ISIL Claims Responsibility for Haret Hreik Bombing
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربيةThe al-Qaida-affiliated Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant on Saturday claimed credit for the deadly bombing in the Beirut southern suburb of Haret Hreik.
ISIL managed to penetrate the "security system of the Party of Satan (Hizbullah)... and crush its strongholds... in a first small payment from the heavy account that is awaiting those wicked criminals," according to a statement obtained by U.S.-based SITE Intelligence Group.
The statement was published on the ISIL-affiliated Itissam Foundation's account on the social networking website Twitter
Four people died and another 77 were wounded by a suicide car bomb in Haret Hreik on Thursday.
It was the latest strike against the party, whose fighters are aiding Syrian President Bashar Assad.
The army said Saturday that a young man from the North was the bomber who blew himself up.
"The DNA test results on the remains of a suicide attacker found in the car used in the bomb attack... confirm they belong to the youth Qutaiba al-Satem," said the army.
"Investigations are ongoing by the relevant judicial authorities to uncover the full details of the event," it added.
An official from Satem's native area of Wadi Khaled told Agence France Presse on Friday suspicions over the 20-year-old's role were based on a family document found at the scene of the blast.
Satem's father was then called in for DNA tests.
You can thank Hezbollah and Iran for bringing the Iraqi Shia-Sunni Civil war to Lebanon. You think Iran cares about arabs killing each other?
Hezbollah and Iran pioneered sucide bombings. Remember the barracks in 1983. Mohammad Hossein Fahmideh was a 13 year old Iranian suicide bomber who was hailed as a national hero by Khomeini himself in the 1980s.
Difference is, to target American Marines, and to target civilians as your heroes do yazid. So what is the irony there?
"In the early 1980s, Hezbollah popularized suicide bombings as an effective terrorist tactic. In April 1983, Hezbollah allegedly blew up a van filled with explosives in front of the U.S. embassy in Beirut killing 58 Americans and Lebanese. Then in October 1983, Hezbollah is believed to be responsible for a truck bomb that detonated in the U.S. Marine barracks killing 241 American peacekeepers, and a simultaneous truck bombing at the French barracks that killed 58 French soldiers. These attacks contributed to the decision to withdraw U.S. forces from Lebanon the following year. Hezbollah also carried out a number of kidnappings of Westerners in Lebanon during the mid 1980s, in which they executed the hostages or traded them for money or weapons.
"
Hezbollah, a world renowned terrorist organization famous for suicide bombings.
You should follow in the footsteps of Ibrahim Hussein Berro.
"In addition to Lebanon, Hezbollah's security apparatus operates in Europe, North and South America, East Asia, and other parts of the Middle East, and it is believed to be responsible for a number of other high profile terrorist attacks. In 1985 Hezbollah members hijacked TWA flight 847 and held the 39 Americans on board hostage for weeks. In addition, the 1992 bombing of the Israeli Embassy in Argentina and the 1994 bombing of a Jewish cultural centre in Buenos Aires are attributed to Hezbollah. Furthermore, in June 1996, Hezbollah allegedly attacked the Khobar Towers housing complex in Dharan, Saudi Arabia, killing 19 U.S servicemen and wounding hundreds of others.
"
True the hijack of the TWA flight 847 happend, but no civilians were killed, only one US. Navy seal marine died, so what is your point ya yazid?
There were no proofs that it was Hezbollah behind it, just as what happend in Bulgaria, leaks indicates they were comitted by Al Qaeda affiliated groups.
Who did the 9/11 again hmm? Your beloved so called "Sheikh Osama" that worked for CIA against the soviets back in the day. Very smart yazid
The Bulgarian and Argentine governments can confirm the attacks were conducted by Hezbollah agents. As usual, it's hezbollah's zionist conspiracies against the world and reality.
Now that makes no sense yazid, first of all why would the zionist want Israeli civilians to die? And why would Hezbollah destroy their image by targeting Civilians? That is not true, and wont happen. There is a difference between accusing and having the proofs behind it. Ofcourse they blamed Hezbollah, they also blamed Hezbollah in 9/11 before they knew who it really were.
The investigations link to Iran and Hezbollah in both cases, and only to them, not so with 9/11, furthermore Al-Qaeda is generally open about their attacks, why wouldn't they be here?
Because i believe CIA and Al Qaeda are working together, just like Osama worked with them prior to 9/11 and just as they did with the influx of fighters from Turkey into Syria. It all makes perfectly good sense.
