[QUOTE]The Al-Qaeda-inspired Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) claimed responsibility Friday for this week's Beirut hotel suicide bombing, warning that dozens of more men plan to carry out similar attacks.
The claim, in an online statement, was the first by the group for a suicide attack in Lebanon. It recently captured wide areas in northern Iraq and eastern Syria.
A suicide bomber blew himself up at a Beirut's Duroy Hotel on Wednesday when security forces raided it to arrest him. His accomplice was wounded and was being questioned at a Beirut hospital.
Lebanese officials said both men were from Saudi Arabia. Eleven people, including three security men, were wounded in the blast.
The statement said the two men blew themselves up while surrounded by members of the country's powerful General Security. It claimed that the security agency is loyal to the militant Hezbollah group that has been fighting in Syria along with President Bashar Assad's forces.
It referred to Hezbollah which is Arabic for party of God as "the party of Satan."
"We tell the party of Satan and its army in Lebanon that this is only the beginning. Get ready for hundreds of martyrs who love the blood of Rafida," the group said, using a derogatory term for Shiite Muslims.
It was the third suicide bombing in Lebanon in less than a week and sparked fears of renewed violence.
Lebanon has been hit by a wave of attacks over the past year that left scores of people dead.

Hezbolla has been against ISIS for ages. They suspect that is one of the ways ISIS became so powerful. To fight a skilled, resourceful foe you must yourself become skilled and resourceful.
Imagine if they devoted all that energy to building and improving things

They've been brainwashed into intolerance. Nothing to be done on that front.
Can we go to the u.n. security council now? I mean they've invaded sovern territory of Iraq, crucified and executed hundreds if not a few thousand, they're fighting like 3 states and are threatening Lebanon now, this is like exactly what a u.n. task force is ment to stop

There are ways to un-brainwash people. But it takes time and requires them to be held away from those who brainwashed them to begin with.

No, the UN security council is purposed to serve the interests of those sitting in their seats. Not serve the greater good of humanity. Why do think they're not ever rotated out?

True, but would it even be possible to recover what was underneath in the first place? or will people consider it to be worth their time to do so? Correct me if I'm wrong, but if we reach the level where deprogramming is the only way to even possibly bring back what was in there in the first place, you're looking at a broken individual. Sure, exit counselling might work to an extent, but eh, if we never try, we'll never know.
jesus, i used to live less than five minutes away from that place when I lived in Beirut.
Lebanon can't ever catch a fuckin break
