Another Bomb in Christian Neighborhood of Lebanon

This is what happens when Christians get uppity in Muslim societies.

Fox:

Late Friday's explosion near the main square of picturesque Christian port city of Jounieh (search), 15 kilometers (10 miles) north of Beirut, killed a Sri Lankan woman, the state-run news agency and a leading TV station said. Police reported only two dozen injuries, half of them light from flying glass.

The blast shattered windows and started a shop fire. It also shook the nearby Maronite Catholic church at the entrance to the old souk, or market, and the office of Sawt al-Mahabba, a Christian religious radio station. The station had aired live broadcasts early Friday of a sit-in by relatives of Lebanese prisoners held in Syrian jails.

1 Well, their own fault. Stupid to take something as useless and illogical as religion seriously enough to start preaching your minority religion in a country that hasn't been Christian since Rome. Not saying it's right to kill people because of their religious beliefs, but still, they were asking for it.

2 i am a lebanese christian girl and i want to tell all the world that we know that this bomb was not directed to the voice of charity because it is christian but because they talked one day before about hundreds of lebanese unfairly detained in the syrian jails just because they wanted syria to go out of their country.

3 Terror bombings in civilian areas, Christains killed and beheaded and blown up. Why is that the so called religion of peace feels right at home about the senseless murder of people expressing an opinion, or those that want a foreign invader to go home? I have been called many things, by many ignorant people, but I wouldn't kill anyone unless they attacked me, nor would I randomly kill people who had nothing to do with it.

4 If I were in an unstable country, I would make effort to get rid of the people making the country even more unstable with ideas and protests that seem utterly ridiculous to me. The majority might be thinking that if the Muslim "peacekeepers" leave, they will be replaced with "peacekeepers" from US. Having people of same religion, race and language occupying is way better than a culture and race they have hated since the crusades.
