Yeah this uprising has calmed down for a minute, But Hezbollah will not let it rest for to long.
Expect to see more.
Harretz.com
Lebanon security officials reopened all roads and remove barriers across the country, after thousands of Sunnis poured into the streets to protest against the new prime minister chosen by Hezbollah and its allies.
Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati is set to begin the process of forming a new Cabinet and is scheduled to visit former premiers later Wednesday.
Hezbollah and its allies ousted the Western-backed government two weeks ago by quitting the Cabinet.
Mikati, a billionaire businessman, has called for a unity government.
Thousands of protesters have taken to the streets across the country over the last two days, burning tires, throwing rocks and accusing Hezbollah of a coup d'etat.
Security officials said Wednesday that army and police forces would prevent any road closures. They spoke on condition of anonymity, in line with regulations.

Israel troops on alert after Lebanon govt falls
Nice eh? Hezbollah Pulls out of the Lebanese Government and wreaks Havoc on the whole region.
Guaranteed Israel will not sit by with its hands tied if Hezbollah decides to get a little froggy.
Foxnews
JERUSALEM – Israeli troops in the north were on alert Thursday over worries that the political turmoil in Lebanon might spill over into renewed violence on their shared border, following the collapse of the Lebanese government.
The Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group and its allies threw the already volatile Lebanon into chaos on Wednesday by pulling out of the government and causing it to collapse.
Hezbollah, which clashed with Israel in a monthlong war in 2006, bolted over the government continued cooperation with a U.N. tribunal investigating the 2005 assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Hezbollah expects the tribunal to indict some of its members. It timed the dissolution of the government to coincide with the White House visit of the current prime minister, Hariri's son Saad.
A senior officer in Israel's northern command said commanders were following events in Lebanon very closely for any sign Hezbollah might try to heat up the already jittery northern border to deflect attention from the political turmoil.

U.S. Drops Hold on Aid to Lebanese Military
Another smart move by the Obama Administration?
Hezbollah will be getting some more funding soon !
Foxnews
WASHINGTON—U.S. lawmakers lifted a congressional hold on $100 million in military assistance for Lebanon's armed forces, as the Obama administration moved to bolster Beirut's pro-Western government.
In recent weeks, the militant Lebanese organization, Hezbollah, has issued increasing threats against Prime Minister Saad Hariri amid reports that a United Nations-backed court is preparing to indict Hezbollah members for the 2005 murder of Mr. Hariri's father, former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Washington has provided Lebanon's military with an estimated $720 million in aid since 2006 in an effort to develop the institution as a counterweight to Hezbollah, which receives its arms and funding from Iran and Syria, and has grown as a political force with seats in the Lebanese government.
"We reviewed our assistance to Lebanon and concluded that it is vital, given ongoing challenges to the Lebanese state from Hezbollah and others," State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said Friday.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad calls for 9/11 investigation
Blah,Blah,Blah !
Same old Bullshit out of this little Piece of shit.
So Hizbollah gathers it's legions of Monkey's and makes them throw rice and cheer for Mr. Imalitlmunky, But what the hell is up with slaughtering Camels?
These truly are some demented Fucksticks that just need to go !
Telegraph.co.uk
Mahmoud fuelled his claims that the US government was behind the Sept 11 attack on America and demanded to ‘know the truth of what happened’ during his visit to Lebanon.
Speaking at a late night rally, he said: “I announce that the formation of an independent and neutral team to examine the facts and discover the truth of the September 11 events is the demand of all the peoples of the region and the world.”
Earlier in the day, thousands held up flowers and Iranian flags as Mr Ahmedinejad waved through the open roof of an armoured car that carried him through the Shia Muslim strongholds of south Beirut, the Lebanese capital.
Hizbollah, Iran's local ally, mobilised its followers to throw rice and slaughter camels as the motorcade passed by.
It was, however, a welcome that ran just one street deep and normal life – bereft of Iranian flags – continued yards away from the old airport road used by the Iranian leader to reach a summit with his Lebanese counterpart, Michel Sleiman.

