More Trouble in Lebanon...AQ? Syria?

http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/meast/...nce/index.html

Lebanese Army is taking on a Sunni group (Fatah al-Islam), possibly with ties to AQ and/or Syria, in a Palestinian refugee camp outside of Tripoli. According to news accounts its the worst intra-Lebanon violence since the civil war. Obviously, there's potential for escalation here.

Medieval history is a hobby of mine (a dream vacation of mine is to travel overland from Instanbul to Cairo), so I've got a bit of a soft spot for Lebanon. Its pretty tragic to watch this beautiful little country inescapably caught in the crossfire.
