Free Sunnis of Baalbek Brigade Vows to Silence Church Bells in Bekaa
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The vague group known as the Free Sunnis of Baalbek Brigade vowed to task gunmen to attack churches in Lebanon and in the eastern Bekaa valley in particular.
The Brigade announced on its twitter account that a “specialized group of free jihadists were tasked with cleansing the Islamic state of Bekaa in particular and in Lebanon in general from the churches.”
“We will target crusaders in the state and in Lebanon to silence the ringing of the bells,” the group said.
The Brigade recently pledged allegiance to the Islamic State, previously known as the Islamic State of the Iraq and the Levant.
The Islamic State declared over the weekend the establishment of the “Islamic caliphate” led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, ordering ordered Muslims worldwide to pledge allegiance to their chief, in a spectacular bid to extend their authority.
A "caliphate" is an Islamic form of government last seen under the Ottoman Empire.
The mysterious Free Sunnis of Baalbek Brigade had in the past claimed that it is an affiliate of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, but the ISIL later denied that.
On March 16, the Brigade engaged in a war of words with the al-Nusra Front in Lebanon, believed to be a local franchise of the Syria-based, Qaida-linked al-Nusra Front.
The dispute erupted after both groups claimed responsibility on Twitter for a deadly suicide bombing that rocked the Bekaa town of al-Nabi Othman.
The Brigade has claimed responsibility for several rocket and bomb attacks inside Lebanon, the last of which were the suicide blasts in Dahr al-Baydar and Raouche's Duroy Hotel.

Ado - the reality is that the Hizb is a big reason for the radicalization of some in the Sunni community. This does not mean that the state should be lenient with these terroist groups. Indeed all organs of the state should follow these groups and dismantle them. It also means that no one can be above the law in Lebanon and that include the Hizb.

No ado it is guy like u to blame, guys who wants us to believe that hezbollah action in lebanon like 7 ayyat, like not giving a damn abou STL, neither lebanese judiciary, neither hachem salman, nor distantion policy, that hezbos going to jihadist duty in syria, with her collegies from irak and only few hundreeds of iranian revolutionary gards (just for tecnical support) th all this has nothing to do with the shit we are in, yes ado its guys like u to blame,
We just want a country were we would have the same right and duty, were if u kill in daylight like hachem salaman at least a legal investigation should be open, when u kill an army officier in an army hellicopter )by mistake, maybe it was a bird) u get more than 6 month jail, when u are part of a governent u dont send ur private miliciq on jihadist duty..
Guys like u who just approve all hezbos does like there would be no concequence...
Go have some chupachups man, really...

if you are used to play with yourself, I would not be surprised. but assuming that others do is simply stupid :)
\in case you do not understand: the surge in sunni extremism is due to the shia extremism. whether you like it or not, it is a reality.
so the only traitor is yourself and your likes. simply by aligning yourself to your Iranian masters you defined yourself as a traitor.

Dear blabla tawhid mouvement was split in 2 since 80s with hachem minakara and saiid chaaban both fanatic muslims hachem
Minakara tried to implement chariaa in al mina, forced vield spread acid on non vieled women, executed leftist and christians, buried many alives, please go check ur history especialy when it comes to those..
And anyway hachem
Minkara is now part of march 8 forces in tripoli and bilal chaaban (son of said chaaban who died few years ago) also..
So what a nice secular, demacratic alternative to hariri, bravo...
Now time for chupachups blabla...

Even a caveman would figure out that this group is operating to the interest of the Syrian regime and his allies.
ISIS itself hasn't made such a declaration in Iraq. nothing can convince me that a group called "ahrar el sunna-baalbak",for which we haven't seen any member, making such a declaration, is not another hizbiz bluff.

