Beirut attacks: Suicide bombers Kill Dozens In Shia Suburb
BBC News ^ | 11/12/2015 | BBC News

At least 37 people have been killed and 181 wounded in two suicide bomb attacks in a residential area of the Lebanese capital, Beirut, officials say.

The bombers blew themselves up in a busy street in the southern suburb of Burj al-Barajneh, a stronghold of the Shia Islamist Hezbollah movement.

The Sunni jihadist group Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility, but there has been no independent confirmation.

It is the deadliest bombing in Beirut since the civil war ended 25 years ago.

Prime Minister Tammam Salam condemned the attacks as "unjustifiable" and called on Lebanon's rival factions to unite against "plans to create strife". 'Innocents targeted'

Two bombers blew themselves up a short distance from each other in a street in Burj al-Barajneh at around 18:00 local time (16:00 GMT).

Hezbollah, which pioneered homocide bombings, finally tasted karma.

This is richly deserved payback for its massacre of 300 American Marines a generation ago.

Payback is a b*tch. Eat it in spades, Hezbollah!

I have heard it was the Hindu Tamil Tigers from Sri Lanka that invented it and the Arabs copied it from the Indians.

And not to leave out the Buddha, it is Kharmic.

Islamic State claiming responsibility in this attack on their enemies the Iranian backed Hezbollah that’s been fighting with Assad’s forces, Iranian militia and now the Russians in Syria.

The best was when al Qaida bombed the Iranian embassy in Beirut two years ago.

you never hear about al Quaida anymore. What happened to them? Did ISIS steal their ball and go home with it?

God forgive me, the picture of the man whose head landed by (his?) foot made me feel all warm & fuzzy.

Other than that I felt no compassion at all. Totally apathetic.

They kill daily. DAILY.

And yet, that’s somehow not important enough for the Nightly News.

The confused homicide bombers must have thought they were in Paris. What’s with these uncivilized moron moozlums??? Just what will it take for civilized people to end this scourge on civil society?

I honestly don’t think we’ll see any progress until they start harming Americans on a daily basis.

And even then, with this WORTHLESS CIC and WORTHLESS Congress, I wouldn’t count on it!

It truly is every wo/man for themselves these days.

Keep your powder dry. ;)

I know that al Qaida is fighting ISIS in Syria and Libya and the US launched air strikes against both groups in those two countries. The Taliban in Afghanistan remains loyal to al Qaida and there’s now an ISIS group in Afghanistan and Pakistan that’s fighting the Taliban.
