The Situation in Lebanon

So I've been following the goings on in Beirut and trying to make sense of exactly whats going on. Honestly I can't say I know that much about the situation, or Lebanon in general, but these are the news sources that I have found useful:

By far the best coverage (with virtually up-to-the-minute updates) is Naharnet.

The CS Monitor has good coverage as well here and here(maybe because they actually have foreign bureaus). Their coverage is especially useful for understanding how this started.

As you will recall, Lebanon was the site of political unrest this fall over electing the government. Read a brief summary here.
