Hizbullah and Allies Lose Majority in Lebanon's Parliamentary Elections
(Washington Post) Sarah Dadouch - Hizbullah and its allies have lost their majority in Lebanon's parliament, according to election results released Tuesday.

Hizbullah could regain the majority if it persuaded some independent candidates to join its bloc.
