Valentines' Day. I hope they go to downtown to celebrate their love to Lebanon and their love to their countrymen. I hope this day is not driven by revenge or sectarian feelings or show of force or flexing of muscles.

Give us the ability to dream again of a Lebanon that our parents wanted to see and were faced with civil war instead! Tomorrow is a day of love, it is not a day for sunnis or Saad Hariri per se as the pathetic few are trying to portray.

Let us show the world that we are a civilized people and a few thugs that are terrorizing us, killing our people, forcing us to immigrate, and draining us of money are just losing and soon will be put behind bars and the true Lebanese will remain resilient forever.
