Watch your back, Lebanon

Dear Diary,

On October 26, I had an interview with the Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation. It was okay, but it's always hard to give people news about possible intended assassination attempts on them -- which is what I had to do.

I feel like I did the right thing though, you know? I mean, I would definitely want to know if one of my friends knew that there are people who would like to destabilize the government of Prime Minister Siniora. Nobody likes surprise intimidation or assassination.

I said I didn't want to blame anyone in particular (Syria), but I think I made my info clear: the evidence is there that foreign influences have -- ever since the assassination of the former prime minister Rafiq Hariri -- have totally tried to use assassination and intimidation against the Lebanese people.

I'm just saying, the international community believes there should be no foreign intimidation of the Lebanese people, and like, the United States is absolutely dedicated to trying to solve the problems of the Middle East. Lebanon really has a chance at a true democratic future where all Lebanese can be represented, and it would so not cool if that chance were thwarted.

PS- I also gave mad props to Resolution 1701. That's going to make it so for sure that stuff like the war in Lebanon this summer won't happen again.
