Two killed, eight wounded in clashes between Sunnis, Hezbollah

BEIRUT, Lebanon - Shiite Hezbollah supporters and the Lebanese government’s Sunni backers clashed with machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades Thursday in battles that spread through Beirut’s streets soon after Hezbollah’s leader vowed to fight any attempt to disarm his men.

Lebanese security officials said two people were killed and eight wounded in the sectarian clashes.

The violence first erupted in Muslim West Beirut, where masked gunmen on street corners opened fire along Corniche Mazraa, a major thoroughfare that has become a demarcation line between the two sides.

Iran's status in the middle east has grown exponentially since our invasion of Iraq. The ripple effects of our fuck-up will be felt for decades.
