En ces fêtes de Pâques, le mot “paix” est décliné dans toutes les langues. Par les fidèles des Eglises chrétiennes occidentales qui ont célébré la résurrection, par les dizaines de milliers de marcheurs qui depuis vendredi sillonnent l’Europe du Nord mais aussi par les chrétiens d’Irak, dont la survie est menacée dans un pays ensanglanté quotidiennement. 

Depuis la chute du régime de Saddãm Hussein et la montée en puissance des mouvements islamistes, la communauté chrétienne d’Irak est victime d’une véritable hémorragie. Cela a commencé à Bassorah, où nombre de chrétiens chaldéens s’étaient installés pour ouvrir divers commerces, et en particulier des magasins vendant de l’alcool. On comptait quelque 500 familles au début des années 70.

Victimes d’attentats, ils ont tous fui, presque immédiatement après la chute du raïs. Cela a continué à Bagdad et à Mossoul, où l’implantation catholique remonta au premier siècle de l’ère chrétienne. Pendant près d’un an, les membres de cette Eglise ne se sont pas sentis visés pour leur croyance mais d’être victimes, comme les autres Irakiens, de l’anarchie et de l’insécurité générales. Puis, les enlèvements et les meurtres se sont multipliés et ont bouleversé la communauté qui jusqu’alors ne se croyait pas menacés par les islamistes dans ces deux villes.

Le 13 mars 2008, la découverte du corps de M^gr Rahho, évêque de Mossoul, qui avait été enlevé le 29 février à la sortie de la messe, provoque l’émotion de l”ensemble du monde chrétien. Cette mort représente un symbole du martyre enduré par les Chaldéens, menacés depuis cinq ans par les islamistes, qui reprochent à la très ancienne communauté chrétienne de Mésopotamie d’être complice des Américains.

“Des gens sont menacés, kidnappés, tués en pleine semaine sainte !”, s’insurge l’archevêque chaldéen de Kirkouk, Luis Sako. Des actes qui poussent beaucoup à se poser chaque jour la question de l’exil.

Face aux persécutions, les responsables chrétiens irakiens estiment que 75 000 croyants ont quitté le pays pour la Syrie, la Jordanie ou l’Occident. 75 000 autres auraient fui vers le nord de l’Irak, au Kurdistan irakien, où la liberté religieuse est plus grande. Mais arrivés nombreux avec, pour seul bien, les habits qu’ils portaient sur eux au moment de leur fuite, leur intégration pourrait se révéler difficile.

Depuis le début de l’invasion américaine en 2003, au moins 2 millions d’Irakiens ont fui le pays et on estime qu’il reste aujourd’hui moins de 400 000 chrétiens en Irak. Ils étaient au nombre de 636 000 environ en 2005 et encore un million en 1980, car, paradoxe de l’histoire, Saddãm Hussein leur ménageait une relative tranquillité.

Depuis six mois, la multiplication des initiatives a permis d’amorcer un début de prise de conscience des chrétiens de France en faveur de leurs frères d’Orient. Au nom du mouvement Pax Christi, l’évêque de Troyes, M^gr Marc Stenger, qui s’était rendu en Irak en février, a à son retour plaidé pour accueil en Europe des croyants irakiens qui se sont enfuis de leur pays.

Un projet formulé par le ministre des Affaires étrangères Bernard Kouchner en décembre 2007. ”Nous allons, j’espère, en accueillir près de 500 dans les semaines qui viennent et on verra après”, a-t-il déclaré le 19 mars 2008, lors d’un entretien sur RMC et BFM-TVM, en ajoutant que “nous ne refuserons pas d’accueillir des musulmans” mais “le problème, c’est que personne n’accueillait les chrétiens”.

Accueilli avec soulagement par la communauté chaldéenne de France, forte de 15 000 membres environ, vivant majoritairement en région parisienne, cette annonce a suscité quelques réserves. Pierre Henry, directeur de France Terre d’Asile, avait accusé, mardi 18 mars, dans un entretien à l’AFP, le gouvernement de vouloir faire une “opération de communication” en faisant venir ces chaldéens irakiens aux alentours du début de la présidence française de l’Union européenne, qui commence le 1^er juillet 2008.

It is just a sign of the mess we are in ..

Here is a video of that guy, and here is the transcript.

Jawhar: I am a dealer – a weapons dealer.
Interviewer: You work as a weapons dealer?

Jawhar: People come to ‘Ein Al-Hilweh to buy weapons, and others come to sell weapons.
Interviewer: From Lebanon or abroad?
Jawhar: They come from Lebanon. What do you expect, people from Antioch?
Interviewer: Do they come from Palestinian refugee camps?

