Al-Qaeda 'declares war on Hezbollah'
PressTV ^ | 5-9-08

Posted on 05/11/2008 4:07:30 PM PDT by kingattax

Al-Qaeda has reportedly called on its operatives to go to Lebanon and defend what it called the Sunni community of the country.

The report came while some Arab media outlets described the current clashes in Lebanon as a fight between Sunni and Shia communities.

In an interviews with Sunni clerics with links to Saad Hariri's pro-government bloc, Al-Arabiya TV network described the ongoing clashes as a sectarian strife.

Sheikh Ali al-Jozo, Mufti of the Jebel region, who is well known for his harsh stance against Hezbollah told the TV network that the clashes are a battle between Lebanon's Shia and Sunni communities and called on Arab leaders to prevent "Iran's influence in the country."

The TV network reported that al-Qaeda on all of its websites urged its operatives to defend the Sunni community of Lebanon.

The reports came while in interviews with NBN and al-Manar TV stations on Thursday, a number of Sunni clerics said that the clashes are not a sectarian strife and many Sunni Muslims in Lebanon support Hezbollah.

Al-Qaeda has reportedly called on its operatives to go to Lebanon

Getting their butts kicked in Iraq, now finding they are outcast, prey on a weak country, Lebanon should just close their borders and let Syria pick up the debris.

It seems to me that the correct action by the international community on this one is...nothing.

First, Al Quaeda will need Syria’s help to infiltrate Lebanon. I doubt that Syria will help them fight Hezbollah, its ally. Second, Lebanon’s Sunni population is one of the most educated Muslim populations in the world. I doubt very much they will allow Al Qaeda in. Of course, if Hezbollah continues its aggression, who knows?

I admit I love it when two Islamofascist baddies go to war against each other. They both hate the West but they hate each even more.

I thought sending lawyers into a combat zone was a violation of the Geneva Conventions, something about them being cruel and inhumane (or in-human). ;-)
