beirut hit by deadly street battles

@* what will be the excuse this time?

@* "BEIRUT (Reuters) - Lebanon's Iranian-backed Hezbollah took control of the Muslim part of Beirut on Friday, tightening its grip on the city in a major blow to the U.S.-backed government.
Security sources said at least 11 people had been killed and 30 wounded in three days of battles between pro-government gunmen and fighters loyal to Hezbollah, a Shi'ite political movement with a powerful guerrilla army."

typical action of a terrorist organisation

I hope one of these days will have some peace on their lands...
If is not another country attackin' them they attack eachothers...
I feel pitty for the innocent lifes that were lost...
Politicians suck big time, they don't even listen what is the wish of their own people...

@ioneluca, i agree. people should actually send a clear message to their politicians about their priorities, which undoubtedly is peace.

yes.. if is unity and, as i heard the majority is against this, they should wake up and do something once and for all... they should chose one way and that is the future... they live in present too much and not thinking too much at the future...
i am outsider and is easy to judge for me... but this is how i see things...
i lived a revolution in my country and i am glad that people had the power to raise against communism...

i agree ^^

get in line....everybody has it coming, its only a matter of time...

this time the cauz of this clashes is not of the isrealy..

It'll be funny if Hezbollah takes power. I have a feeling they'll end up like Hamas, sure they're great resistance fighters but they can't run a country for crap.

@tom, looks like the same scenario last year, remember?. soon enough the usual brainwashed clerics from both sides will start issuing fatwas calling to kill each other in another mini-civil war.

As long as they don't stop killing each other there is still hope. The problem will solve itself then. Shame innocent people have to suffer as well, but I guess that's all part of the "game".

Lol yeah, this stuff never ends.

Poor them

i hope every thing will be ok there , may them rest in peace .


you should be sad about the people who died not happy because of a fight between brothers no matter what happened there its there business and that wont give an excuse to USA or another country to take actions against Lebanon and its clear that hidden groups play with them , the same thing happened in Palestine with hamas . Palestine under occupation then Iraq followed it( the excuse was nuclear weapons that no one found ) now its Lebanon turn, the excuse gonna be those people killing each other , next Syria and Iran . what ever happen in this world no one can take our faith from us , 11 civilians died 100 will born , isreal killed hundred or Lebanese and no one opened his mouth , and for the 11 that u are my friend not sad for them they will take it as an excuse to invade that beautiful country , free Lebanon , free Iraq , free Palestine free arab world .

sabra and shatila holocausts





After u watch that please use your usual way
@ ATheBadSoul “ sarcastic ” bla bla bla


Have a nice day sir
Free Lebanon

@athebadsoul *sigh* who said i'm happy about it moron?. the ultimate absurdity of people shouting "free palestine and free lebanon" is that they can't even live in peace among themselves.
only a bigot like you and a handful of brainwashed would ignore such an obvious tragedy and still try to justify it blaming others.

why u called me moron and bigot ? dont u have better words to use or u feel weak ?


man every one doesnt follow what u believe is brainwashed dont u think this is not fair at all .


im not blaming anyone its history man , just look at its a a dirty game , Palestine they took it , then Iraq because of the nuclear weapons can u tell me where is those nuclear weapons ? , now Lebanon the same thing that happened in Palestine is happening now in Lebanon brothers fight each other so u think its a coincidence or those people are savages I bet u think those people are savages ? that’s what people like u want the world to see so when they invade them no one will feel sorry

@athebadsoul, i called you a moron because only an infantile mind could possibly interpret that i was "happy" about this s*it. i called you a bigot because instead addressing the actual problem in lebanon you chose to blame other parties, when some self-criticism is required.

