"Marius Deeb, an Oxford-educated authority on Middle Eastern politics and history,
in a sequel to his authoritative Syria's Terrorist War on Lebanon and the Peace Process,
shows how the Syria, Iran, and Hezbollah axis has tried, through assassination, terrorism
and force, to undermine Lebanon's Cedar Revolution that triumphed in March 2005. The
Cedar Revolution began in September 2000 as a protest movement led by Patriarch Sfair,
the head of the Maronite Catholic Church, and culminated on March 14, 2005, when 1.5
million demonstrated peacefully in Beirut calling for the withdrawal of Syrian troops
from Lebanon and for a free, democratic, and pluralistic polity. No wonder that the
Syria, Iran and Hezbollah axis has regarded the Cedar Revolution as its implacable
enemy, for the Cedar Revolution is the antithesis of the Islamic revolution in Iran
that demonized America and opened the floodgates of terrorism. In contrast, the Cedar
Revolution is a nonviolent, democratic, and pro-Western revolution and thus an antidote
to militant Islam and terrorism."--Publisher's description
