Freedom is, like, so hott.

A few months ago, during the Ukranian presidential election hubub, my old roomate and I noticed that coverage of pro-Yushenko demonstrations featured a perponderance of hot young chicks. While we agreed that hot chicks and democracy are pretty awesome, we didn't really think much of the implications of such imagery.

However, with Beruit apparently being overrun with anti-Syrian
babes (if you are to believe the MSM who's coverage has resembled an episode of "Beirut's Next Top Model"), the use of hot chicks as propaganda tools is impossible to ignore.

I am, however, not surprised.