"instead addressing the actual problem in lebanon you chose to blame other parties, when some self-criticism is required."
im suprised at you

why did you post that ,dont you know by now its always someone elses fault
im not sure he knows what self criticism means

oh and u think brothers lived all that time without fights now they are going to fight each other as simple as that ??


no my friend no way ,someone plays with both of them the same thing as i told u in Palestine brother fight each other . its a game my friend and don’t expect me to believe the s**t that happens just simple like that .


yes man u didnt even say sorry for them or may them rest in peace all your concern was savage people fight each other check your post , what u said is what is the excuse this time and im telling u , no one on earth has the excuse to take actions against Lebanon

and i didnt say what happened in Lebanon is something good , we must feel the shame that other people make us fight each other and they stole every good thing in our land , they stole the oil , intelligent minds , the stole the peace from us

@athebadsoul, i simply believe that you're most comfortable avoiding the truth that sunni and shia are capable and actually killing each other in lebanon, and that it's their sole responsability.
if the usual "conspiracy theories" ease your pain and makes you feel better, go ahead.

ps. about zero/binary system. *smiles* i'm not living in denial. if you simply take the time to check the link you gave me you will see that both subjects are dated back 400BC to india.

no that doenst make me more comfortable , what they did is something we feel the shame of it ,but the dosent give anyone the excuse to invade lebnon , mistakes happen and im sure they will over come it . i dont know it seem the topic was banned but no man the link says they took it from arab check the link for another time

As the Hindu decimal zero and its new mathematics spread from the Arab world to Europe in the
and i didnt say arab made the binary system , but if there is no zero then there is no binary system
stay cool

@athebadsoul, man, you're always so stubborn *smiles*
"The use of a blank on a counting board to represent 0 dated back in India to 4th century BC" AND "The ancient Indian writer Pingala developed advanced mathematical concepts for describing prosody, and in doing so presented the first known description of a binary numeral system, possibly as early as the 8th century BC"

man u are really silly if i wrote without arab there is not bianry system that doesnt mean they ivented it ,what i meant arab invented the zero the binary system is zero and one so no zero no binary system and yeah its your way to make of your weake something to laugh at


Etymology
The word "zero" came via French zéro from Venetian zero, which (together with "cipher") came via Italian zefiro from Arabic صفر, şafira = "it was empty", şifr = "zero", "nothing", which was used to translate Sanskrit śūnya ( शून्य ), meaning void or empty.
Italian zefiro already meant "west wind" from Latin and Greek zephyrus; this may have influenced the spelling when transcribing Arabic şifr.[5] The Italian mathematician Fibonacci (c.1170-1250), who grew up in Arab North Africa and is credited with introducing the Hindu decimal system to Europe, used the term zephyrum. This became zefiro in Italian, which was contracted to zero in Venetian, the modern English word.
As the Hindu decimal zero and its new mathematics spread from the Arab world to Europe in the Middle Ages, words derived from sifr and zephyrus came to refer to calculation, as well as to privileged knowledge and secret codes. According to Ifrah, "in thirteenth-century Paris, a 'worthless fellow' was called a "... cifre en algorisme", i.e., an "arithmetical nothing"."[5] From şifr also came French chiffre = "digit", "figure", "number", chiffrer = "to calculate or compute", chiffré= "encrypted". Today, the word in Arabic is still sifr, and cognates of sifr are common in the languages of Europe and southwest Asia.



The Indian numerals and the positional number system were introduced to the Islamic civilization by Al-Khwarizmi, the founder of several branches and basic concepts of mathematics. In the words of Philip Hitti, Al-Khwarizmi's contribution to mathematics influenced mathematical thought to a greater extent. His work on algebra initiated the subject in a systematic form and also developed it to the extent of giving analytical solutions of linear and quadratic equations, which established him as the founder of Algebra. The word algebra is derived from the title of his famous book Al-Jabr wa-al-Muqabilah, and the word algorithm is derived from his name.
Al-Khwarizmi's book on arithmetic synthesized Greek and Hindu knowledge and also

please stop acting silly

@athebadsoul, *laughs* do you really 'understand' what you actually copy and paste?

what ever refer to the link u will know the whole story about the zero

@athebadsoul, please stop behaving like a fool. you're a simply wrong. even the stuff you copy and paste proves you wrong.
you pasted "The Indian numerals and the positional number system were introduced to the Islamic civilization by Al-Khwarizmi"
what part of "were introduced" you don't understand?

man have u read what is in the link ? al-Khwarizmi was a Muslim , Indian used the world as the meaning empty they didnt give it numerical definition al-Khwarizmi did , and you people took that definition from us .

your ego making you an ignorant person who tries to cover him self by giving names to others
go read the link and come back again kid

