southern Lebanese host Syrian refugees

""Everybody here is with President Assad and almost all of the refugees are against him," Abed says ... There is another reason why some pro-Assad supporters in the south have accepted Syrian refugees, regardless of their political affiliation. "They hosted us in the 2006 war, so we should host them," Abed says, referring to that year's month-long conflict between Hezbollah and Israel." (thanks Basim)
