From the Washington Post via the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: "Political chaos in Lebanon could complicate policy," by Anthony Shadid --
One of Lebanon's most pronounced political crises in a generation slid into bloodshed Tuesday when assailants showered gunfire on a car carrying an anti-Syrian politician and scion of the country's most prominent Christian family, killing him and a bodyguard and pushing Lebanon a step closer to civil strife.
The assassination of Pierre Gemayel, a divisive figure in a country riven by sectarian tension, underlined the escalating struggle over Lebanon's political future that has followed this summer's war between Hezbollah and Israel.
