In the northern camp, the war on the militants was sparked when Fatah al Islam employed one of its fund-raising techniques: a bank robbery. The bank job went wrong from the start. Lebanon’s Internal Security Forces trailed the thieves back to an apartment block in an affluent Tripoli neighborhood, which turned out to be a militant safe house. The security teams stormed the building at dawn. When news of the fight reached the nearby camp, Fatah al Islam militants attacked Lebanese army units, slaughtering more than a dozen soldiers. The army struck back with great force. The fight lasted more than ninety days.