Jawhar: No, from here. From Sidon and Beirut. They are Lebanese. Most of the people who buy weapons are Lebanese, not Palestinians.
Interviewer: Who supplies the weapons you sell?
Jawhar: The refugee camp is full of weapons. Weapons dealers come to the camp all the time. They come with licenses. The state helps them get the weapons in.

Fight Fanatism with Nationalism .. i find it reasonable.
But Fighting Fanatism with more Fanatism .. it will only cause more problems and more hatred and therefore pave the way for more fanatism …

I dont see the point of naming the Prophet such names, i dont see any positive outcome of such an action.

A candidate campaigning for the Graz city council in Austria says it is time that Islam was “thrown back … behind the Mediterranean,” and alleges Muhammad wrote the Koran in “epileptic fits.”

Election campaigns, it would seem, are uncomfortable times for immigrants to be in Europe. First, it was Ronald Koch, the conservative politician in the German state of Hesse who turned up the rhetoric and began railing against “criminal young foreigners” in his country. Now, an Austrian politician has followed suit.

What the hell is wrong with those people ???

She named a teddy bear Mohammad by mistake and now they wanna execute her …
Ma kharjoun education hal 3alam .. kharjoun da3ess bil sermeye !

NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov. 30 — Hundreds of demonstrators in Khartoum, Sudan’s capital, poured into the streets on Friday demanding the execution of a British teacher who was convicted of insulting Islam because her class of 7-year-olds named a teddy bear Muhammad.

The protesters, some carrying swords, screamed, “Shame, shame on the U.K.!” and, “Kill her, kill her by firing squad.”

They were calling for the death of Gillian Gibbons, the teacher who was sentenced Thursday to 15 days in jail. Under Sudanese law, she could have spent six months behind bars and received 40 lashes. { …}

Before it’s too late, the representatives of the 14^th of March coalition should reconsider any step towards amending the constitution and electing General Michel Suleiman.

Such a move would not only be a major setback to all of March 14’s endeavors in the past two years, it will be a blow to each and every one of us who went down to Martyrs’ Square on March 14, 2005.

The word is out and it’s spreading rapidly. Yesterday’s hawks are now acting like wet defeated chickens unless this is a bluff – in which case we would definitely be reassured. But what happened exactly? Has the futile Christian paranoia exerted by the Hizbullah- Theofascist ally, General Michel Aoun, finally made its case? Are we abandoning ourselves to the overt Islamic threat in Lebanon and their madman ally? But first, who is Michel Suleiman and what do we know about him?

General Suleiman was appointed by the Syrians as commander of the Lebanese Army in 1998. This fact for sure is not assuring.General Suleiman was at the head of the army when – to name a few events –: a) we were banned from demonstrating; b) we were summoned by the Lebanese Army secret services because of our political opinion; c) we were tortured by the Lebanese Army to “confess” whatever they wanted us to confess; d) mass arrests occurred on August 7, 2001 and demonstrations were violently and publicly crushed in front of the Palace of Justice two days later; e) Ramzi Irani disappeared and was found dead in the trunk of  his car (I will leave a question mark on that one). These facts are also not reassuring.

Now to give Suleiman some credits, he did not stand in the way of the demonstrations that were banned by Omar Efendi Karame’s government between the night of February 27 and 28, 2005. (Just for us not to forget, the decision to ban them was issued by both Sleiman Franjieh and Elias el Murr). In other words, he didn’t stand in the way of the emancipation of the – now fainting or six feet under – Cedar Revolution.

He also commanded the harsh battle – led by our brave soldiers – against Fath el Islam, thus crossing Hassan Nasrallah’s “Red Line”. This also gives him an extra credit. However, I resorted to conspiracy theory questions back then which are still unanswered. He also filled in the security vacuum after his predecessor finally found his place in “the garbage of history”. But why did he do that? Was it national duty or personal ambitions?

There are two undeniable facts that are uncomforting. The first is that General Suleiman denied all Syrian connection to Fath el Islam, he therefore sought to exonerate them from this crime. The second fact is that he is connected to the Syrian regime more than we know. Hi brother in law, Gebran Kuriyyeh was the official spokesman of Hafez Assad. He also recently paid a visit to his Syrian friends. Needless to mention is the Syrian-era reformed Lebanese Army creed that depicts the incestuous relations between the two countries…

Reassuring? No, I don’t think so. You don’t think so. We -14^th of March supporters – all don’t think so. So what is happening at the head of our pyramid? Why are the leaders excelling in disappointing us after praising our patience and promising us to reap the ripe fruits of our long march? Mind you, it’s not just a 2 year battle we’re talking about. It’s a struggle that has been going on for a century to say the least…Why? It’s all because of us, Lebanese Christians.

