TRIPOLI, LEBANON - JULY 27: A picture of President Bashar al-Assad and Alawite martyrsis displayed in the neighborhood of Jabal Mohsen on July 27, 2012 in Tripoli, Lebanon. Conflict between residents of the Sunni, Bab al-Tebbaneh neighborhood and the Alawite Muslims of the Jabal Mohsen neighborhood has increased in recent months. The Bab al-Tebbaneh Sunnis are supporters of the Syrian revolution and accuse the Alawites of destabilizing Lebanon to benefit Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. The Alawite Muslims accuse the Sunnis of harboring terrorists. The two branches of the faith have been in conflict with each other for centuries. (Photo by Kaveh Kazemi/Getty Images)
