The Lebanese government has authorized the army to “finish off” Islamic militants fighting Lebanese troops for the third straight day Tuesday in a refugee camp in the country’s north.

The decision by the Cabinet of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora reflected the government’s determination to pursue the Islamic militants who staged attacks on Lebanese troops on Sunday and Monday, killing 29 soldiers. Some 20 militants have also been killed, as well as an undetermined number of civilians.

Could this be a trend??
