Two Wounded in Exchange of Fire between Zoaiter Family, ISF in Lailaki
An exchange of fire occurred on Tuesday between an Internal Security Forces unit in Beirut's southern suburb neighborhood of al-Lailaki, media reports said.
According to the National News Agency, gunmen from the Zoaiter family opened fire at an ISF patrol that seized four illegal vans and was moving them to detention, prompting them to respond.
A gunman and an ISF member were wounded in the exchange of fire.
The army intervened to control the situation after the Zoaiter family blocked al-Lailki road with burning tires.
The news agency said that the army is pursuing the gunmen.
Voice of Lebanon radio (100.5) had reported earlier that an ISF checkpoint in the area opened fire at a van that failed to comply with orders to stop, wounding a member of the Zoaiter family in his leg, which prompted his family to open fire at the patrol.

So under your reasoning if a Shia clan/mafia decides to break the law, then all Shia are the same? At least they don't have beards and preach terrorism like your allies in the North (those who openly believe Christians, Shia, Jews, etc. are infidels). The problem with you people is you think you're so civilized and yet all you preach is hatred and sectarianism. What is the difference between your ignorant comments and those of any other fundamentalist? See... the playing field is leveled now, you're not so different are you? Now I truly understand why you have no political weight and why you've become insignificant.

Dami. We do have a few rotten apples. One of them is in jail. it is called michel samaha. However your clan have plantation upon plantation of bad apples. Also some of your cheikhs have as a job description to transform good apples into rotten apples on a weekly basis. As a result, you have thousands of rotten apples.
As for the civil war, if the sunnites in the 70s were as lebanon loving as today, and not "palestinian cause"loving, the whole war would not have started. But hey, sunnites grew up and became lebanese. Still need the chiites to grow out of clanism and farsism, and we will be all set.

listen dude--the story is that HA by the implied and explicit use of force has banned the ISF and other authorities and entering their areas. Over the years, lots of criminals have moved into the area with this cover that there won't be any police or army there. In this areas which are predominately shia, there are people taking advantage of this. There is a higher criminal element in the shia community because there is little consequence to their actions--they steal or do whatever and then go back into their community, and they don't have a fear of getting caught.
Of course, if HA weren't only concentrating on being the so called resistance and providing havens out of state control for criminals to reside, you would have a point. Many would say that educating and developing the shia community into an economic force that don't have to resort to black market activities to make a living would be a good thing--except for the people in charge..

I hate Hezballah and their allies but when i read comments like the ones here i'm reminded of how how terrible supporters of March 14/LF can be. This kind of filthy language has no place in a civilized country. LF militia men used to cut the throats of civilians, including women and children but i don't blame the "christian sect" for that.