Just when the Arab and Lebanese Sunni community subscribed to the “Lebanon First” objective, just when the international community joined hands to secure our independence, we had to blow it. How? Let’s call this phenomenon the Orange General.

The Orange General and his presidential obsession Part Deux (Part One was in 1988) will always be remembered as the second blow to Lebanon’s independence. The first blow was when his misadventures paved the Syrians into the last free stronghold in Lebanon in 1989. Back then, the Syrians came in through the main gate. The Orange General is now allowing them back in through the window. His alliance with the Safavid’s Qizilbash division in Lebanon – which certainly goes against the laws of nature – and his supernatural arrogance has put the Christian community in an undesirable situation. 

The bearer of the Christians’ idiocies and sins, none other than the Patriarch Sfeir, was cornered recently in naming a president. Aoun’s escalating threats and scare tactics concerning the Christians’ future and the “Sunni takeover of the republic” prompted our Patriarch to push for Suleiman’s candidacy.  I hope this candidacy is bubbling in the media just like Michel Edde’s candidacy was. Otherwise, I hope there’s something good about Suleiman that we do not know about… 

This article was proposed by a friend - Cedrus Tutella and outlines his vision of the HA phenomenom in Lebanon…

HEZBALLAH: The COUNTER-SOCIETY

(Moujtama3 moudad)

It’s all in the name

Hezb-Allah. Two crucial components, intrinsic to the name. Hezb, as in “party,” as opposed to a militia, or an army, such as, say, Jaishallah. It was thus engineered from the start to be a movement with massive popular support, from which it would derive national and regional credibility and legitimacy. The Allah part is even more obvious. Guidance and orders are divine, and undivided obedience is a given. Hezballah, from a religious point of view, means “those who have chosen the path of Allah – unlike the rest…”

It’s in the flag too

A flag is the summation and summary of what one stands for. Hezballah’s mother entity, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, (Pasdaran) simply drew another version of its own for its successfully exported offspring. Let’s point out the analogies:

The Iranian sponsored Popular Resistance Councils. (PRC) But that’s another story. Or is it?

Threat to the nation

By imposing his paramilitary and fascist socio-religious model on an ever-expanding territorial basis, Hezballah constitutes a clear and present danger to our very existence. The threat is to the very inception of Lebanon, an entity in total antagonism with Hezballah’s religious tenets. Hezballah’s participants to politics are not religious men, as these are “above” the nation and its institutions, which they openly reject and deny, even ban from “their zones.” This is the concept of Dar al-Harb and Dar al-Islam, whereby Dar al-Islam is their world, and Dar al-Harb is… the rest, upon which they wage war until it is subdued and thus part of Dar-al Islam. Hezballah has already accomplished this agenda in Lebanon. It already controls its own Dar and is now moving in on the rest of us, into our Dar…

Hostile take-over

Since its inception, Hezballah, awash with unlimited Iranian cash and military support, capitalized on a Shia population which was extremely primed, due to its neglected and deprived situation, to fall for the flowing incentive, willingly or otherwise. All opposition was swiftly eliminated. Rival Shia party Amal soon reached the state of shadow ally. When the civil war ended, the occupying Syrian forces coerced all political entities in Lebanon to recognize Hezballah’s “special” status, and allow it to maintain its arsenal. Hezballah’s strength reached unprecedented heights under Lahoud’s shameful presidency, whereby the Iran’s militia forcibly replaced the nation and its institutions, applying its own rule of law.

Chosen path: war as an end, not a means to an end

No party should have an exclusive right to wage an independence war, or even to selectively fight one invader and hook its lifeline to another. But let’s assume this is all beyond us now. And Now is May 2000. The Israeli invader is out, and South Lebanon is free. The UN is handling remnants of territorial disputes and controversies. What is, then, the expected course of action for the valiant militia post-victory? Turn South Lebanon into heaven on earth, of course, an aim much facilitated by geography, and towards which most southerners were longing. Or NOT? Hezballah turned South Lebanon into one giant bunker, sinking billions of dollars in the process, and… postponed heaven until after death, which is where it belongs, they insist on “thinking,” and pursue their unending war agenda. The conclusion is clear.

