W: Alaa Merhi is just 23, like many young Lebanese at the core of what’s being called the Cedar Revolution...You’re demanding democracy, government accountability, and, for the first time in their lives, saying publicly they want Syria to end its occupation of Lebanon. That first time that you shouted out, you know, Syria out, what did it feel like?
M: The first time, I felt very happy. I felt that I’m saying something that was locked inside. They are saying now, "Hey, hey, Syria go out." So this is beautiful.
W: Why now do the Lebanese feel free to speak out?
M: The catalyst was the assassination one month ago of the popular former Prime Minister. But also, many here credit the United States for challenging Syria and encouraging democracy. God bless George Bush. God bless the USA.
W: You aren’t just demonstrating in the square today. You’ve been living here, camped out for the last 25 days. So what’s the reason for you to do that?
M: The most important thing in life for a human being is the freedom and the democracy. It’s more important than money, than food, than the weather, than the happiness, because happiness won’t come without freedom and without living in democracy.
W: Most of the protesters living here are young, idealistic, willing to go without hot food and showers. You rely now on an awful lot of cologne. What do you do with the cologne?
M: It’s beautiful when you wash your face in the morning, when you wake up, just to put a little bit behind your ears. So...
W: And you smear it on the walls, too.
M: Yes, that’s just to make the perfume around, so the smell will be better.
W: You penned articles and scrawled messages on a bullet-ridden statue, determined their voices and thoughts will be known. The headline says, "No one can intimidate us," it says, "No one can intimidate us any more." Think that’s true?
M: I think we are not going to leave here until we get what we want.
W: Alaa, were you influenced by the recent elections in Iraq? When you saw the election in Iraq and you might think, "Wow, maybe we could do this?"
M: Of course we can do this. Why can’t we do this?
W: In this region, in this country, however, doing democracy is not easy. You and the others insist you’ll continue lighting candles, marching, speaking out, until Syria has gone, and real change has come, don’t you?
M: ...Lebanon is a big jail. And right now, I think people, they are out, holding their hands and saying, "Who wants to open this jail?" We don’t need anymore to stay inside a jail.
