Scenes from the Opposition campground in Downtown Beirut, Lebanon.
The Opposition has been asking for a third of the Government seats.
Camped out in the heart of Beirut for 18 days now...

A youth casting his sleeping bag wide, onto cold hard asphalt, to claim a patch of opposition to the government [first week of December]. Today, this same parking lot is overwhelmed with a sea of tents, all equipped with electricity.



These young men became agitated when they noticed me filming from the bridge. At the time, two weeks ago, the tension between campers and non-campers led to many fights. Today, there's a general acceptance and respect of one another.