Shia Iran worked with the zionists in Afghanistan and Iraq. They are co-conspirators with the zionists, if there is any conspiracy. For the bombings, all evidence points to hezbollah and iran in those cases. What does Bulgaria have to do with the CIA or the Mossad?
What zionists are you talking about? Iran didn't work with anyone, The west already had sanctions on them back then. All your Qaeda theories don't give any points or facts Yazid, maybe they do in Saudi Arabia, but not here.
Iran offered to sell out Hezbollah in exchange for direct assistance in Iraq. That is a fact, and the zionists overthrew Saddam and replaced him with an iranian puppet shia regime, and the shias worked with the us occupational govenrment against the Sunnis. In Afghanistan, both the US and Iran worked with the northern alliance against the Taliban.
What facts are those? Something you believe yourself, good for you. Now there is a difference between, wishes and facts Yazid.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/6274147.stm
Also, see the book "Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States"
An Iranian agent living in the US, Trita Parsi admits to the historical background dealings between Iran and the US 'evil zionist empire'.
Mystic - "leaks indicates they were comitted by Al Qaeda affiliated groups" do you specialize in lying?
"Since that time, Lebanese guerrilla group Hezbollah inflicted significant military losses on the major US ally in the region, Israel, in the 2006 conflict and is now claiming increased political power in Lebanon."
Wasn't it you who just said Hezbollah and Israel were working together? The quote above is from your very link.
Iran doesn't control Hezbollah, they support them nothing else. No matter how much the BBC or American wants it.
They are in Syria, to protect Lebanese & Syrians against the takfiri threat, and because Syria is a long time ally of the Resistance, they helped us against Israel.
There would be no hezbollah without the syrian connection and Iran. Hezbollah is a pet dog that depends on the leash linked to Syria.
Don't forget Shia Iran's failures in Iraq and Afghanistan. All the shias in syria need to do is lose once...
That is indeed, what the takfiris and western leaders, said would happen 3 years ago. You said every month that it was only a matter of time, but it never happend. Now it is your takfiri days that are being counted Yazid.
The days of the shia regime are already numbered. In Afghanistan, a complete failure for the west and their shia zionist buddies, the Taliban are set to regain complete control, and in Iraq, the shias still don't even have control over a significant part of iraq despite US zionist assistance. It's the secular FSA who are losing, which in the long-run, is good for the islamists.
FSA are Al Qaeda controlled aswell. What is all this paranoid delusions about shia hegemony? Saud really makes you takfiris paranoid with all this nonsense, Syria was a peaceful country and their people lived in harmony until, the takfiris started calling out for "freedom". Now is this the freedom you want? Death and destruction.
No, the FSA are secularists like the Egyptian Army, that's why the US supports them, and that's why the US hasn't said anything about the coup in Egypt. The Islamists are against the FSA. The Shias wanted to oust Saddam, but Saddam was a real Arab Baathist Nationalist, unlike assad who caters to the Iranians, so at least Saddam Baathists were intellectually consistent. And there was never any real peace in any baathist regime, ask ethnic minorities like the kurds.
So how come, if this is an all out Shia sunni war, as you claim, and which i deny. Then how come the Egyptian army are crushing the Muslim brotherhood? They are both sunnis and it still happens? That is indeed because nobody wants to live under takfiri rules yazid, normal sunnis rejects them aswell. That is why you will loose, Syrians are fighting for the country they once were, you are fighting to destroy everyones lives, and insert your fake caliphate, that wont include any minorities or normal sunnis just the Salafi and takfiris will remain, in your dreams that is.

All these dictatorships were traditionally sustained by western support one way or another, and now the west is on the decline. The majority of Egyptians voted for the MB and then the Salafis, they wanted a sunni islamist system, just like in Iran, the majority of Iranians vote for the shia islamist regime. You can't have it both ways. The Egyptian military enforced zionist mubarak's rule and acts as agents for the US. So, what you're saying is that most egyptians are zionists going by your zionist conspiracy theories. LOL
How come the Saudis are backing the Egyptian military if they are supporting the islamists? Because the Saudis want dictatorships, they are opposed to the islamists. There are wealthy saudi individuals who support islamists, but those same islamists want to overthrow all the corrupt regimes including saudi arabia's. Unlike shias who try to make a black and white picture and say that they support Saudi Arabia.
Nobody is denying that Saudi arabia worked with USA, but my point is, that Saudi also backed US against Saddam. Just like both of them backed him, when he was fighting Iran, but Saudi wanted to protect their little brother Kuwait, so they had to support US against Saddam. Now about Egypt, Muslim brotherhood is supported by Qatar, and the Egyptian army, by US saudi etc.
