إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Security forces from the AMAL party opened fire on Tuesday at a vehicle that did not halt at a checkpoint in Beirut's southern suburb of Dahieh, reported MTV.

It said that they fired at Range Rover, with tinted windows, after it failed to stop at an AMAL checkpoint in the Farhat neighborhood in Dahieh.

Party members in the area soon went on alert and began searching a number of nearby cars.

Police dogs were used in the efforts to make sure that no booby-trapped vehicles were in the vicinity, said MTV.

Voice of Lebanon radio (93.3) had denied however that a shooting had taken place on Tuesday morning.

Hizbullah had stepped up security measures in Dahieh and cities in southern Lebanon in light of a car bombing in the area on Thursday that claimed the lives of 30 people and wounded 336 others.

A number of booby-trapped cars have been found since then, including one in the Naameh area in southern Lebanon.

Eight people, of Lebanese and Palestinian nationalities, were found involved in the scheme to detonate the car in another area.

Security agencies seized on Saturday afternoon an Audi car filled with 250 kilograms of explosives near the municipality building in Naameh.

The Naameh plot was to be the first of a series of attacks, well-informed sources told As Safir newspaper on Monday.

FT don't be fooled by an MTV so-called "report". its the hezb that handles security issues, not amal. this sounds like bollocks

And and citizen of Isfahan, what source do you use for your 'verified' information? Al Manar TV inchallah?

Thumb _mowaten_ 20 August 2013, 16:06

ben of zona, i'm amazed you actually are aware of the concept of verified information! you therefore no longer have an excuse for not verifying everything you say here.

Thumb _mowaten_ 20 August 2013, 11:13

So you're actually saying that Starsky condones and is happy about people being murdered in cold blood?!
Is that what would be going through your head if you were in his place?? Shame on you.

Thumb _mowaten_ 21 August 2013, 12:09

lol that was so lame that you had to use an anonymous account

I have posted other times on this website. But I do think anonymous accounts are the way to go. What does it matter who is saying the words? its the ideas that matter.

History repeats itself... In 1975 on Cité Sportive boulevard.. other factions check points ended in shooting at an Engineer who did not stop at the so called `Security Check´... This is the result of the absence of the state and proliferation of weapons...

Thumb geha 20 August 2013, 16:02

exactly my point. we have seen this happen already, and we can consider ourselves in civil war once more.
under several excuses, militias have taken over the security, arguing the state cannot protect them anymore and the end result was and still is, civil war.

Thumb _mowaten_ 20 August 2013, 16:08

well, seeing as you've been calling for civil war for years now, you would be happy if you think that's where we are.

Thumb lebanon_first 20 August 2013, 17:11

All you guys are pathetic with your civil war talk. This is not civil war. This is a foreign terror group fighting a local bullying milicia in the milicia's turf. Full stop. Stop blowing things out of proportions.

can't believe I agree with you--that's twice in one month.

Thumb benzona 20 August 2013, 15:36

A wireless and southern are one and a same person. Chéyif ya FT? Qui pense mal agit mal!

It's you m8ers hi try to drown us into an inexistent crowd of supporters.

Thumb benzona 20 August 2013, 15:37

3 red thumbs from southern, FT and Movaten.

Thumb benzona 20 August 2013, 15:37

Obviously red ones!

Thumb _mowaten_ 20 August 2013, 16:03

lol, i wish i could show you a screenshot, but nevermind, believe what you want benzona

Thumb geha 20 August 2013, 15:59

Once militias start to take over security from one side, the other side will do the same. we have seen it previously, and it is called: civil war.
we saw a lot of such firings during the civil war which means we will see a lot more.

Thumb _mowaten_ 20 August 2013, 16:25

how dare they protect human lives! those scumbags are trying to destroy the country instead of saving it by letting takfiris blow up dahiyeh!! that is unacceptable, we must start a war against hezbollah to prevent a civil war!!!

Thumb geha 20 August 2013, 18:21

your are just an illiterate idiot that knows nothing about his own history.
the same scenario is happening all over once more and you are too blind to see it. crazy idiot.

Thumb _mowaten_ 20 August 2013, 18:25

at least i can make my points with more than just insults, i leave those to feeble minds.

Thumb lebanon_first 20 August 2013, 17:05

Beautifully said Texas.

Thumb cedre 20 August 2013, 17:37

hizbo dont represent the 1.5 million lebanese shias...

Thumb cedre 20 August 2013, 17:41

zionists and takfiris are hizbo blessed pretext to take control of the state. They should thank bashar to have released so many of them from jail and maliki to have let hundreds escape from abu ghraib last month...

Thumb cedre 20 August 2013, 20:25

well banoma3roof, when Bashar will fall, lots of weapons will pour in sunnis hands, so if LAF does want to do it, sunnis will do it...

Thumb proudlebanon 20 August 2013, 23:10
