LEBANON-UNREST-POLITICS-GEMAYEL-POSTER
A giant poster of assassinated Lebanese Industry Minister Pierre Gemayel is erceted in Beirut's downtown 22 November 2006. In the background a huge poster of anti-Syrian MP and journalist Gebran Tueini, who was killed in a car bomb in December 2005, is seen hanging in the facade of the building of his An-Nahar newspaper. Lebanon was on a knife-edge as it began three days of mourning for an anti-Syrian minister gunned down in an attack that stoked fears the country may be again torn apart by civil strife. Bells tolled as the body of Gemayel, scion of one of Lebanon's most prominent Christian families, was taken to his home village in the mountains east of Beirut surrounded by a massive crowd of mourners. Arabic writing under Gemayel's poster reads: "Sacrificed for Lebanon." AFP PHOTO/MARWAN NAAMANI
