Salafist Jihadist Movement in Jordan Says Al-Nusra Front, ISIS Decided to Enter Lebanon
2014-01-03
[An Nahar] A leader in the Salafist Jihadist movement in Jordan announced on Thursday that the al-Qaida-affiliated Al-Nusra Front in Syria and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant have officially decided to militarily enter Lebanon.

"Al-Nusra leader Abu Mohammad al-Golani and ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi took the decision to officially and openly enter Lebanon," the leader told the Washington-based United Press International.

"They want to be militarily present in the country until Hizbullah withdraws from Syrian territories and frees all detainees it is holding as captives," he explained.

The leader did not provide any additional information in his message to the UPI.

The Salafist Jihadist Movement in Jordan is allied with both ISIS and Al-Nusra Front in Syria.

#2  Israel + IDF on its part won't be able to ignore both Hezbollah repor sneaking parts of LRBMS to the Paleos from Lebanon; + now Qaeda affiliates setting up shop in Lebanon even it is seemingly agz Hezbollah.

This will not end well.

#1  Personally, I'm interpreting this as Al-Qaeda's challenge to POTUS Bammer's new BFF + future OWG "Co-Superpower" Rising Iran.

MAMA RUSSIA = VLADVEDEV I'M A'LOOKIN AT YOUSE!

* FYI GROONG > AZERBAIJAN THE NEXT CRISIS THE NEXT CRISIS AFTER SYRIA [ + Iraq?]?

* SAME > RUSSIA LAUDS IRAN'S ROLE IN CAUCASUS SECURITY.

IMO as per the Bammer + SecState Jaawhn
"Presidential" Kerry, Russia = Vladvedev also expects Rising Iran to do its proper duty agz the Al-Qaeda Boyz, + Dooku's Boyz in the Caucasus
.... .... OR ELSE!
