Lebanon’s security chief praises jihad terror during a diplomatic counter-terrorism conference

Nov 30, 2018 8:36 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The question discussed in the article below, “Why did Lebanon’s security chief praise terrorism during a counter-terrorism speech?,” should be the question routinely asked by anyone who supports the so-called “Palestinian resistance.” The entire “resistance” is a jihad operation that fools people into believing that Israel is at fault for merely trying to exist, for daring to establish a Jewish state following the Holocaust, during which Arab Nationalism combined with Nazism in a failed attempt to destroy the Jewish people.

Lebanon’s General Security director praised terrorism during a conference that was supposed to discuss the defeat of terrorism in the Middle East and Africa. Speaking to representatives from a dozen African countries Maj.-Gen. Abbas Ibrahim reportedly praised Hezbollah’s “resistance” and distinguished its terrorism from other forms of terror.

Iran, Hizballah, Hamas, the Palestinian Authority, and Fatah all aim to obliterate Israel. Add on the historic efforts by the Muslim countries neighboring Israel to destroy it.

For too long, the Palestinian “resistance” has been portrayed as an honest “resistance” against oppression, “racism” and “apartheid” by the Israelis, when it is really no more than jihad terror against the Jewish people. Major General Ibrahim justified his praise of jihad terror during the conference that included diplomats from Tunisia, Oman, Egypt and Russia by saying that he supported “terrorism that terrorizes your enemy, and this is not only your right but your duty.”

“Why Did Lebanon’s Security Chief Praise Terrorism During a Counter-Terror Speech?,” by Seth J. Frantzman, Jerusalem Post, November 29, 2018:

Lebanon’s General Security director praised terrorism during a conference that was supposed to discuss the defeat of terrorism in the Middle East and Africa. Speaking to representatives from a dozen African countries Maj.-Gen. Abbas Ibrahim reportedly praised Hezbollah’s “resistance” and distinguished its terrorism from other forms of terror.

The two-day event was titled “Defeat of Terrorism in the Region and its Impact on Africa” and was attended by African delegates from a swath of countries affected by terrorism in the Sahel region of Africa. That includes Nigeria, Niger, Burkina Faso and the Central African Republic. Diplomats from Tunisia, Oman, Egypt and Russia also attended according to the website Arab News. Ibrahim runs Lebanon’s General Security directorate, which makes him the “eyes and ears” of Lebanon according to and gives his agency power over a variety of local and foreign threats to Lebanon.

He has praised Hezbollah’s “resistance” in the past and was appointed in 2011 with influence by Amal, a Shi’ite party. At the conference, according to multiple reports at Lebanese websites Aliwaa.com and Aljoumhouria, he distinguished between two types of terrorism.

“Terrorism that terrorizes your enemy, and this is not only your right but your duty,” Ibrahim said. “Then there is [the second kind of] terrorism that intimidates innocent people. The second kind he said was the “lowest level of moral decline and ideological decline.”

He said that Lebanon supports the “resistance,” which is a reference to Hezbollah and that “we are with our resistance and terrorism.” He claimed that even if others call that terrorism it was a source of pride….

    The security chief is right, all those with good conscience should support Palestinians using valid jihad struggle as a means of resistance against systematic ethnic cleansing of Palestinians by fascist evil Zionist State of Israel. Note:the cardinal objectives of jîhad fighting are resistance against oppression and self-defence. The only advice i am giving to palestinians is to avoid targeting Jewish civilian population because it is against Sharia Rules of engagement.

      And the advice I’m giving you poor,deluded,lost islamic soul is.. ..

      1.pray to your false muslim moon god “allah the best of deceiver’s” k3:54 and see if he will protect you from the God of Israel just as baal protected goliath from David{Didn’t that go well for goliath?}

      2 You’ll be taking the mark soon anyway{you won’t get the reference..}
      You won’t have a choice.

      3.The prophetic information that both guarantees Israel’s right to exist and the destruction of the enemies of Israel is found in that book that your moon god allah says he wrote[Koran 3:3}and confirms..it’s BAD NEWS for the enemies of Israel{i.e that’s you God-forsaken islamic countries:you just don’t get it!}

      The “mithraist” Bible.

      4 You won’t understand any of this:the contents of your toilet bowl is smarter than you will ever be..

      Ibrahim itace muhammed,

      It is indeed possible that you are exhibiting signs of “reaction formation”. Consult a non-Islamic textbook of psychology for a good evidence-based definition.

      It is indeed possible that, deep down inside, you actually love Jews and the State of Israel.

      You are also extremely jealous of the success of Jews as a group. High IQs, high standards of living, and a very prosperous State of Israel. You subconsciously compare this to failed Muslim majority countries.

      Please consider this before you dismiss it out of hand and get “triggered”.

    What rot the Jihadist love to kill women and children, love to put bombs in public areas love to kill women and children sleeping in their homes,Mohammad had no problem personally beheaded 600 Jewish farmers who surrendered to him in a single day after he promised they could leave their town in peace if they left all their worldly goods for the Moslems to steal behind .What part of history or part of Sharia law says to avoid killing civilian populations??
    The Palestinian population is growing a fast rate what “ethic cleansing” is there ? , The Palestinians have better health care, jobs a better standard of living then their average uneducated relatives in Jordon or other neighboring countries they drifted into and out of in their tribal life style over the last 1000 years .

    wpm, you lied. Cite any Hadith supporting such incidence. The only incidence is where evil Jews were tried and convicted for treachery in breach of treaty of togetherness they duly signed with the holy Prophet. But your pagan mithraist Bible sanctioned genocide killings and ethnic cleansing ,including women and children, in Samuel 15:3 and book of Numbers 31:17 and mithraist churchmen carried it out during crusade wars and extermination of Americas by white mithraist christians and settled there. Currently, fascist evil zionists have been carrying out systematic genocidal killings of Palestinians and Jewish snippers shooting Palestinian civilian population from behind the segregating fence. wicked scums of evils inspired by one-eyed Satan god mithraist christians Call Holy Spirit. I will go back to China to learn more styles of kicking to have a free kick on your satan god on his nose to get him running away from fascist evil zionists to track them down and bring them to justice for crimes against humanity .

    When Major General Ibrahim justified his praise of jihad terror by saying that he supported “terrorism that terrorizes your enemy, and this is not only your right but your duty,” he was referring to Quran 8.60, which says:
    And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know [but] whom Allah knows. And whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.
