Drain tomatoes and reserve liquid.  Chop tomatoes coarsely and set
aside.  Bring 1 cup reserved liquid to boil over medium heat.  Remove
pan from heat and stir in bulgar.  Heat oil in heavy, deep skillet
over medium low heat.  Add onion and cool until translucent, about 10
minutes, stirring frequently.  Add tomatoes, celery, carrots, lemon
juice and spices, and cook until vegetables are almost tender, about
15 minutes, stirring frequently.  Add bell peppers and cook until
tender, about 10 minutes.  Mix in bulgar, kidney beans, garbanzo
beans and 2 cups tomato juice.  Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes,
stirring occasionally (add remaining tomato liquid if necessary).