Hezbollah 'mentor' Fadlallah dies in Lebanon
No not every Muslim is a bad guy , and just because this guy was a progressive in the Islamic world does not he was a sweetheart ! He helped form Hezbollah .
His death just signifies one less Islamic reject walking the Earth !
BBC
Lebanon's top Shia Muslim cleric, seen as a key figure in the founding of militant group Hezbollah, has died at the age of 74.
Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah was regarded as Hezbollah's spiritual guide after the group was founded in 1982, a charge both denied.
An implacable critic of the US, he had a wide following among Shias and backed the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran.
But he was known among Shias for his moderate social views.
He held particularly progressive views on the role of women in Islamic society.

U.S. concerned Syria may be giving Scuds to Hezbollah
Hezbollah is playing with some big toys now .
What could they possibly want with some Scud Missiles ?
Israeli and U.S. officials, saying that that Syria has transferred Scuds to Hezbollah in a move that threatens to alter the Middle East military balance.
So if the real crazy Islamic Extremists (Hezbollah) Get bigger and better Weaponry than they ever had before , some parts of the Middle east (Israel) should watch their backs ? (Or the Skies)
(Reuters) - The White House expressed concern on Wednesday about allegations Syria has transferred long-range Scud missiles to the Lebanese guerrilla group Hezbollah and said it had raised the issue at the highest level.
"We are obviously increasingly concerned about the sophisticated weaponry that ... is allegedly being transferred," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs told reporters. "We have expressed our concerns to those governments."
Gibbs was responding to a question about a Wall Street Journal report, citing Israeli and U.S. officials, saying that that Syria has transferred Scuds to Hezbollah in a move that threatens to alter the Middle East military balance.

Hizbollah to get "an arm and an eye inside the Security Council."
Nothing to see here folks...just another terror organization at the UN. It's par for the course.
<-- Islamofascist Hizbollah supporters.
From Fox News
On Jan. 1, 2010, Hezbollah and its de-facto ruler Iran could have a direct line to the Security Council and gain access to all the confidential information to which Security Council members are privy.
In October the U.N. General Assembly overwhelmingly voted for Lebanon to be the Asian bloc's new non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for a 2-year term.
Earlier today the Lebanese Government endorsed Hezbollah's demand allowing it to keep its huge weapons arsenal. In doing so the Lebanese government is able to maintain its shaky unity government in which Hezbollah, a designated terrorist group by the U.S. state department, holds two ministries.[...]
Analysts point to the influence wielded by the Iranian-funded Hezbollah in Lebanon as a cause for concern over Lebanon's acceptance into the Security Council. Walid Phares, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Fox News contributor on terrorism, was one of the architects of U.N. Resolution 1559 which passed in 2004 and called for the immediate disarmament of armed militias. Given the new structure of the Lebanese government that now includes Hezbollah, he says the organization will have "an arm and an eye inside the Security Council."

UAE sentences US citizen to jail for funding terrorism
A US citizen of Lebanese background that is. Reuters
DUBAI (Reuters) - A U.S. citizen of Lebanese origin has been sentenced by a United Arab Emirates court to 18 months in prison on terrorist charges relating to Israel and Iraq, newspapers reported on Tuesday. Naji Hamdan was found guilty of funding and supporting terrorism and having links with Iraqi militant group Ansar al-Sunna because he entered an Islamist website and donated money to an Islamic charity, Gulf News said.
Hamdan will serve only four months in prison before being deported, since he has already spent 14 months in detention. The maximum penalty for the charges is 15 years in jail.
Prosecutors had said the money Hamdan donated was used in actions against Israel.