@athebadsoul, trying to reason with you is useless and a complete waste of time. if you could read the stuff you ignorantly link/paste, you could read that "What is certain is that by around 650AD the use of zero as a number came into Indian mathematics."
grow up and you won't be called a moron.

like i care of someone like u called me moron, it seems your brain cant handle more information’s ,yes they knew the zero but not in the way we know ,they knew it as an empty set arabs developed it .


get a life and stop being bitchy and if u know that its a waste of time then stop replying to me and open discussion ,always you use your silly ways in talking @.. , "sarcastic " , "laughs ". man a little child can expect your behavior . and what u are going to write .


keep posting to “useless ” people makes your also useless so take care of your self and stop replying what a boring person you are .


good bye fishy

I don't know what zeros had to do with Lebanon but evidently you don't know jack about it. As Angry quoted, it was first used as number by Hindus, when Muslims didn't even existed.

in some cases bigger countries like to fed smaller countries "CANDY" as in some small arms and big arms weapons and some missiles and now that smal lcountrry thinks they can take ove the world..let take for instance not an actual event but i will pick..lebanon..syria or russia sends some weapons for a trade to lebanon and now lebanon thinks "ooh missisles" and goes around sending rockets and missisle in isreal and that pisses isreal off and a war breaks out...kapeesh! dont worry aint hating ya or whatever just clerics and brainwashed extremist think they can rule the world with some small arms weapons and do not know what they are TRULY up against...andsince we aided some countries we are called murderers and rapist..it might of happened fro mtime to time but it is sad and all..war is always not a pretty bouquet of flowers...war is disgusting and disgraceful and costly.. :P it is jsut a COLDWAR all over agai nand again..it was never over dude!! it supposed to end in 1991 but seems like a hidden agenda was set for the USA and attacks were made..that i why we retaliated..it isnt a shame to stand up for your country..andi somewhat support that...i dont like war period either

What is going on in Lebanon is unacceptable - we are very worried about this

Why cant u lot live together & not hate each other lol

hate is drummed into them from birth,its all they know

hehe.. here s the truth bro, we re not the ones who "hate" , lebanese people r very nice believe me ;) no offence but the problem is that some goverments "hate" 2 leave us in Peace!!!

i am tired about talking about that damn events in lebanon,iraq,somlaia and every place!!
the matter is that as i think it will be continued till end of life...

Some things won't ever change.

God be with you Beirut :(

hi guys, thnx 4 the topic!
i wanna say few things,
well yea unfortunantly there has been street fights in Beirut but the army is taking controle of it and should end it very soon..
actually the conflict is Not sunni chia or christian.., its between political parties (pro-goverment and opposition}
Hezbullah (as the majority of Lebanese think) is not a terrorist organization it s a lebanese resistance against Israily violations.. and they arn t the ones who started the fights in beirut there has been a manifistation and they were defending themself against an armed Militia attack..
And the real problem in Lebanon alot more than just betwen lebanese.. the series of political assassinations (more than 15) starting from late prime minister Hariri and though there has been an international investigations the criminals are still unvisible, the "Fath al Islam" terrorist group, and latelly the july 2006 war in which Israel and the USA tried 2 destroy Hezbullah.. and alot more which prove that "stability in Lebanon" is a problem for some goverments that needs 2 be solved..
and finally the lebannese people r not ready 2 repeat the civil war!! the biggest obstacle against "unity" we re facing is political conflicts which has taken too long and will end only by dialogue and negotiation not by "fights"..
hope that there will be peace everywhere not just in Lebanon!
have a nice day!!

2alla 2ouwet

Hezbullah take cantrol of free Lebanon as terrorist group in the name of Iran...
free Lenanon

yea ofcorse that s what pro-goverment media keep saying but that doesn t mean it s really what s going on,
there has been street battles between hezbullah and pro-goverment MILITIAS in Beirut but Hezbulla is not "invading" Beirut he is retreating and leaving controle to the Lebanese army.
but also any of this shouldn t happened..

I agree ....any of this shouldn t happened...

they burned my fathers clinic in hamra :@:@:@:@
if they come near the christian areas me and my LF buddies are gonna go shia hunting :-)

hehe 2alla 2alla!! bro : )
i m so sorry about ur father's clinic but Hezbullah is not the only one who s fiering u know..
anyway it s 2 bad all what s happening hope it will end soon :S
