The jihad has indeed returned to Lebanon. Hariri murder update from UPI, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:
BEIRUT, Lebanon -- The suicide bomber who killed former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri is a Palestinian member of an Islamic group linked to al-Qaida. A security source, on condition of anonymity, identified the bomber as Ahmed Abu Adas, a Palestinian refugee who lived in the low-income Beirut neighborhood of Tarik Jadida. The source said the bomber's neighbors saw him leave his home a few hours before the attack that killed Hariri and eight other people.
There goes Michael Hudson's (he of the Georgetown Center for Contemporary Arab Studies) thinly-veiled putting the blame on Israel, as I heard him do on NPR yesterday. Well, he'll come up with something else, with a little help from Esposito, or James Baker, or James Bamford, or Michael Scheuer, or Pat Buchanan -- you know, i soliti ignoti.
why would we expect anything else HUGH?
very redundant dont you think?
if not there its somewhere somehow doing evil upon evil.
while trying not to fathom on the things we never hear about i often pray for those i know of not.
the western world has finally been exposed to the evil of islam and does not like what it see's,technological advances make it possible for civilized people to see what has been happening for thousands of years over their, one need only imagine a little before succumbing to vile churned of these atrocities.
stated here before and reiterated now is the fact that 4 years ago I thought the muslim move was a black/white thing but today i keep a copy of the korkran to use as a handy reference and am quite versed now and with that knowledge I will never quit fighting the insurgence of the free world by extremist' of this calibur SO HELP ME YKWY.AMEN
Palestinian Suicide Bombers go at the cheapest market rate but would still like to know who is paying a 'martyr's' pension to his relatives ?? Was it Syria or our old friend the Saudis...
"The suicide bomber...is a Palestinian member..."
WAS.
A quick note from Scotland.
osama bin ladden went on record saying he wanted to take the fight to the Israelis.He wants to justify his killing of innocents ,he recieved a fatwa from a suadi cleric saying he may kill innocent muslims if it were in the defence of islam.He now wants to attack Israel through lebbanon via, islamic jihad and hizballah this way he decievces the so called moderates becuase of all the previous fatwas givin about israel,the fatwas are irivocable so he justifies the blood of the innocent people he knowingly targetted,ie shia,mosques women and children in voting lines, the bombers eyes looked at them before he killed them in cold blood .They were as good as bin laddens eyes
please lord "LET FREEDOM REIGN" God bless America.
Harari was a marked man the day he intimated he was going to run for reelection. It might not have been the Syrians who killed him. Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah have much to lose if Syrians leave Lebanon, and might have perpetrated the assassination.
If Syrians left, Lebanon might ask for int'l assistance in removing Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah, which would give us an excuse to burn the Bekaa valley. No matter how devout or radical, Hezbollah and IJ leadership have to know their camps are vulnerable if we decide to take them out.
Regarding this story, some wag, I think Lee Smith on Slate, noted that it must really be something to get France on the same page as the US on anything, but apparently, the Syrians have managed it with this.
Palestinians love to destroy. They are born into it, are suckled by their mothers with bloodlust and supported by a bloodthirsty society to kill.
This is their international identity. In Lebanon during Arafat's hey day there -- if your neighbor was Palestinian you had a much greater chance of having your home or car blown up by your nasty Palestinian neighbors. Watch video clips of Palestinian children declare emphatically they want to kill Jews: pre-teenagers whose face are distorted and sputter with rage to the cute burbling of a four year old. They are doomed for generations by their own people ...
