Daily Star Propaganda: Hariri propaganda

Look at this lousy article in the Daily Start.  Sending a false image about the views of Egyptians in Lebanon, many of whom have been demonstrating daily outside of the Egyptian embassy in Beirut.  Now Daily Star is Hariri-owned, and the Hariri family, the Lebanese Forces, and the Phalanges Party are all close allies of the Mubarak regime, so I understand that they would be upset. (thanks "Ibn Rushd")

PS I attack the policies of the Daily Star and its Hariri owner.  But I have known and communicated with many fine reporters and editors at the paper.  Many of them don't share the editorial policies of the paper and try hard to change things.  So let it be noted that there are good people in the Daily Star.
