BEIRUT, Lebanon - An explosion, apparently from a bomb-rigged car, rocked Beirut's seafront Wednesday, killing at least eight people, security officials said.

The bomb targeted and killed anti-Syrian lawmaker Walid Eido, according to Future TV, which is close to Lebanon's anti-Syrian bloc.

Others among the dead reportedly were Eido's son and two bodyguards.

Between the Leb pali camps, the Syrian based Pali terrorists massing on the Lebanese border, and Hamas routing Fatah in Gaza, Iran and Syria are making their moves in preparation for their summer war against Israel.

I shudder to think what the headlines will read by this fall, especially when the only ones who seem to be on the offense right now are our enemies.

[jveritas]

We are on the offense much more than the terrorists are however their mass murders of civilians always take the headlines.

hmm, they’ve done it again.
