Now, now, we all know this wouldn't be happening if the U.S. wasn't in Lebanon! Oh, wait, we AREN'T in Lebanon. My bad. Please forgive me. It's all date palms and fig pies in the Middle East.
The Sunni Moslems and the Shiite Moslems are killing themselves in Lebanon. And just this month, Conde Nast Traveler did a piece on how Beirut has rebuilt itself after the 15 year civil war that previously destroyed it. I don't know if the Lebanese "government" has the resources to prevent these two sects from destroying Beirut again.
Here's an idea!
America, under the leadership of George Bush and Dick Cheney, has solved the Sunni/Shiite problem in Iraq, so let's just help out the Lebanese and solve it there, too!

Now I'm really confused . If the Sunni's and Shiite's can get along in Lebanon , why can't they get along in Iraq ?

We fixed it in Iraq, we can fix it in Labanon.
Tell me about peaceful Sadr City, now please...
I know... sarcasm.
"Tell me about peaceful Sadr City, now please..."
Point is, it isn't happening because coalition forces liberated Iraq.

Did you read the story? ...
"...the second day of clashes between Sunni Muslims loyal to the government and Shiite supporters of Hezbollah."
In other words, they aren't getting along.
Thank You libs . I had just woke up and was not entirely aware . Well I never am [ totally aware ] .
