Former Hizbullah Leader Subhi Al-Tufayli: Iran Forces Hizbullah to Participate in the Syrian War
MEMRI ^ | May 9, 2013

Posted on 05/11/2013 1:28:50 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Subhi Al-Tufayli: I know for a fact that the vast majority within Hizbullah strongly oppose [joining] the Syrian war. However, a resolute decision to participate [in the war] has been imposed upon them. Interviewer: By Iran? Subhi Al-Tufayli: Yes. Interviewer: Even Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah opposes this? Subhi Al-Tufayli: I don't want to name names, but I'm talking about the situation at hand. Everyone realizes how dangerous this is. First, of all, this is internal strife among Muslims, which will be devastating to all. This is the beginning of things to come. I say to the Shiites, to Hizbullah, and to the non-Shiites as well: We are heading towards a horrific war, which will destroy everything. The fatalities will be numbered by the millions. Interviewer: Fatalities on which side? Subhi Al-Tufayli: Muslim fatalities. Hizbullah's joining the Aflaqi Ba'thists in the killing of the Syrian people invites Muslims from all over the world to come to Syria.

Not That There's Anything Wrong With That!

There’s nothing wrong with that at all...

Actually, there is. This thing could spin out of control into a regional war — or worse.

I blame the incompetent (and “Muslim-Brotherhood-uber-alles”) foreign policy under This Administration, with a big heaping of blame reserved for Hillary Clinton and her pro-Salafist State Department goons.

It’s not in control *now* — but it’s a good place to accumulate piles of muzzie carcasses after they feed themselves to each other’s guns. Zero and Co merely dragged their feet in supporting the non-jihadist defectors from the dictator’s army.

Looks like the herd is going to cull itself.

Pipes says to aid whichever side is losing so as to prevent either side from winning, and to prolong the conflict.

the West should prevent either side in the civil war from emerging victorious by "helping whichever side is losing, so as to prolong their conflict."

It’s going to require a fine balancing act to supply everyone with just enough weapons so they can all shoot themselves in the foot.

That’s why Russian and Iranian participation is so useful — no need to switch sides, or for matter, to spend much at all. We need only keep the humanitarian aid going, and surreptitiously snuff imam/mullah activity in the refugee camps, such that the noncombatants only have eyes for us.