Conclusion. A foreign mercenary force, politico-military amateurism, a hostage nation

On July 12, 2006, Hezballah, acting on obvious Iranian pressure, and betraying all promises of restrain made to both the government and the nation, launches a cross-border raid against Israel. We all know the results of this mercenary action. Despite the undisputed tactical success against the IDF, one is forced to recognize two things. The first is that the IDF never really intended to invade. If it did, it would have never bombed every single bridge and road crossing, all necessary communication routes for its entirely mechanized army. Hezballah, thanks to its drug smuggling network into the IDF, was quite aware that no mobilization orders were issued, for neither logistics nor reservists. No military intelligence activities were carried out either. Hence the words of being both surprised (by the intensive air raids) and ready (for the land invasion – it’s not coming!) The second essential aspect is that, in the Israeli strategic point of view, its Spoiling Attack was a total success, indeed a much better scenarios than victory against Iran’s militia. It diverted Hezballah’s total power against a much competitive neighbor and host nation which, once again, is a hostage nation. Hostage to a fascist counter-society with an alien and hostile agenda. For said counter-society, this is business as usual. They are not expecting any miracles this side of death. Hezballah smartly promised them something it doesn’t have to deliver. It comes after death.

Ali al-Ahmed, director of the Washington-based Institute for Gulf Affairs, said: “The Saudi education system has over 5m children using these books. If only one in 1,000 take these teachings to heart and seek to act on them violently, there will be 5,000 terrorists.”

Full Article here.

I felt obliged to translate the documents Othello posted previously, just to expose The Islamization Hezbollah is after and how ignorant and mis-oriented are the Christians allying themselves to such a party.

The title of the communique is : Suspicious Researches and is written by Hezbollah’s Student Recruiting section. ( specifically here the Lebanese University students).

It is no more a secret to anyone, that at the time our nation ( Islamic nation) has reached almost its peak in terms of understanding the different aspects and visions of Islam, some delinquant and arrogant forces from all sects and directions are trying to preserve its positions by keeping away the process of evolution and change that our people is enduring and turning their positions and fields of action to closed islands.

And to honest, one must say that the Lebanese University, the so-called University of the weakened ones, even if those beloning to the Political Maronistism group are strangling it and are promoting the Western culture and feeding it to our society and therefore keeping this university a closed island by stopping the process of change that we are supporting.

Even though our students are playing a crucial role in getting back to the “authentic” thinking and walking on the same path as our nation ( islamic), those who are in charge are not coping with that change and putting a stop it and here remains the biggest problem.

It is not normal that while our nation (islamic) is achieving one of its amazing victory over Israel and The Imperialists, some factions of the university are showing it as a loss and promoting a western thinking while clearly shows their alliance to the West culturally & politically. While this is considered a non-appreciation of the nation’s ( islamic) achievements, it is also considered a backstabbing.

Additionally, we have the right to question the researches done by some experts in the socio-political fields on Islam and Muslims in some highly-inhabited popular regions, or initiate sectarian tensions in some villages, or dig into the history of families and sects and emphasis on the fights and divisions and wars that those families or sects witnessed. What is the purpose behind such a research ?

And why dont those researches and studies aim at showing the positives sides of our community and help unite and strenghen our community against the Western imperialism and influence on our society.

Finally we would like to emphasis on the following points:

First: It is time or maybe its too late for the intellectuals to do a necessary review on their role and their mission, which does not mean unifying the political & religious belongings, Even if we are working for that purpose, since everyone has his freedom of speech and belief, but it is forbidden to betray the nation ( islamic) and backstabb it.

Second : We hope that the researches direct their studies in a positive way, and we warn them from continuing in their suspicious researches that are meant to serve the West, and reserve our right to boycott such studies that threaten the security of our Islamic nation and its institutions and positions.

Third: We warn all those with bad intentions, or anyone who wants to weaken the Islamists students or teachers, and we reserve every right to protect them and defend them.

Before i start posting, i urge all readers to reply in a constructive and educated and respectful way or else your reply will be deleted since this is a sensitive issue with no harm intended to Muslims or Islam in itself.

Can someone please explain what this “2irda3″ Fatwa all about ?

This is the 3rd article i read concerning this Fatwa and its impacts on the Muslim society. Even explaining it makes me sick to be honest. Thank God this Sheikh who came up with it in Egypt was isolated and banned from the Jami3 el Azhar, but it does raise several questions as for how such sheikhs are allowed to issue fatwas in the first place.

Here is another “sickening” story of how a man wants his wife to breastfeed his friend as per the Fatwa so that they spend a holy ramadan together.

Here is some more info on the Fatwa :

The breastfeeding fatwa is a fatwa (a religious ruling within Islam) issued by a lecturer of Cairo’s Al-Azhar University that suggested that male and female colleagues could use symbolic breastfeeding to get around a religious ban on being alone together.

The fatwa said that if a woman fed a male colleague “directly from her breast” at least five times they would establish a family bond and thus be allowed to be alone together at work.

