Cedar Revolution continues: Anti-Syrian Coalition wins Lebanese elections...

Lebanese political parties who have joined forces to oppose its nation's pro-Syrian elements won a solid victory that will lead to their control of the next Lebanese Parliament:

Opponents of Syrian domination claimed a stunning majority victory in the final round of Lebanon's parliamentary elections on Sunday night in a rebellion touched off by the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri four months ago.

An anti-Syrian alliance that tried to bridge religious lines and was led by Mr. Hariri's son, 35-year-old Saad Hariri, a Sunni Muslim, won at least 21 of 28 contested seats in northern Lebanon, the last polling area in the elections that have been staggered over the past four weekends. That gave the alliance a majority in the next 128-seat Parliament.

Now can we please get some more pictures of Lebanese protester babes celebrating?
