Hezbollah commander dies in airstrike after phone call
|
[NYPOST] Israel lured out an elusive Hezbollah commander with a mysterious phone call moments before launching the deadly Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM! ...
that would kill him and cause the terror group to vow Dire Revenge, according to a new report.
Fuad Shukr, who had evaded even the US for four decades, was killed on July 30 when he received a phone call in the southern Beirut neighborhood of Dahiyeh, a Hezbollah official told the Wall Street Journal.
"I'm calling about your car's extended warranty..."
The evening call instructed the Hezbollah commander to go up to the seventh floor of his building, with an Israel missile slamming into the complex at around 7 p.m., killing him, his family and injuring 70 others, according to Leb
 ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
's health ministry.
Officials in the terror group believe the call came from someone who had breached its internal communications network, exposing failures in Hezbollah’s intelligence network that compromised one of its most senior and elusive leaders.
Shukr was one of Hezbollah’s key founders and trusted ally of chief His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah

, both of whom backed the terror group’s ongoing attacks on Israel since Oct. 8.
Despite his high-ranking position, the commander had remained out of the public spotlight since the 1983 Beirut bombings, where faceless myrmidons detonated two truck bombs at military barracks in the city, killing 241 American servicemen.
Shukr was so elusive that even people living in the same building where he hid and operated had no idea who he was.
"He was like a ghost," one neighbor told the Journal of Shukr, who he never spotted in the complex.
The Hezbollah officials’ shadow nature even followed him to the grave, with Lebanese media outlets initially publishing photos of the wrong man following the July airstrike.
The IDF had targeted Shukr following the attack he allegedly greenlit the rocket attack against the Israel-controlled Golan Heights, which killed 12 young people and left 40 other civilians injured.