“Breast feeding an adult puts an end to the problem of the private meeting, and does not ban marriage,” he ruled. “A woman at work can take off the veil or reveal her hair in front of someone whom she breastfed.”

The issuer had drawn on Islamic traditions that forbid sexual relations between a man and a woman who has breastfed him to suggest that symbolic breastfeeding could be a way around strict segregation of men and women. Wetnursing, the practice of one woman breastfeeding another’s baby, was widespread in Arab culture, and the child refers to the woman as his “milk mother”, thereby creating a social relationship that would preclude later marriage. This relationship makes the two people mahram (unmarriageable) to each other. See also Islamic marital jurisprudence.

Put aside all the evil characters and vilains you’ve seen on TV or read about, from Gargamel to the Joker, Dr. Doom, Jafar, Shredder etc etc …

Hezbollah has a new character for all the children: “Sharon el Chereer”

Even though this post is under the humor section, it is real, and this character is real, it was invented by HA’s Mehdi scouts and put as the main evil character in a book for children. The small booklet is one of many published by those scouts.

The booklet, like all children books ( ma hek ?), starts with a dedication to all the martyrs who fell fighting Israel and raises awareness among the kids on the danger Israel represents ( we are talkign 6 to 10 year old here).

I am sure most of you are interested in the main plot of that book ..
I will give you a brief summary since i didnt get the book yet, hopefully within the next few days.

It is about a Kingdom called “Heaven” ( symbolizing Palestine), that was inhabited by its own people who were living peacefully and calmly until an evil king by the name of Sharon came and managed to control the Kingdom by persecuting the people and torturing and assasinating them. This bad bad king could not hear any sounds except those of the wounded and only liked the colour red, colour of blood.
Then the vilain king asked all pregnant women to drink from some liquid that will turn their kids into dwarfs, however those children were saved by a nearby king ( referencing hezbollah) etc …

( Here is the summary in arabic)
تدور القصة في الكتيب حول مملكة صغيرة اسمها “جنة” [ترمز إلى "فلسطين"] التي كان أبناؤها يعيشون بسعادة حتى تسنم الحكم ملك شرير اسمه شارون [بالرمز، أريئيل شارون]. وقد نجح الملك شارون في السيطرة على المملكة بواسطة الدسائس، القتل وتعذيب شعبه. ويصور الكتيب شارون على أنه لم يكن قادرا على سماع أي صوت سوى أنات الجرحى وعذابات الذين يعانون، ولم يكن يحب، كما جاء في الكتيب، سوى اللون الأحمر للدم. وقد أمر شارون جميع النساء الحوامل بأن يشربن سائلا يؤدي بهن إلى إنجاب أولاد أقزام. وقد تم إنقاذ المملكة بأيدي الأولاد (الرمز لأولاد “فلسطين”) الذين قرروا الانتقام من شارون الشرير وحصلوا على مساعدة من ملك جيد في مملكة قريبة (بالرمز إلى “حزب الله”). في نهاية المطاف، رجم الأولاد شارون وزوجته بالحجارة. وقد حكم الملك الطيب على الملك شارون وحاشيته بالسجن المؤبد. أما سكان مملكة “جنة” فقد عادوا ليعيشوا حياة هانئة وسعيدة.

Enjoy.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الحمد لله ناصر المستضعفين و قاهر الطواغيت القائل في محكم تنزيله : }ِإِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ}[الحجرات:10]

و الصلاة و السلام على لمبعوث رحمة للعالمين الذي أرشدنا بقوله (المسلمون تتكافأ دماؤهم و يسعى بذمتهم ادناهم و هم يد على من سواهم)، و على آله و صحبه الغر الميامين ثم أما بعد :

فإن المتابع لما يتعرض له أهلنا في المخيمات الفلسطينية في لبنان .. و منذ امدٍ بعيد ليتفطــّر كبده ألماً و حزناً و حسرةً على حال هذا الشعب الصابر و الصامد؛ فمنذ الأيام الأولى هُجّروا إلى مخيمات تفتقر إلى أبسط سبل الحياة و أُحيطُوا بالسواتر الترابية و الأسلاكِ الشائكة في سجنٍ كبير و كأنهم وحوشٌ مفترسة، ومنعوا من العبور خارجه إلا عبر سيطرات الإذلال و الإهانة لهذا الشعب المجاهد.

و مارسوا ضدهم كل ما انتجته عقولهم العفنة و من اهمها حملة التجاهل منقطعة النظير، فيعد ان كان الفلسطينيون هم الأعلى تعلماً و الأقل أمية بين الشعوب العربية قاطبة .. صاروا في ذيل القائمة لأسبابٍ كثيرةٍ أهمها:
أولاً: منعهم من أبسط الوظائف بكافة انواعها و أشكالها.

