U.S. Blacklists Usamah al-Shihabi as Global Terrorist

No, not in the Qur'an. From Seeret el Anbiyah, where it is written that the Prophet Muhammad used to dye his beard red with 7enna (unlike modern Islamists, the Prophet was quite the jagal among his people). And this is where the hypocritical irony lies: that while the Islamic fanatics consider it 7aram to depict the likeness of the Prophet and 7allal to murder anybody who does so, especially if in jest, they do their utmost to represent his likeness on their own faces, and consider that as being "devout". Shoo hal maskhara indeed.

And as for "what property could he have in the U.S.?": I suppose not much different from what other Islamists of his ilk have in the U.S.: Mosques, Islamic Cultural Centres, Islamic Community Centres, schools; stuff like that; propaganda-capable.

come on, look how cute he is. looks like a little angel.

"The ruling March 14 coalition's tolerance of Salafi-jihadist networks isn't quite the nefarious conspiracy decried by the Lebanese opposition. The more prosaic reality is that the ultraconservative strand of Islamic fundamentalism they espouse has become deeply ingrained in peripheral Sunni areas of Lebanon that were egregiously neglected and harshly governed during the Syrian occupation. Any governing coalition that relies primarily on Sunni political support will find it virtually impossible (absent a major provocation) to confront Salafi jihadist networks, particularly in an atmosphere of confessional polarization and economic stagnation."

do not forget to mention this too....

interesting resource FT, thanks.

bravo peace, but dont be too selective, taking the one mitigating sentence and forgetting all the rest.

Because its base of political support hinges on the Lebanese Sunni community (which sympathizes strongly with overwhelmingly Sunni Palestinians), the March 14 coalition was not only loathe to violate the extraterritoriality of Lebanon's refugee camps, but reluctant to enter into a confrontation with any predominantly Sunni group. Thus, while the Siniora government's "Sunnification" of the internal security forces (ISF)[15] may have bolstered its ability to contend with the Shiite Hezbollah movement, it has proven to be ineffective in combating Sunni Islamists. When a Sunni mob set fire to the building housing the Danish embassy in February 2006 (to protest the publication of offensive cartoons), hundreds of ISF riot police stood by and watched.

In the neighborhood of Taamir adjacent to Ain al-Hilweh, the Siniora government did nothing for over a year and a half to remove the radical Islamist Jund al-Sham militia or prevent it from terrorizing the inhabitants. When the army finally deployed there several months ago, Jund al-Sham militants promptly seized control of a preschool and demanded financial compensation. Bahiya Hariri (Saad's aunt) paid off the militants (many of whom promptly relocated to Nahr al-Bared and joined Fatah al-Islam). [16]

mooowaten:
first the extract i posted comes from the same author BUT a different article... (so it appears you haven't read the whole article as it is not mentioned!)
so it is not as you say a "mitigating sentence"
- it is a full paragraph: not a sentence : so learn to read.
- here is the whole article : http://www.globalpolitician.com/print.asp?id=4371

but sure when it comes to contradict your propaganda you will not appreciate it...
proving how "objective" you are... LOL

wow peeace, you made a very strong point here, i must admit you are right: it is a paragraph, not a sentence. bravo.

as for the rest, I'm not surprised you dodged it because you've proven many times already that you're incapable of coping with reality.

moooowaten... just read the link i ve sent, the whole page and you ll see that M14 are not as you try and depict them in your hezbi propaganda...

but i m sure you ll omit the passages too compromising for your propaganda...

meaning you are just a pure hypocrit and propagandist, proving how biased thus not credible you are....

bla bla. you're a waste of my time pee ace.

just as i anticipated... you refuse to read what bothers you... poor boy.
so if i waste your time then i expect you to stop answering me and polluting my air

sure : so easy for blackman to mix two different things for the sake of his simplistic propaganda...

(1). @theobserver, not that I do not respect your opinion which on the surface is true, however if we dig a little deeper, this so called non lethal aid from the US has been also known to be as lethal as the word itself. The US and the West receive cash from some well known oil rich Arab countries, then they channel them to the concerned Arab countries who in turn channel the weapons into Syria through Turkey and Jordan. The US and the West will never stop their myopia, at the beginning, the Syrian revolution was noble, the struggle translated from street protests to armed resistance, thus the FSA which the US and the West failed to support, the Takfiris with the support they got added to the sheer insanity that is theirs just filled the gap.

(2). Now what? The war in Syria is no longer between a people who wanted change (only very fair) to one that pits a regime to fanatics who have nothing but genocides as their only agenda, so all the world's madmen now congregate in Syria for a war that has nothing to do with them, but for the utter hatred of one sick ideology against all other sects, again nothing to do with Islam. The US and the West again have created another catastrophe to which they have no clues over how to solve, and even worse, no guts either.

fully agree with what you said phoenix
