I'm afraid this is what happens when a poor country goes through the sort of inflation we've gone through. I expect the crime rate to keep increasing. People are going to put food on the table, one way or another

Pity the people who can only unite by having a common enemy or the same person to bully.

you should amend your statement to say compliments of Syria/Hizb Iran and Iran, because frankly the robbery occurred in a Shia area and the guys fled to an area dominated by Amal and HI.
Maybe if the government concentrated on law and order by preventing these robberies (more officers, cameras on streets, etc), they may get a head start--but reacting is never good.