ثانياً: الإجراءات التعسفية ضد اي نوع من أنواع التجارة صاحبها فلسطيني، مما جعل الإقبال على التعلم و التعليم ينخفض جداً، فلا وظائف و لا تجارة مرجوّة و ليس أمامهم إلا المهن الوضيعة التي يأنفُ الصليبيون منها … كعبيدٍ عند أصحاب رؤوس أموال النصارى كالمُرّ و غيره .. و من عجائب الدنيا أن فلسطينيي لبنان ممنوعون من التملك و لو لمقبرةٍ يُدفنون فيها بعد موتهم.

و نظراً للطبيعة السنة و الجهادية لهذا الشعب صار فلسطينيو لبنان عقدة كل الطوائف في هذا البلد و لأن وجودهم في نظرهم يخل بالتركيبة الديمغرافية لهذا البلد، و يجعل الكفة تميل لصالح سنة لبنان.

لذا .. شُنـّت عليهم حربٌ شعواء فبدأت “أمل” الشيعية و لم يُقصـّر الصليب فأوغلوا في دماء الأبرياء مستفيدين من الضعف السني الظاهر مقابل تفـوّق شيعي صليبي في القوة المادية و العسكرية، ثم عاد اليوم زحفٌ صليبي جديد تحت ذريعةٍ مصطنعة “حرب الإرهاب”، و يعنون حركة فتح الاسلام.

فكانت البداية من مدينة العلماء و المجاهدين “طرابلس الشام” حيث مخيم “نهر البارد” و استرسلت التصريحات الصليبية النارية على شاشات التلفاز و بلا استحياء من عميل اليهود الخائن قائد “القوات اللبنانية” و من حليف المجوس الصليبي الحاقد الطامع إلى ملك لبنان “ميشيل عون” … كلهم يحرّض على إبادة مخيم “عين[1] البارد”.

كـُفّ عن أهلنا كلابك و أخمد نيران مدافعك و إلا فقد اعذر من أنذر … فلن يبقى بعد اليوم لصليبيّ في لبنان مأمن، و كمـا تضربون سـتـُضربُون

فأطفالنا و نسائنا ليسوا أقل حرمة ً من أطفالكم و نسائكم … و إن لم تنتهوا فسنخلع قلوبكم بالمفخخات، ونحاصر أماكنكم بالعبـوّات و نستهدف كل انواع تجارتكم بدءاً من السياحة و انتهاء بسواها من وسائل الرزق العفن ما دمتم أعلنتموها حرباً صليبية ً جديدة.

فيـا مرحباً بالنزال و لا يغرنكم مساندة العرب المرتدين لكم، أو غضّ طرفنا السالف عنكم .. إننا نحذركم و للمرة الأخيرة و لن يكون بعدها إلا بحور الدم.

و الذين نريــده:
أن تأمروا قائد الجيش اللبناني النصراني بسحب أزلامه من حول المخيمات الفلسطينية عموماً و مخيم “نهر البارد” خصوصاً، و الكف عن قصفه و رفع جميع السيطرات و الحواجز لأجله.

و عودوا لرشدكم لأنكم معشر الصليب في وسطٍ سني سيغرقكم لو بقيتم على ممشاكم هذا و لم تقبلوا نصحنا … و أما أهلنا في المخيمات عموماً و “نهر البارد” خصوصاً فنقول لهم:

و الله لن نخذلكم و سترون من أهل السنة عموماً و في لبنان و طرابلس خصوصاً ما تقرّ له عيونكم.
و الله أكبـر .. و العزة للإسلام

I was discussing that with a friend and to be honest , i dont buy it ..
172 arrest without a single shot .. i remember more drama when arresting a dozen or even less …
Weapons hidden in the desert ??

It just doesnt add up .

Riyadh - Police in Saudi Arabia arrested 172 suspected militants linked to seven terrorist cells including Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaeda terrorist network in a series of raids in different cities, a spokesman for the Saudi Interior Ministry said Friday.

The suspects included several Saudi nationals and people of Yemeni and African origin, mainly Nigerian. Observers in Saudi Arabia said the raids had been staged over several months.

They had been planning terrorist attacks on oil facilities and refineries and military bases using aircraft, spokesman Mansur al- Turki said, adding that several suspects had been trained as pilots.

The largest cell had 61 members, and had been planning to assassinate officials in Mecca, according to the Saudi Press Agency. Nine members had planned to free their comrades from a prison in Jeddah.

Their leader had apparently selected them while they were going around the Kaaba in Mecca, as Muslim pilgrims do during Hajj.

