Report: Hezbollah Enlisting Christians, Druze, Sunnis For Next War With Israel | |
2014-11-13 | |
[Ynet] Hezbollah is reportedly working to enlist Christian, Druze and Sunni youths for a new force called the 'Resistance Brigades' which will battle Israel in the next conflict between the Lebanese Shiite terror group and Israel. Under the slogan of "our fate is one and we must struggle together", the terror group is offering youths free arms and military training, a-Nahar reported.
Hizbullah ... Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistanceand purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory... is reportedly boosting and reactivating the Resistance That'd be the Hezbullies, natch... Brigades by recruiting fighters from all sects in the north and the west of the Bekaa valley and offering them training and arms to combat the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group and other organizations. According to An Nahar newspaper published on Wednesday, several youth are directly training with the Iranian Revolutionary Guards in return for a hefty salary ranging between $1,500 and $2,500. The newspaper reported that Hizbullah still hasn't sent the Resistance Brigades fighters to the neighboring country Syria but instead the party is preparing them to confront any upcoming war or murderous Moslem group that sought refuge in Leb. The report continued that a number of Christian fighters requested to join the Resistance Brigades amid the unstable security and social situation. The Syrian conflict has exacerbated existing sectarian tensions in Leb, where most Sunni residents back the Syrian uprising and Shiites generally support Syria's ![]() Pencilneckal-Assad Horror of Homs... . Hizbullah sent fighters to Syria to back President Assad's forces against rebels trying to remove him from power. The armed intervention in Syria earned the group the enmity of Syria's predominantly Sunni rebels. Assad is a member of the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam. Over the past year, Syrian troops and Hizbullah fighters have captured most of the towns and villages in Syria's mountainous Qalamoun region along the Leb border, depriving the rebels of residential areas where they can stay during the winter. However, those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things... Hizbullah's involvement in Syria had drawn the ire of many in Leb. | |

#5 I doubt many of these folk are actually enlisting w Hezbollah. The fact that Hezb is offering free weapons and a salary is a recruitment tool that has major risks for them. |

#1 If these Christians and the Druze are enlisting in a Lebanese Shiite terror group, they are not exactly being true to their faiths for a variety of reasons, and show great naivety. The Israelis are the only ones in the region wiling to protect their interests. That Hezbollah is reporting this makes it dubious. I'd be interested in hearing more from others sources. |
