KFC Outlet in Nabatiyeh Comes Under Machinegun Fire

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Unknown assailants opened fire from their machineguns on a KFC restaurant in Nabatiyeh at dawn Wednesday, causing material damage, media reports said.

The drive-by shooting took place at 3:30 am, they said.

The Army Intelligence immediately cordoned off the area and launched an investigation, the reports added.

The incident was most likely linked to the attack on another KFC restaurant in the northern city of Tripoli last Friday when an an angry crowd of Islamists set fire to the U.S. fast-food chain's outlet.

After setting the restaurant alight, the demonstrators tried to attack a Burger King outlet but army troops prevented them.

A demonstrator was killed and 25 people hurt in the clashes with police during the protest against a U.S.-made film that mocks Islam.

Pepsi is owned by juice, Colonel Sanders was a Zionist.

Coke is owned by the same company as Pepsi, Fanta so avoid that 2.

Sorry kanaandian... but this is BS!

obviously your education is lacking or non existent. Actually while Pepsi does own KFC, Hardees and Pizza Hut, Coke is its own company and owns other brands.

Coke and Pepsi are competitors and are not owned by the same company. If you have any other proof, please present it.

Does anyone know what a "franchise" is?

Well said thepatriot you forgot the American car that their leader drives. Rudy not many one eyed people know what a franchise is ,the only franchise they know is Iran..

Good point, goes both ways i guess. I never thought of it this way before, but basically, KFC is an american franchise run by lebanese, employing lebanese and paying royalties.

Hezballah is an iranian franchise employing lebanese and run by lebanese. instead of royalties, they provide security (in the sense that they will create the distraction when needed)

why KFC tho ? makes no sense , everything we use is owned by the US. everytime we use our VISA or master card we get charged for it and money goes to the USA, all the products in our home, the technologies we use everyday. we depend on the USA for these things, and that shouldnt be a problem. But fried chicken ?? thats a problem ? i dont understand.
