The security official, Brig. Gen. Wissam al-Hassan, was apparently the intended target of the explosion, which ripped into buildings, upended cars and shattered windows for blocks in the most serious bombing to hit Beirut in at least four years. He was declared dead a few hours after the blast in an announcement on Lebanese television.
BEIRUT, Lebanon — A large bomb exploded in the heart of Beirut’s Christian section on Friday, killing a top Lebanese security official and at least seven others, wounding dozens and spreading panic in a city where memories of sectarian violence from Lebanon’s long civil war have been resurrected by the conflict in neighboring Syria.

Christians need to get out of the middle east period because A: the Muslims will keep doing this and B: if its not the muslims then its some government who wants to involve the usa in its conflict. They might as well paint targets on their backs. Offer them religious protection and a place to stay in the USA I'm sure we have room for them

Christians were in the middle east before Muslims, but yes Christians have been forced out of the middle east, they can come here but this wont stop the problem. I don't know what will.
OH wait yes I know what will stop them.
All that's necessary for the forces of evil to win in the world is for enough good men to do nothing.
