500,000 rally in support of Syria in the capital Lebanon. Amidst opposition claims of people being bused in from Syria and locals being pressured to participate and blah,blah,blah, -not to say that some criticism regarding this rally may not be true but you can't deny the staggering size of this rally which dwarfed the anti-Syrian ones. "Are all those hundreds of thousands of people puppets?Is all this crowd agents for the Syrians and intelligence agencies" as Hezbullah leader Sheik Nasrallah asked, really to the outside world.

You also can't deny the fact that the majority of Syrians are muslims and supporters of Syrian influence in their country, which many regard as better than that of American or Israeli influence.
