⭕️?:
Angry protesters in #Beirut are now hanging the effigies of #Hezbollah Chief Nasrallah, President Michel Aoun & Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri.
That speaks volumes.

Oh look! There’s yet another in a series of never ending riot/protest in Lebanon. Must be a Saturday there.

So it looks like Lebanon has decided to start again. Burning down the house. The Riot Police and Army have been very constrained compared to Trumps Goons. It wouldn’t surprise me if they became the citizens of Lebanon Army and Police force. pic.twitter.com/ds9icgRpOR

Earlier, when Riot police started throwing teargas (before it got extremely violent) protestors did not back away, instead started chanting against the president.