Saudi and Qatar are fighting a war in Egypt.
I do believe the Egyptian army will cut their ties with Saudi & USA and be closer to Russia now.
All the Gulf countries supported the coup, except for Qatar, but that doesn't mean that Qatar ever wanted a caliphate, which is what the islamists would want. If push eventually came to shove, Qatar might have switched sides, but the specific modern MB agenda in Egypt did not openly advocate a caliphate.
Also, you had the shias in Bahrain whining about freedom until they
were put down like dogs. Saddam and the Saudis had issues over Kuwait, however, they both had the same view towards the Iranians and it was Iran that desperately wanted Saddam to be overthrown in order to dominate Iraq to the extent that they were willing to sell-out Hezbollah.
The Egyptian military is funded and was historically funded under mubarak by the US government. They would be broke and non-existent without foreign support propping up the regime.
As for Russia, LOL, Russia is not going to give them a dime (they couldn't even afford it), and Russia also has issues with Iran. Even in Syria, Russia is only using Assad for oil drilling rights. The Russians originally brainwashed the azeris into pan-turkism so that they are now allies of the sunni turks, against shia iran.
You mean the Al Qaeda, who killed all the which caused them to mass exodus from Iraq. Just like AL Qaeda is destroying the christians in Syria now,

Syria before the war, and i know you will probaly say it is propaganda, because it is from an Iranian site, so here Western news aswell

Here Al Qaeda beheaded a priest, which contradict the bs you said.
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/damianthompson/100224075/syrian-rebels-behead-a-catholic-priest-before-a-cheering-crowd-wheres-the-msm-reaction/
This is the same western media, that you send me before. So don't call it propaganda, this is just to show you, that you are lying.
By the way, Moqtada al Sadr is backing the Al Qaeda against Maliki aswell.
Apparently, you're double spamming posts now, here's my response from the other thread:
al Sadr has a political dispute with al-maliki over term limits, but he wants a shia iranian backed terror state to remain in place nonetheless.
Yes, in Iraq, it's both sunni and shia extremists who are killing christians, so there's effectively no difference. We know how shia operate when they are in the majority.
Apparently you are waitng for my every comment, so i had to make sure you read it. Now this is a waste of time. Christians knows that it is the Al Qaeda whom are killing them, christians in Syria seek protection from the government, and they know who the ones are, that is destroying their churches, forcing them to Islam, and beheading their children.
Al Qaeda rebels AKA FSA destroying the beloved virgin mary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9cQjAwjWMo
You re mentally ill ya resistance. Seriously. The guy said Iranians don't care about Arabs killing eachother. Was it the name that provoked you? Get over it.
We can't really have dialogue with each other Yazid, we are both enemies, and that it will continue on that path, until either one of us is finished. I Back the Resistance, you back Al Qaeda, it is ok. So what are we talking about? Our conversations wont gain anything. Just a waste of time.
LOL, you want to play politicking and popularity contests, but christians are also suffering from shia terror in iraq, shia terrorists are no different. This proves that shias are simply pure opportunists.
"Shia Terrorists have already shown their true colors in iraq with their death squards in which sunnis and assyrian christians are targeted and killed.
You see here the mahdi army killing an assyrian girl for being christian.

And a Shiite Iraqi Ayatollah has issued a fatwa to convert to Islam or die for iraqi christians:

Who are the Hezbalshaytan targeting now mystic? Doesn't seem like they re targeting an advanced war machine. Villagers who've risen up against their arms supplier!?!?
Just remember what happened to Husayn and continue to follow in his footsteps, that is all.....
Let the Christians decide for themselves, who their real enemies are. I do know one thing, it is not the sunni or the shia, it is the Takfiri Al Qaeda who are their enemies.

Just like i know, it is not the sunni that is my enemy, just the takfiris. And you are a takfiri.
Sure, let the christians see how the shias act in iraq where they are in the majority towards christians and sunnis, they don't act any different, and christians are killed by shia terrorists as we have seen.
I look forward to the day, Lebanon has been purged by you takfiris, you are shooting yourself in the foot everytime. Just like in Syria, you are loosing we both know that, so now you are crying and whining, even glorifying the terrorist act, seen on this very post. Keep it going ya wahabi
Continue to cry and whine about Iraq and Afghanistan, where the Taliban is crushing the shia-zionist coalition, and in Iraq, where shias still don't have effective control over the state despite assistance from the us zionists. LOL, shias don't have any options regarding losing, there will always be more and more sunnis, since sunnis are the majority, on the other hand, shias only need to lose once, this is while iran is facing a massive economic crisis. Shias /Iran can't even AFFORD to continue at the rate they're going, curious, isn't it?
