Rare Public Anger at Hizbullah after Crackdown on Street Vendors
A police raid against unlicensed street vendors in Beirut's southern suburbs has caused a rare public expression of anger in a stronghold of Hizbullah.
The raid early Wednesday in the Hay el-Sellom neighborhood was carried out by the Internal Security Forces, which used bulldozers to take down shacks where vendors mainly sold coffee and mobile phones.
Dozens of angry residents poured into the streets, burning tires and blocking some roads to prevent the police from approaching their properties.
The protest turned against Hizbullah, which had promoted the campaign against violators. In an usual move, some took their grievances to live TV, demanding compensation from Hizbullah and even cursing the group's leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.
Public displays of anger against Hizbullah in Lebanon are rare, especially in the group's strongholds.

They are right to get pissed. These vendors "rent" their spots from neighborhood gangs affiliated and protected by members of the Hebz.

You'll find the fundamentalist minions can't answer direct questions. They'll try to redirect and run, the truth to them is "offensive" specially when they're confronted.

I am very much a Cristhian but I was busy with my boyfriend The mowatic and that is why I did not rush to defend the honor of Sheikh Bashir when there was all the blablablablabla about him.

Why do I keep making the mystic.. err.. mistake, my boyfriend is The Mystic, mowaten is a completely different guy who's beliefs coincidentally are identical in every way to my boyfriend The mowa.. Mystic.

@blablabla
GTFO you pos! Your inferiority complex knows no bounds. You think you are fooling anyone by claiming you are a Christian? There is nothing Christian about you. You are a Takiah practicing shia fundamentalist. It is obvious to all except you.
You must have such low self-esteem to play these repulsive games. Go back to your boardroom meeting you might miss on some lucrative calls or puts you've placed in the stock market.

These were no street vendors. They built permanent structures and many of them were concrete structure built on street pavements! The woman in the video claims because dahieh is sending its men and children to die for nassrallah, it is nassrallah's job to protect them and help them evade the law.
That is the " You Owe Me" mentality of hezbollah and its deluded uncivilized followers.

one man from dahieh says in the video: " Before hezbollah controlled dahieh there was one criminal, now there are 1,000 criminals. There was one drug dealer, now there are 1,000 drug dealers, etc"
His own people are incriminating the terrorist nassrallah.

Those ungrateful ingrates, we rebuilt their homes that the Israelis destroyed during the war that we started and they treat us like this! Shame!... what?.. what do you mean we did not rebuild anything!! Who then? The Qatari, Saudi and gulf Wahhabis did? Are you sure? Even my five star sewer? I'm shocked!

I think you all are missing the point. Hezbollah is what it is because of the people that support it. The shia made hezbollah and today yet again they showed who they really are. Imagine they are accusing hezbollah of betraying them and letting them down by not standing up to the local government.
They are criminals, outlaws and thugs.

lol @ the shia heretic:)
I listened to the the interviews and these people are unbelievable!!! They believe because they are hezbollah supporters they are entitled to break the law and have special privileges.
