BEIRUT — Lebanon's pro-Western coalition declared victory early Monday, as local television stations reported the faction had successfully fended off a serious challenge by the Shiite militant group Hezbollah and its allies to grab the majority in parliament.
Official results for Sunday's election were not expected until later Monday, but the winners were already celebrating by shooting in the air, setting off fireworks and driving around in honking motorcades

This is good..a good sign. However, I fear that the extremists will just resort to violance. Hezbollah is an out of control faction. It was them that attacked Israel, not the Lebanese government. I hope this does not come to pass but I have no doubt, after loosing in a legitemate process they will resort to illegitemate operations
