I hope someone is planning on protecting the pro-Sistani Shiia from Hizbollah. It's wonderful and exceedingly brave of them to take this stand, Hizbollah will not be kind to them.
Guns are important for liberty, and not just in America. Hizbollah is the only armed millitia in Lebanon, which actually increases the chance of civil war, because it increases the chance that Hizbollah will think it can get away with repressing the liberty movement. Not so if there was a parity of arms.
