1 killed , 6 injured in Tripoli, north Lebanon

Share:

One person was killed on Saturday by an explosive device he was handling in the northern Lebanese port city of Tripoli and six others were wounded, a security source told AFP.

The dead man, an Islamist, died when the home-made bomb detonated prematurely, the source said adding that two other people were wounded in the blast in the west Tripoli district of Baqar.

Following the incident, gun battles erupted between Baqar, a Sunni Muslim neighborhood, and Jabal Mohsen, an Alawite district, wounding four Sunni Muslim residents.

Violence has regularly broken out in Tripoli, a majority Sunni city, between Sunni residents and the minority Alawites — an offshoot of Shiite Islam — of Jabal Mohsen.

The clashes have become more frequent and deadly since the beginning of the Syrian uprising. Over 100,000 have been killed in Syria since the uprising erupted in March 2011

    Like it when they juggle their bombs the wrong way … the reactions are predictable … everyone reaches for a gun when a car backfires, so when a bomb goes off it’s time to shoot at Allah again.

      We heard reports of an explosion in front of a Church in Damascus day before yesterday and the Syrian government immediately called it a ‘suicide bombing’. But others said the blast was caused by a mortar.

      A while later Syrian officials even released the name of the alleged ‘suicide bomber’: Hossam Shukri Sarhan. However later people found out this alleged bomber Hossam was actually a Catholic Christian! So what is your opinion about this ?

        The regime is just trying to gain support from its dissolving country. Just like how everyone who doesnt support them is a terrorist. Or how when they use chemical weapons and blame the rebels.

          I think both sides are guilty of making up or twisting the truth. For example, Assad has killed over 100,000 Syrians or there are no Hezbos or Iranians fighting in Syria.

          All evidence points to the terrorist using Chemical weapons. It was even highlighted by a UN investigator that the evidence produced by the US, UK and France in relation to the Syrian government using Chemical weapon could not be substantiated. However evidence was also produced (and no not by the Syrian government) that in fact chemical weapon were used by the terrorist. Ask yourself, why when Russia asked on more than one occasion for an immediate full investigation, the majority of the UN who have made it very clear that they oppose the Syrian government said no. I mean for God sake, even Syria asked for an investigation on more than one occasion.

          And really,everyone who doesn’t support them is a terrorist. Where did you spin that one from. Keep it real, REAL.

            Actually the UN was conducting an investigation but the regime only allowed a small portion of the country to be investigated so they couldnt come up with evidence. I read it on this site back when the news was fresh. I never heard of the thing your talking about but if you give me a link Id be happy to read it.

            Real, I saw it on press TV a couple of months ago. I actually seen the Investigator saying that there was not enough evidence produced by the 3 amigos, (US, UK and France) that could confirm that the Syrian government in actual fact did use WMD. I also read on RT that there was evidence produced by Russian and German investigators that in deed the terrorist had in their possession Chemical weapons. To be honest with you, who knows who the F*@k is telling the truth. 🙂

            Thats the thing. Nobody knows whos telling the truth and its too hard to gather evidence. However I think chemical weapons have been used, and most likely by the regime because Israel claims to be watching the chemical stocks so it doesnt get in the hands of the ‘terrorists’, as you would say in your language (although you can argue that Israel supports the ‘terrorists’, which I highly doubt.)

            What you need to do is stop and really have a look at who will gain from the war not only in Syria, but the previous wars in Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan. (And please real, don’t tell me it had to do with democracy) Once you answer that question, then you will really know who is most definitely helping the terrorist.

            I knew you would say this, and your wrong. The Syrian Israeli border has been the calm since the 70s. Why would Israel risk putting some hardline salafists ( such as al-Nusra, and btw now you can use the word terrorist) into power to attack them. And you can argue it is to weaken Iran but it would actually do the opposite. Iran is spread out too far in the middle east and is getting hated from the majority of arabs. Besides, instead of sending money to Syria, it would be better for Iran to abandon its project in the Levant and use the money to help its failing economy. So, can you please explain how Israel would benefit?

      A sensational Youtube video, purportedly showing the execution of 3 Franciscan friars by Islamic extremists in Syria, is “mixed up,” Church officials have announced.

      Islamic warriors allied with the Syrian rebel movement posted the video, claiming that they were executing the Franciscans at Al Ghassaniyah monastery, where a priest, Father Francois Mourad, had been killed earlier this week. But Franciscan officials reported that the friars had left that monastery, taking the body of Father Mourad with them, and were safe at another location.

      “They are all alive,” said Father Pierbattista Pizzabella, the head of the Franciscan Custody in the Holy Land. He reported that no Franciscan remain in the region from which the video was reported posted. Father Pizzabella asked for prayers for peace in Syria, and for the unidentified men who were executed on the video.