The leader of the cell had operated several sports’ clubs where the recruits were being trained, the source added.
Other cells had been planning to assassinate public figures and officials and attack military bases.

Five of the 172 suspects were reportedly involved in a terrorist attack last year. On February 24, 2006, Saudi security forces foiled an attempted suicide attack on an oil processing facility in eastern Saudi Arabia.

A weapons cache including several weapon and more than 20 million Saudi riyals (around 5.3 million dollars) had been seized, the spokesman added said, adding, ‘…al-Qaeda was still trying to revive its activities.’

Islamist militants linked to the al-Qaeda network have staged a series of attacks in Saudi Arabia in recent years, targeting mainly foreigners and security personnel.

Sadly, mainstream Muslim teaching accepts and promotes violenc.

Wall Street Journal - BY TAWFIK HAMID
Tuesday, April 3, 2007 12:01 a.m. EDT
Not many years ago the brilliant Orientalist, Bernard Lewis, published a short history of the Islamic world’s decline, entitled “What Went Wrong?” Astonishingly, there was, among many Western “progressives,” a vocal dislike for the title. It is a false premise, these critics protested. They ignored Mr. Lewis’s implicit statement that things have been, or could be, right.
But indeed, there is much that is clearly wrong with the Islamic world. Women are stoned to death and undergo clitorectomies. Gays hang from the gallows under the approving eyes of the proponents of Shariah, the legal code of Islam. Sunni and Shia massacre each other daily in Iraq. Palestinian mothers teach 3-year-old boys and girls the ideal of martyrdom. One would expect the orthodox Islamic establishment to evade or dismiss these complaints, but less happily, the non-Muslim priests of enlightenment in the West have come, actively and passively, to the Islamists’ defense.

I waited few days to poast this video, hoping the hot heads will cool down. I agree with all of you what Nasrallah and Aoun did is wrong and they should be punished. Yet we tend to forget the other side of the picture. The other side is not innocent either. Check this short video of Future supporters how they insult religion and politicans.

Is this how we will build Lebanon?
 

The extract below was inspired from the LF forum by a post from Ritchy. It originates in Al Safir Newspaper dated February 16th 1985.

Until further notice, this is the manifesto according to which the Party of God exists and this is a list of their goals and ambitions for Lebanon. Hardly what anyone would call a Patriotic Lebanese party….

Read for yourselves and see.

For more than six years, this Shiite Islamic group has been preparing for such a confrontation with Israel.
It was greatly helped by Iran in terms of weapons, missiles of all ranges and ammunition whereas Syria, which controlled the country for five of the six years, helped logistically and by turning a blind eye as to weapons movements.

But how are they organized, what makes them so efficient…to start of, it is important to stress that they do not operate as a regular army does. Their fighting is mostly Guerilla style fighting… or rather a “modernized” Guerilla style.

Firstly there are four levels of personnel in the militia, two fighting and two reserves:

1. The Elite fighters, these are trained veterans with years of exposure and multiple training tours in both Iran and Syria. There are rumors that some of these participated in the latest Iraki fights under Moktada el Sader’s command.
2. The “normal” sodiers: these are regular fighters with little or no fighting experience. They are usually in charge of logistic operations and other day to day activities and also participate in combats.
3. Reserve level one, are those that have finished their military training with the militia after their National Military Service at most three years ago. These are considered as still “fresh” in the sense that the training required to get them back into fighting level is minimal. Strictly logistics and information gathering. Very rarely put in combat situations.
4. Reserve level two, are those who have finished their military service for more than three years.
   It is important to note that both reserve levels undergo regular “refresh” training sessions for periods of one to three months.

Set aside from the four levels above is the suicide squad. Very little is known about the members in this squad since it is kept very hush hush. Since they have little training to do (for obvious reasons) they spend their time in prayers and contemplation.
Currently active in the war are the first three levels of fighters.

How do they operate?

Hezbollah have perfected the tactic of hit and run which makes it very hard for the Israelis, using traditional warfare techniques, to target them. They work in groups of five to six “elements” and each group is totally independent from the next group. Each has a general set of directives and most make their “plan d’action” as they go. This way, they are able to operate in the event of total loss of communication with the commanding base and there is no risk of anyone eavesdropping on conversations. And should anyone fall prisoner in the hands of the Israelis, he can only give out the plans of his group.

Each group travels using Cross bikes…this gives them flexibility as well as manageability on the terrain. Armed with light assault rifles and submachine guns and state of the art Chinese anti tank grenade propellers supplied by Iran, they are able to inflict severe damage to the opponent whilst sustaining minimal damage.

