No, wait, scratch that. It was actually 20 Hizballah mujahedin killed during military training in Iran. But you can see why I got confused: the "Lebanese official" says that "Hizbullah regards those killed while training in Iran as holy ones who died fulfilling their duties." And we all know that Christian Fundamentalism is just as much or more of a danger to our freedom and well being as the global Islamic jihad -- don't we?
Sacralization of Violence Alert: "'20 Hizbullah men die in Iran training,'" from the Jerusalem Post (thanks to Sr. Soph):
At least 20 Hizbullah fighters have been killed during military training in Iran, the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Watan reported Thursday evening, quoting the Director General of the Islamic Union in Lebanon, Muhammad Ali Husseini.The Lebanese official did not say exactly how the fighters were killed, but he made clear that "Hizbullah regards those killed while training in Iran as holy ones who died fulfilling their duties, and this concerns not only Shi'ites, but also Sunnis who are loyal to Hizbullah."
Sunnis and Shia, united at last...in Jew-hatred.
"The training in Iran lies at the heart of our connections with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard", said Husseini, who added that "this is known to all Lebanese people."
And while you're pondering Hizballah's sacramental view of violence and murder, consider this tidbit from modern, moderate Indonesia: Hezbollah-owned TV begins broadcasts.

Sounds like Gomer Pyle was in charge of "training..."

Iran is the hub of the Axis of Evil. The Day of Reckoning for the mullahs and their mouthpiece, Ahmadinutjob, can't come soon enough. GOD HASTEN THAT DAY.

They accidently picked up the real suicide vest instead of the training one..

"Okay, Abu, this is the explosives' trigger... and remember, you only press it when you are ready to... ---oops!"
Allah-ka-blam!!!!
Premature end of martyrdom mission.
Let's hope the 12th imam (future Mahdiwas just coming out of his well at that moment, too.

Iran's training terrorists? Whoodathotit. I thought Islamic Republics reflected the peace of Islam.
If Iran keeps this up, it will soil its reputation, and make Allah look like a bloody war mongering god.
I wonder if these dead terrorists killed by accident, will get the fab 72?

Here's my favorite line from the linked article:
'"Neutrality like that of Al Jazeera (!) is out of the question for us", (Al Manar director) Fadlallah said . . .'
Who says jihadists don't have a sense of humor?

If Hizbullah is going to start broadcasting in Indonesia, shouldn't the government in Jakarta at least verify whether they are corrupting pure Sunnis by polluting them with Shitte material?

Sunni and Shia bonded together by hatred - sounds like a match made in hell. Now all they need is a new name signifying their 'unity' as One. How about SunShit?
....ok...I added the T for effect......

20 Hizbullah men die in Iran training
And I'll bet it's the fault of the Joos.

Have you wondered what the 'Christian Right' gets dragged into this religious equivalance nonsense. It is because it is dawning on the liberal/left that they may be wrong.
If you notice the last thing that the liberal/left can admit to is being wrong about anything.
The only way they cope with it is to make things black and white. Disagree with the liberal/left and you are 'Far Right' or worse still 'Christian Right' (even though absolutes are now supposed to be replaced with relatives).
Here is another proposition rather than have 'Far Right' and 'Far Left' let's have 'Far Right' and 'Far Wrong'. Certainly on the subject of Islam this describes the existing state of affairs.

There was another video clip from some young Iranian's, who thanked presiden Jimmy Carter with " thank you for our freedom but you send us the Mullah's, sorry not the exact words.

Yep - Mossad did it, obviously!

Were they training in Basra?

May we be so bold as to ask the Iranians to train a little harder.
More live fire exercises.

I'm thinking the entrance requirements for Kaboom University have been waved in a number of cases.

That's the way they're going to portray it in the West, with the scandal at the "Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints".
