Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Israeli jets reportedly strike Hizballah targets near Lebanon-Syria border

Feb 24, 2014 4:21 pm By Robert Spencer

IsraelijetMuch as Barack Obama and John Kerry try to compel Israel to negotiate itself out of existence, the Israelis are not willing to go gently into the night. This is a heartening sign that their resolve to resist the jihad is undiminished. This is encouraging for all free people, as they may be the free world’s last line of defense against Iran’s nuclear program. “Israeli jets reportedly strike targets near Lebanon-Syria border,” by Ilan Ben Zion for the Times of Israel, February 24:

Lebanese media reported Israeli air raids on targets in the Bekaa Valley, a Hezbollah stronghold bordering Syria on Monday night.

Planes hit targets in the Baalbek region near the town of Nabi Chit, Lebanese and Arab media said.

The area on the border with Syria, is known as a stronghold the the Shiite terror group Hezbollah.

A correspondent for the Lebanese state news agency in Baalbek reported intensive Israeli flights “at very low altitude” over the mountains.

The Lebanese Daily Star quoted a security source saying the Israeli military struck a Hezbollah position near Nabi Chit.

Eyewitnesses told Al Arabiya that Israeli planes hit near the towns of Janta, Brital and Nabi Chit in two separate strikes.

There were no initial reports of casualties or damage.

There was no independent confirmation of the reports. The IDF did not respond to the reports.

Airstrikes on Syrian arms shipments to its ally Hezbollah have been attributed to Israel in the past few years. Israeli authorities have never claimed responsibility for attacks in Syrian territory.

    Israel can find partners like Russia and China through technological trade. They do not have to depend on US to defend themselves. Maybe that is necessary for us to wake up to Islam after losing Israel as a friend. I can’t believe we have an administration totally against Israel while it is for the Muslim Brotherhood.

    And we don’t have manifestations in front of WH in support of Israel.

    What a strange change of events in the history of the world.

      I understand your overall point, Sam, about Israel not being able to count on America under an Obama Administration, but relying upon “partners” like Russia and China is no kind of option either for Israel (except for very short-term tactical considerations) since neither of these politites have the best interests of Western Civilization as one of their goals. Indeed, both oppose the best which the West has created and Israel right now is in the forefront of defending this “best” even though Obama and his ilk will remain forever clueless of this.

        I respect Putin a lot more than out wannabee caliph in chief residing in the presidential palace. BTW, has anyone realized that US citizens are no longer allowed to visit the W.H. anymore? It’s been closed to visitors.

          They may see the Muslim cabinet and wonder what is going on. The US citizen for the most part is clueless.

      because obama is a muslim and a planted jihadist who is the enemy of us all! We have a congress and senate that are equally treasonist for allowing this devil to destroy our country.

      I agree with Wellington, Sam—Russia and China are not apt to deeply support Israel as the American people have.

      That anyone is even considering that Israel turn to such unfree nations shows the damage that the Obama administration has wrecked. Can’t wait until they’re out of office.

    Seriously Dumb move.

    Hizbollah is supporting Assad govt against sunni – wahabbi jihadists.

    How does overthrow of Assad and replacing them with far more vicious anti-west , anti-christian al-qaeda , al-nushra regimes help security of Israel ?

    And this only helps obama govt policy of support to MB gangs from taking over these lands and eventually make it difficult to fight of even stronger adversaries.

    Israel should at best, keep out of it and lhem kill themselves up.

      I think the IAF should hobble whatever group of islam0nazis is currently winning in Syria. After all, it really doesn’t matter who wins in Syria, because the najjis kaffir always loses.

      …………………………

      Jeff, you are generally correct in that the Sunni Jihadists likely present an even greater threat than does Assad.

      But the idea that that means that Israel should as a result passively suffer attacks from Hizb’allah—a Jihad group dedicated to their outright destruction—is absurd.

    Meditation.

    Five ‘takes’ on Psalm 121 (which is one of the many Psalms that, as a teenager, I loved so much that I learned them by heart and recite them at night if I cannot sleep). Be sure to watch the last one.

    The songs of the House of Israel are so much more beautiful than the howlings that rise from the Mohammedan Mob.

    They stand in the place-between, now, as David stood before Goliath.