An example of how they operate can be given by the way they fire missiles, three bikes are used to perform the action:

1. One person stays at a distance providing surveillance and looking out for apache helicopters or spy planes
2. One group, on a bike, set up the launcher platform, without the missile. Total time: 5 seconds and they drive off.
3. One group delivers the missile and leaves. Total time 3 seconds.
4. One group sets the missile, fires it and leaves. Total time 10 to 20 seconds.
5. The first group comes back to collect the launch pad, if the observer informs them that all is clear, and replaces it in a subterranean hideout, to be used in the next operation.

All the groups leave in totally different directions.

The bikes are also used to lure the tanks into ambushes set up for them by fighters hiding in tunnels. The same tunnels are used to move between villages undetected and be able to surprise the enemy which relies on aerial images of the fight zone.

This fighting technique has caused great damage to the Israelis in their advance in South Lebanon.

It was observed that the only way the Israelis can counter it is by applying the charred land approach whereby any incursion should be preceded by heavy bombardment of the region by fighter planes, followed by a fine combing using heavy machine guns and helicopters before the infantry troops finally walk in.

Since the guerilla fighters hide between civilians, and operate from within inhabited or industrial areas, they greatly benefit from the coverage and lure IAF planes into bombarding civilians and factories which allows the Hezb to use the media coverage to its benefit.

Israel has had to resort to expelling all the inhabitants of the region out of the area and even beyond the traditional headquarters of Hezbollah namely southern suburbs of Beirut so as to minimize civilian causalities as well as any supportive action the Party of God can benefit from.

Hezbollah didn’t only take 2 Israeli soldiers hostages, but he took Lebanon hostage and gave it to its masters (Iran & Syria) as a bargaining chip. Do we Lebanese have a saying in all this? Did Hassan Nasrallah ask us, the Lebanese, if we agreed on such operation? He doesn’t care. He thinks he is untouchable and any decision he makes, we the Lebanese, must obey it. After all he is a Muslim religious leader and Allah path is the right one. He threatened every single Lebanese, right after kidnapping the Israeli soldiers, he asked all Lebanese to stand by his resistance or else. Or else, what? You will pull your Imam Ali sward and cut our heads?

Government: “The act or process of governing, especially the control and administration of public policy in a political unit.”

Why our “so called” politicians are silent? Until when they will keep playing this old record “the decision should be in the hands of the government”. Government!!!! Are you kidding us? This government been engaged in a national dialogue for almost a year and came out empty. This government has 2 Hezbollah ministers whom they didn’t inform this “government” about their military operation in the South against Israel.

This government still labels Hezbollah a resistance. How can they label it a resistance while it doesn’t even report to them? How they can label it a resistance while it calls itself “The Islamic Resistance”? Does this government understand that such resistance doesn’t believe in a country called Lebanon?

Sovereignty: “Supremacy of authority or rule as exercised by a sovereign or sovereign state.”

This, so called government, has not authority or rule over an Islamic resistance in Lebanon. Yet this resistance is represented in government and in parliament. How a country can be sovereign if it has on its soil a military force that doesn’t take order from the government or the national army? How can Lebanon be sovereign if Hezbollah keeps its arms and decides on its own when to drag our country to war?

Democracy: “Government by the people exercised either directly or through elected representatives.”

Hezbollah, like any other Islamic group, joins the political democratic process and once they get what they want, they are the first to open fire on democracy. When they join the political process, we hear and read western media, analysts and politicians, (who lives thousands miles away and only know about these groups through books or the media) calling it a victory. They know nothing about how these organizations work. Do a small research and read what these westerners wrote when Hezbollah was engaged in the “democratic” elections in Lebanon. I was reading at that time and laughing. Now I understand how Al Qaeda, Hezbollah and other terrorist organization can beat the West. They play your game and at the end they shoot you and shoot democracy in the head.

Hezbollah doesn’t believe in democracy. There is no democracy in Islam. There is no democratic election under Islamic law. There is only Islam and the Umma.

A Lebanese politician said:”Hezbollah will prevail”. Ideologically, this leader is supposed to be on the opposite side of the political spectrum of Hezbollah. But he, like others is playing it safe. But if we really look into it, we noticed, even after September 11 and even of what is going in Afghanistan, Iraq, Indonesia, India, London, Madrid… The west still doesn’t get it. The west still thinks with reason they will win over radicalism. They still do not get it. Neither money, reason, houses, infrastructure … Will change a single thing. They will take your money, they will talk to you, they will let you build their towns and infrastructure but when you blink, they will stick a dagger in your back. What is more important of all this for them is simply … Islam. Does the west know what Islam is? No it is not the new last name of Cat Stevens.
