Let it be said that on 2008 Mother’s Day we in the coalition of M14 are defending/dying to protect our Mother-Land against Iranian/Syrian Tyranny.
I wish I am in Lebanon to join you against the Iranian-Syrian thugs! But the war should be a guerrilla war. Sniping once and move on in addition to grendas!
What’s stopping you ghassan?
Looks like the American puppet is taking advantage of Hezbollah’s magnanimous gesture. Time to teach him a lesson.
Not Tripoli, but the Druze Village of Choueifat in Lebanon (warning: graphic images!):

choueifat is not a druze village. it is a mixed village. also, the perpetrators were druze against druse in choueifat. very little sha7m.
Couldn’t you have used political terms instead of sectarian.
CHOUEIFAT, very little sha7m.

And it is currently Lebanese, despite Hezbollah attempts to take it over. In May, 2007 there was fighting between the Lebanese Internal Security Forces and Fatah al-Islam, a jihadist militia focused on the Nahr el-Bared Palestinian refugee camp just outside the town. This resulted in the deaths of 170 soldiers, 290 militants, and nearly 50 civilians, along with the destruction of the refugee camp. And in 2008, Tripoli was the epicenter for a fierce battle between Sunnis loyal to the current government and Alawites (a Shia sect) loyal to Hezbollah. The Lebanese Army intervened a few days later to put an end to the fighting, but tensions picked up again in July and over 30 people died in the combined clashes.
