AMUSEMENT PARK BOMBED in Beirut!

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Wednesday, June 13. 2007 12:33
A bustling amusement park has been the scene of the latest bombing in Lebanon, which has apparently killed anti-Syrian MP Walid Eido, one of his sons, and two people accompanying him. Reportedly, as many as 20 other people were injured in the blast. This is the seventh bombing [the 6th successful] within the past six weeks, continuing Syria's attempt to topple the Lebanese government. You can find more details over at Pat's place - I'll post updates as soon as I have 'em.

UPDATE: Here's a firsthand account of the bombing, from a blogger who was on the scene! (h/t Gateway)

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.
