The Greater Syrian Nazis — which is what that gang really is — has thousands of supporters in Lebanon. The attackers were probably Lebanese nationals.

Hitch probably wouldn’t have been beaten had he simply scrawled a swastika on the poster. They might have liked it.

Right - they’re Lebanese neo-Nazi skinheads.

Apparently it’s not popular to say it, but I applaud him for flipping the bird to those creeps. If more people had the guts (and a few drinks in them to loosen them up) these kinds of assholes might not have so much power.
