Beirut - The Hizbullah militia and its supporters spent a good part of the day terrorizing Beirut citizens, blocking major roads, and dumping dirt along the airport road, blocking access to the airport.

Flights to and from Beirut's Rafik Hariri airport have been canceled.

Hooligans on motorcycles are touring Beirut neighborhoods, throwing insults and beating residents. Clashes between Hizbullah/Amal and March 14 supporters erupted in several mixed neighborhoods in the city.

The media is reporting heavy gunfire and use of rocket propelled grenades. The pro-Hizbullah labor unions, meanwhile, have called off today's strike, which LBC said, quoting government sources, was used by Hizbullah as an excuse for unleashing violence and exact revenge after Monday's cabinet decision to crack down on Hizbullah's spy network in the country.

LBC is reporting that Hizbullah will not re-open the airport road. Berri and Hizbullah have reportedly asked the government to reinstate the pro-Hizbullah airport security chief in return for ending their riots and occupation of the airport road.

The army is saying that it will "choose the right time" to re-open the road.

Wafiq Choukair, the pro-Hizbullah airport security chief fired by the government, is reporting to work as usual and refusing to relinquish his post.

LBC is still airing Ministry of Tourism spots promoting tourism in Lebanon, some calling Lebanon a "safe destination". One spot shows families reuniting at the airport.

With Hizbullah in de-facto occupation of the airport, those of us with families in Lebanon will have to wait until someone puts an end to Nasrallah's terrorism. The outlaw is scheduled to give a press conference from some hole in the ground tomorrow.