Illegal Lebanon arms may have been Hezbollah's: U.N.
O.K. so Hezbollah , has been stockpiling weapons where it is not supposed to , they have been actively maintaining their stockpile , Stockpile goes Boom !
The U.N says it is a Serious violation of resolution 1701 , And they scold Hezbollah ! ( Sort of ) , now what ?
will the U.N do anything else ?
Hell No !
Will the U.N. levy sanctions against hezbollah or Lebanon ?
Hell No !
Will the U.N. just sit on their ass and do nothing ?
Hell yeah !
....
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.N. peacekeeping chief has said there are signs an illegal weapons stockpile that exploded last week in southern Lebanon belonged to the Lebanese guerrilla movement Hezbollah.
In a speech delivered behind closed doors to the Security Council Thursday, U.N. peacekeeping chief Alain Le Roy also said that some of the people who tried to prevent U.N. peacekeepers in Lebanon (UNIFIL) from investigating the site were Hezbollah members dressed in civilian clothes.
"A number of indications suggest that the depot belonged to Hezbollah, and, in contrast to previous discoveries by UNIFIL and the Lebanese Armed Forces of weapons and ammunition, that it was not abandoned but, rather, actively maintained," he told the 15-nation council in the speech, obtained by Reuters.
Le Roy said the mere presence of such arms south of the Litani River represented a "serious violation of resolution 1701." U.N. diplomats told Reuters it was the first time the world body has criticized Hezbollah so directly and sharply.
Security Council resolution 1701, which ended the 34-day war in 2006 between Israel and Hezbollah, banned all unauthorized weapons between the Litani River and the Blue Line, the U.N.-monitored border between Israel and Lebanon.

Rockets from Lebanon hit Israel amid Gaza offensive
Now Lebanon wants to play with Israel ! missiles were fired and Israel struck back ,that seems to be it so far , Maybe they were just doing a little test to see how Israel will respond ?
....
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Several rockets fired from Lebanon struck northern Israel Thursday, slightly wounding two people, police and medics said, in attacks seen as linked to Israel's war on Hamas Islamists in the Gaza Strip.
Israel hit back after a first salvo with artillery shells in what an Israeli army spokesman described as "a pinpoint response at the source of fire" -- a limited military reaction that appeared to signal a desire to avoid escalation.
Three hours later, Israeli emergency services said at least one more rocket had landed. There appeared to be no casualties.
There were no reports of casualties in Lebanon.
It was not immediately clear whether Lebanon's Hezbollah guerrillas -- against whom Israel fought a 2006 war -- or Palestinians fired the rockets in a new challenge to the Jewish state on the 13th day of a Gaza campaign.
Lebanese security sources said they felt it was unlikely Hezbollah fired the salvoes, which came from an area controlled by U.N. peacekeepers and the Lebanese army, about 3 km (two miles) north of the border. Hamas sources in Lebanon denied involvement.
In the Gaza Strip, Israeli aircraft bombed targets across the Hamas-ruled territory, killing three militants and a woman. A civilian was shot dead during an army raid in southern Gaza.
U.S. backing for a truce proposal raised expectations of an end to an onslaught that has killed more than 600 Palestinians.
Israeli forces have been on alert in the north, anticipating that Hezbollah or Palestinian groups could fire rockets into northern Israel and lend support to Hamas and the Gaza Strip's 1.5 million inhabitants. Some 4,000 Hezbollah rockets hit Israel in the 2006 conflict.
"We took into account there would be an attempt by Palestinian groups to express solidarity," Israeli cabinet minister Shalom Simchon said after the rocket attack.
Shi'ite Hezbollah has not opened fire since Israel started bombarding the Gaza enclave on December 27 with the declared aim of halting Hamas rocket attacks.
Palestinian groups in Lebanon have also been known to fire rockets and Israeli military affairs commentators said it was more likely they were responsible for the rockets that hit the Israeli resort town of Nahariya and three other locations.
One rocket punched a hole in the roof of a home for the elderly in Nahariya. The Magen David Adom ambulance service said two people were slightly wounded and several were treated for shock after what police said were at least three rocket strikes.
