Rival Lebanese leaders signed a deal on Wednesday to end 18 months of political conflict that had pushed their country to the brink of a new civil war. The tents were erected in December 2006 as part of the opposition's campaign against the Western-backed government of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora. [Agencies]
