| Two explosions targeting the Iranian embassy hit the Lebanese capital Beirut on Tuesday, security sources said, killing at least eighteen people and damaging buildings in the embassy compound. It was not immediately clear whether the ambassador or any diplomatic staff were among the victims. No one at the embassy was reachable by phone. Live footage from local news channels showed charred bodies on the ground as flames rose from the remains of several vehicles. Aid workers and residents carried away some of the victims on blankets. It was not immediately clear what caused the blasts. A security source said the blasts were caused by two rockets fired on the area, in the southern part of the city, but a second security source said there was a car bomb explosion. The loss of life is tragic and no decent person bwahaha, bwahaha, bwahaha |

| #5 EU6305, everyone knows that the Juices are very sneaky, so they probably had al Qaeda take responsibility for the attack. /sarcasm |

| #2 Iran is blaming the Israelis, which is a really poor cheap gratuitous shot. I would be more inclined to think our "buddies" on whichever side is fighting against Hezbollah in the Syrian "rebellion" are to blame. The Israelis are never quite this heavy handed. Chickens are starting to come home to roost in the ME. |
