The demonstrators in Beirut moved rubble from the southern suburbs to Beirut streets to block the roads. This has a double meaning: they wanted to remind people that the government has still not cleaned up the rubble from the area. And did you see Walid Jumblat's press conference today? My favorite part was when the leader of the "Democratic" March 14th Movement paid tribute to the Saudi king calling him a great man and: "A Man, the Man." (Ar-Rajulu-r-Rajul*).
PS A reader suggested that I should translate as Manly Man.