مئة عام من سايكس بيكو وستون عاما من حكم العسكر والاقليات الدموي في كل بلاد العرب والمسلمين. جرائم الابادة الجماعية التي يرتكبها الحكم العسكري العلوي ضد الشعب السوري هي جرائم لا تغتفر تضاف الى جرائم الاستعمار واذنابه ضد امتنا في الجزائر والعراق وافغانستان ومصر وفلسطين والصومال. ان نهاية المجوس والروافض ستكون نهاية دموية.
ISIL is the enemy of all free people, and all sects. They are a cancer that has to be removed.
I believe the official statement coming out in regards to the Haret Hreik terror attack and pray that all those behind this sickly attack get arrested and receive the maximum punishment. My heart goes to all the victims of this cowardly attack. But all the same, I am one who is still waiting for something to show up for the other cowardly and sick attack on Mohamad Al Shatah, everyone wants to know who is behind that attack too. this side or that side makes no difference to me, what matters is that all crimes perpetrated on Lebanese soil and on Lebanese people all be given the same importance. If we are to follow most official lines, since they claim that literally the one and same hand is doing all this carnage, then let the killers of Al Shatah be known, I am sure the state knows.
@Phoenix, i still believe it is the Takfiris who killed Mohammed Shatah, in order to create secterian war in Lebanon. I believe they did both bombings.
Hi brother Mystic, this is it exactly what I am at pains to explain, but in less accusatory form. If the state clears the air with impartiality in its work, and works hard and fast to tell the public about who killed Al Shatah and those innocents in that area, I am sure that all these accusations and speculation flying so wildly around like meteors over our heads will be silenced. The state must not work fast on one side yet drag its feet on the other, that creates added suspicions and frustrations, personally I am inclined to blame the state for not being firm enough and of not being impartial.
Bro phoenix, it is not easy for any state to confront terrorism such as these blasts or the Mohammed Chatah murder, it has to be planned well, and in coordination with the Armed Forces. I hope there will be unity in defeating the real threat (takfiris). We should not fall in their trap and create secterian war, because they don't have a sect those takfiris, all they want is blood and war including a new Khalifah state in Lebanon, Syria etc.
The fragile stability of Lebanon is no longer on the fence. Lebanon has been divided again. For those who constantly blame each other with useless insults on this site, this means you were already conquered. Neither side is to Lebanon's advantage since the regional success of either side will alienate the other side. Where are your respective benefactors, and what will they do to hit you with the dagger where it hurts most?
How does Lebanon get out of this problem?
If they all get out, then Lebanon gets out of this problem. (Bachir Gemayel).
Lebanon gets out of this trouble, if the army starts clearing out Takfiris. That would be the end to the terror.
No, if H.A. stands for "resistance", then let H.A. do some useful resisting against the Takfiris too. Not in Syria, but Lebanon. Israel can not possibly be Lebanon's only enemy? The army's job must be to clean up "all" those who have infiltrated its boarders.
@Vincent, trust me they will if the battle starts. If the LAF starts fighting the takfiris, Hezbollah will be backing them for sure.
@Dog They declared war on all Lebanon, just like this terror act, so you want to sit back, and watch while more blasts hits us? Don't forget they were threatening other than Hezb aswell.
The LAF is supposed to defend their country and people, so that is their job, and worth dying for.
I am not a fan of the takfiris but I think if you polled every Sunni living in Lebanon today you would find more of us see Hezbollah as a greater threat.
The takfiris are not the beginning and end to terror. They don't have the capabilities or local logistic resources, or infiltration in our institutions, to pull off the terrorist assassinations we have seen.
Aha? So we are the cowards whom are actually, fighting the cowards doing suicide missions hmm. Very creative doggy, just not in the smart way. We will see who the cowards are, in the end. Btw Hezbollah don't have a significant force in Syria, only a handful, to provide training to pro government resistance militias.
Just as when the takfiris scream Allahu Akbar, while storming into their deaths. They are not good fighters at all, they are good at screaming tho. Just like most people here on Naharnet.
We keep blaming each other, we have to admit we are stupid people getting entangled in dirty games, i am very sad for the victims, they might be brothers, sisters, friends or relatives, this is getting very scary
Gaby
what's a captagon? I read someone got arrested as he had a captagon machine on him
@FT indeed, but people seem to forget, before this fake "revolution". Syria was once a country that lived in peace and harmony with no secterian lines, free hospitals and schools, nobody were starving.
