How can anyone convince me that these Lebanese decided to wake up one day, after long years of suffering, ok let's give them that, and to hold a gun, run out, and shoot their lifelong neightbor.
Someone insists on embarrassing Tripolitans. The people of the city, should stand together and denounce these killings.
Anyone interested in these killings, Get the F* out of Lebanon, and go shoot whoever you want in Syria. After all their claim is a pro-anti Syrian sympathizers; go and never come back!
