A statue of Lebanon's assassinated former prime minister Rafik al-Hariri is seen near the site of the suicide truck bombing that killed him in 2005, in Beirut February 10, 2010. Lebanon marks the fifth anniversary of Rafik al-Hariri's assassination on February 14. Slowly but surely, Syria has regained influence in Lebanon, but wields it more diplomatically than in the era before the slaying of Lebanese statesman Rafik al-Hariri five years ago led to a humiliating Syrian troop exit.
