2017-07-04 Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Top Hamas commander, booted from Qatar, said hiding with Hezbollah
[TIMESOFISRAEL] One of the most wanted Paleostinian terrorists, believed by Israeli intelligence to have planned the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teens in the West Bank in the summer of 2014, has moved to Leb after being expelled last month from Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates...
Lebanese terror group Hezbollah is hosting Saleh al-Arouri in its Dahieh stronghold in southern Beirut, Channel 2 news reported Monday.

Citing unnamed Paleostinian sources, the television station said that Arouri and two other senior Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, figures have relocated to the Hezbollah-dominated neighborhood in the Lebanese capital, an area heavily protected with checkpoints on every access road.

On June 5, Paleostinian sources confirmed that Qatar -- which is embroiled in a boycott by Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
and four other Arab states -- had asked several top Hamas officials to leave for Leb, The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
and Malaysia.

A few days later, Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman charged that Arouri had resettled in Leb, where he has been planning, along with two other activists, terror attacks against Israel.

During a meeting with visiting American UN Ambassador Nikki Haley
...first woman to serve as Governor of South Carolina, and the second Indian-American governor in the country, after Bobby Jindal of Louisiana. At the age of 39, Haley is the youngest current governor in the U.S., a distinction formerly held by Jindal. She is a Republican, which really grates on the Dems...
, Liberman alleged that Arouri has also been attempting "to boost the relationship between Hamas and Hezbollah," the Shiite Lebanese militia, "under an Iranian umbrella, and with the assistance of the Revolutionary Guards and [its leader] Qassem Soleimani," according to a Hebrew-language statement from the Defense Ministry.

Leb is a "sovereign country" that maintains high-level bilateral ties with the United States, Liberman said, urging Washington to pressure Leb into expelling the three Hamas activists.

In its report Monday, Channel 2 said that Arouri may have chosen Beirut because the list of countries willing to host him are now limited and he fears Israel may try to exact Dire Revenge for the murder of the teenagers.
