In this article, Fawaz Traboulsi identifies strong similarities between fundamentalist Islamic movements (here Bin Laden's) and Bushism: they are both strong believers in neo-liberal economics. Is that why the Hizbullah-led Lebanese opposition has been unable to come up with a decent economic program as an alternative to the government's ultra-liberalism? A program to promote social equity?
By the way I strongly recommend Traboulsi's new book: A History of Modern Lebanon.