Then these takfiris came and destroyed their lives and civilization, just as they want to do here in Lebanon, then when we are all destroyed, they will create a new Caliphate with Ayman al-Zawahiri as their Caliph.
This is what the takfiris wants, and they do not care about which sect you belong, anybody who say wrong to them, sunni,shia,christian, druze etc. If you talk back to them, you will be beheaded. Just like in Syria.
I'm afraid if people don't wake up here in Lebanon, this will happen to us aswell. Either we unite against this, or there will probaly be a full blown civil war.
No Arab Natinalist/Baathist regime was ever peaceful, you can ask ethnic minorities like the kurds, but at least Saddam's regime was intellectually consistent, and he was opposed by the shia terrorists. Unlike Assad, who servers the iranians. Shia Terrorists have already shown their true colors in iraq with their death squards in which sunnis and assyrian christians are targeted and killed.
You see here the mahdi army killing an assyrian girl for being christian.

By the way, Moqtada al Sadr is backing the Al Qaeda against Maliki aswell.
Yazid, you are mixing everything together. And your topics are clearly off this post. You should stick to one subject
al Sadr has a political dispute with al-maliki over term limits, but he wants a shia iranian backed terror state to remain in place nonetheless.
Yes, in Iraq, it's both sunni and shia extremists who are killing christians, so there's effectively no difference. We know how shia operate when they are in the majority.
I'm fully on the subject, you want to ignore shia terrorism, and then cherry-pick sunnis attacks, but, guess what, at the end of the day, shias are little different, as we see in Iraq.
Iraqi Shias fully backed by the shia Iranian government have been killing christians and sunnis in accordance with their shia beliefs.
That makes no sense. So the majority of the se takfiris who are Syrian are all in a fuss because they had it so great and just didn't realize what you realize? You re an absolute moron mystic.
Even if the takfiris are stateless actors, the Syrian people have allowed them to fight against their oppressor, why? Because one is worse than the other. Bashar and his haiwan in HA are worse.
@Southern
No such thing as preventive intervention my friend. The outcome of HA intervention was predictable and the results calamitous for us Lebanese.
جاب الدب على كرمه، او حركة بوكر الدبابير. Take your pick, either way it was absolutely the wrong move for the wrong reasons so please stop the propaganda cause you know better.
Southern. Mental retardation - that's the only way I can explain the things you say. HA preemptively went against the FSA and Syrian civilians because Hassan Nasrallah with his infallible genius saw that villagers protesting dictatorship would eventually bring takfiris to Lebanon.... You re a few chromosomes short of a complete set buddy.
I don't see any justifications for bombing but I don't see any issue with is discussing the cause or predictability of extremists fighting against HA.
Think about it - HA has occupied our neighbours land killing women and children. They represent a sect of 80 million versus 1.4 billion, and we ve allowed them to represent not only the Lebanese Shia but also our government and institution. I hope that 1.4 billion who either want to wipe HA out or are sympathetic with the ones who will can somehow do their business without the rest of us involved.
And your point is? Thanks for stating the obvious. Of course it's not the FSA. I am sure one day when Syria is liberated the FSA will have an issue with HA but it will be open and deliberate - not a suicide bombing. And I'm also sure at that time that your master GMA will switch positions in hopes of attaining the presidency.
I agree it's sad. What's the solution? Lebanese should be for the Lebanese. Our army should follow civil direction and our government should to. That's acting as one. Basically it was the Baabda declaration.
If you look at the history of war, the side who goes to war without allies suffers. It takes pain and patience to build consensus but that's what is needed to win, as well as the belief that what they re doing is right.
HA has none of the above.
The best way to solve the problem is to have LAF and UN forces deploy on the border and seal it one way. Anybody who want to fight in syria can have one way ticket but not allowed to come back, or should be detained on his way back and locked for treason. I would be very delighted if hizbebola and sunni extremists exterminate each other in syria. It s really a good riddance; it is less costly than having to fight them here.
And people who are defending Hizboebola claiming it is the lesser of the 2 evils wake up. They are as bad if not even worse than sunni takfiris. The big difference is that Shia are much better in using their Taqqiya than sunnis; they are very deceiving. The sunni extremists are very frank and honest about their "thirst for spilling blood" whereas the shia very good at hiding it and wait for the right moment to kill you.
Bottom line, none of these can ever be trusted. And before u start calling me names, I consider myself a real muslim
