Army moved to streets of Lebanon

 The spillover to border countries has started.  Is this the right time to say "We told you so" ?    Right now,  the army is patrolling one area of Lebanon .... won't be long before the entire place is under the military.

Syria spillover into Lebanon intensifies   with clashes in Sidon.  Army moves in after fighting between Sunni cleric’s followers and Hezbollah supporters.

The southern Lebanese city of Sidon erupted in heavy clashes as followers of a radical Sunni cleric battled gunmen believed to be sympathisers of the Shia-backed Hezbollah, in the latest outbreak of violence between factions supporting opposing sides in the Syrian conflict.

Fighting began after Amjad al-Assir, the brother of the prominent cleric Sheikh Ahmed al-Assir, was attacked in his car by men throwing stones in the neighbourhood of Abra. The cleric is a vocal critic of Hezbollah in the mostly Sunni city.

One man was killed and at least six injured, according to the Red Cross. As evening fell, an uneasy ceasefire took hold and the Lebanese army moved in. It is the worst fighting the area has seen in years........
