    Hariri is still fondly remembered. This, in a region where assasinations have become the norm, at least for the past few decades, with the war in Iraq emboldening Iran to spread its influence. Image Credit: Reuters

    Hariri casts his vote at a polling station in Beirut on September 3, 2000. Fifteen years after his death, the modern state he had started building is in shambles, almost isolated from the international arena. Image Credit: Reuters

    A bust of Hariri in Beirut. 'He was bigger than Lebanon', is a refrain one hears from many of his supporters and loved ones. He was seen as 'the father of the poor'. Image Credit: Reuters

    The criminal attack on Hariri has become a point of reference in modern Lebanese history. When people talk about recent history, there is a Hariri era, and a post-assassination era. Image Credit: Reuters

    Fifteen years on, the impact of Hariri’s brutal killing is still hurting the country, and torpedoing its growth and development. Lebanon has been gripped by anti-corruption and anti-government protests since October 17 that show no signs of abating. Image Credit: Reuters
