Lebanon: New Threats

Filed under: Lebanon — by Bob Zuber @ 10:11 am

Al Jazeera is providing regular updates on the escalating violence between Hezbollah and government forces: “Fears that the political conflict in Lebanon could escalate into sectarian conflict were heightened when Mohammed Rashid Kabbani, Lebanon’s Sunni grand mufti, spoke against Hezbollah for the fist time.

“Sunni Muslims in Lebanon have had enough,” Kabbani said in a televised address from his office.

The Sunni spiritual leader referred to Hezbollah as “armed gangs of outlaws that have carried out the ugliest attacks against the citizens and their safety.”
