(Daily Star-Lebanon) A YouTube video purporting to show Hizbullah fighters shooting to death several wounded Syrians has sparked outrage on social media sites. The video shows several men dressed in camouflage fatigues and sporting yellow ribbons on their shoulders. After they pull several severely wounded men out of a van, they shoot them to death at point blank range.
