Volunteers distribute placards in Martyrs' Square before the funeral for the country's intelligence chief, Brig. Gen. Wissam al-Hassan in Beirut, Lebanon, Sunday, Oct. 21, 2012. Lebanese forces set up road blocks and cordoned off Beirut's central square Sunday, boosting security in the capital ahead of a public funeral for Al-Hassan, a powerful opponent of Syria. The placards depict Al- Hassan, who was assassinated Friday in a car bomb attack, and Rafik Hariri, former Prime Minister of Lebanon, who was assassinated in 2005 in a car bombing.
