Lebanese protests
« on: August 31, 2015, 01:24:29 AM »
You can google Lebanon "you stink" protests for more context. Basically, complaints about the gov not picking up trash escalated, and the result was some pretty solid signage. I remember when Egyptian protests were this playful.

I don't know. I honestly don't know much about Lebanon's internal dynamics. Some protestors briefly stormed a ministry today, but I think it was resolved kinda peacefully. In Egypt, the military (and to a lesser extent the police) are the only functional entity to a large degree. That's not the case in Lebanon, where all the gov entities are pretty mumped up and broken.
