#1 Next time remove them with a few rocket propelled grenades. That will avoid this.

#2 Half the fun of Muhammadanism is all the fussing, fighting and feuding. This hypes up the drama and makes this cult more pervasive than it already is. As if praying butt up five times a day, incendiary Friday sermons and the Ramadan fasting isn't enough to imprint Muhammadanism on their brains.

#3 all the fussing, fighting and feuding predates Mohammed by a few millenia. M. was embedded in his culture, else his Allah would have thought to forbid such things, for the benefit of the rest of mankind.

#4 The curse of the Arab's Mohammedanism is springing from such a dry region. Deserts and arid regions produce nomadic warriors, always fighting over the rarest resource, water. Control of the water and control of grazing areas are what traditionally made for an Arab leader's power base. In more built up areas, Mesopotamia, the man at the top controlled the irrigation schemes thus controlling the water.
Deserts produce people with strict fierce mentalities:
- which Allah has
- which Muhammad aped
- which Muslims copy from Muhammad (they are commanded to emulate Muhammad's life)
- which is the way Muslims always try to dominate non Muslims

#5 Tony has much more on this incident at:

http://beirut2bayside.blogspot.com/2005/04/dispelling-myths.html

the loudspeakers are there, apparently, because Hizb Allah has designated this area for a mosque. The townies don't especially like being bullied by Hizb Allah and the anti Hizb Allah feeling is continuing to grow, mostly in Sunni, Christian and Druze areas.
