Hizbullah Cancels Annual Beirut Rally after Bombings

(Ynet News) Hizbullah will not hold its annual public rally in Beirut in mid-February marking the death of three of the group's leaders. The cancellation appears related to ten bombings since July in Hizbullah strongholds in Lebanon that left scores dead.

He is responsible for those killed in Lebanon."
