| 2013-06-10 |
| [An Nahar] The head of the Jamaa Islamiya political bureau Azzam al-Ayyoubi lashed out at Hizbullah on Sunday, considering that the rebels in Syria and Qusayr are the "real resistance." "Hizbullah is creating sedition that will lead to its end," Ayyoubi said during a ceremony in the northern region of Akkar. He pointed out that after the battle of Qusayr "Hizbullah can no longer be called a resistance." He described the people of Qusayr and the rebels in Syria as the "real resistance that is defying oppressors and invaders." Ayyoubi slammed Hizbullah chief His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb... , accusing him of "igniting a sectarian war that will not stop at the borders of Syria." Syrian regime forces backed by elite Hizbullah fighters on Wednesday managed to recapture the strategic town of Qusayr near Leb's border from rebel hands following a fierce assault. And on Saturday the Eastern Bweida village, the last rebel bastion in the area, was seized by Syrian forces, bringing the entire Qusayr region near the border with Leb back under regime control. Only 10 kilometers from Leb, Qusayr is strategic for the regime and Hizbullah because of its proximity to the border and because it lies on a route linking Damascus to the the regime's bastion on the Syrian coast. For the rebels, it was an important conduit from Leb for men and weapons. "Hizbullah is not longer a supporter of those who are defenseless," Ayyoubi added. Ayyoubi said that wondered how "Hizbullah pretends to be defending the land against Israel but joined the U.S. and the Jewish state battle against the Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who most be killed... s." The official called on the Shiites to reconsider their stance as "the party will only lead the sect further to strife." |