rafehh... i agree with you that hezballoh is an excuse for radicalisation of some in the sunni community... but they are not the fault and justification of these extremists and threats against lebanese civilians and Christians in general. I want, like most lebanese, Hezbollah to integrate into lebanese state and army, but these terrorists cannot be justified. people like geha, that immediately justify these murderous extremist are more to blame than Hezbollah. Hezbollah do not hate other lebanese sects nor do they aim for their destruction. Foreign fuelled sectarian hatred is the cancer to all innocent civilian peoples around the world.
03 July 2014, 15:18
43
great pierro... the local supporters are people like geha that try to justify every terrorist by blaming anyone but the terrorists. Those that fly the black Al Qaida (salafist) flag and support the islamic state! these are the local supporters. The majority of lebanese sunni are against these people and many lebanese soldiers and security forces being killed by these freaks that geha supports, are sunni.
03 July 2014, 15:28
53
imagine_1979, what has happened to the 16 lebanese soldiers who had their throats slit in their sleep in akkar last year? no one has even been arrested! the hezbollah operative that killed the LAF helicopter pilot apologised and was handed in to the judiciary. Maybe his sentence was inadequate but it was a mistake. was the murder of the laf soldiers a mistake? in sidon, did assir mistakenly kill the laf? I do not approve hezbollah and i want to work constructively toward their integration into the state... i dont want to kill innocent civilians, blow up security check points, destroy churches, and murder shiites. how can you justify this?
03 July 2014, 15:42
41
Ado nobody was against laf going to naher el bared (exept the one putting red lights but he explained himself), there is 1/3 of lebanese population sunis if they wanted to protect assir they would have done that so please stop ur nonesence
Hezbos appologies for killing an laf officer in a hellicopter because he thought it was a bird??? and got jailed 6 months, samaha didnot even got trialed (officialy bc mamlouk could not be reached by liban post) no case was ern open in hachem salman assassination in daylight (even if it was iranian security gardes who did this an official investigation should hv been openned) ali eid and friends and tripoli bombing..assination attempt on boutros harb (the guy inculpated is now a hero martyr of hezbollah....
So no biase in the way our country is ran, no? What do u think?...

I'm a secular person, i wish for a secular state, a civil code wich we would all be equal under the law, everyone has the right to think and wish and try to convice other of what he wants but not by force, this is where the line should be... (In my opinion)
And talking about musilims, christian in central africa and south soudan can teach da3ech a lot...
Man wake up, extremism will only bring more extremism, hezbollah jihadist duty will bring even more jihadist
And hachem minkara and saiid chaaban as an secular modern m8 alternative to hariri, really man?...
Blabla really go have some chupachups

No... and a thousand No... these terrorists came as a direct result of HA actions and sectarian policies in Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Bahrain, and now Iraq. Go sell your propaganda elsewhere. We know the truth....
03 July 2014, 12:47

totally agree with geha and eagledown, it's all a result of HA's sins and diabolical incantations made with baby blood, just like H1N1, smallpox, the killing of kennedy and least but not last, the holocaust.
the free takfiris of baalbek-arsal are totally right and justified in their logic of revenging on christians
03 July 2014, 13:18

No jeha hezbos have nothing to do with it, they are just inculpated in hariri assassination, they went throw 7ayar, they are implicated in assassination attempts, they covered ali eid and co suspected in tripoli bombings, when for jihadist duty in syria... No u are perfectly right what could they hv done to piss others against them?...

I think it lokks more like shaker el abssi freed from syrian jail (while hundreeds of political prisoner are still tortured in those jail) and sent to lebanon as a gift...

These rogue unknown groups are a creation of the iranian and syrian intelligence bureaus. They contribute nothing to the cause of the oppressed in Syria, Lebanon, or Iraq. They got their orders to scare the Christians in Lebanon and they issued this silly message. Before Church bells are silenced in Lebanon, I will bet everything I have the Sunni community in Lebanon will rise and silence them forever.
03 July 2014, 08:45
58
This is another propaganda by HA to say "look, we are not the only ones targeted but you Christians too". Similar to what the paid mouthpieces on this forum say like crusher, southern and mowaten. Only fools will believe this... As a Christian, I feel much safer among my Sunni friends and compatriots than with a farsi khomenei terrorist organization claiming to protect me and my country from an imagined enemy.

That's the suni hezbos are fighting in leb, while allying with hachem minkara and billal chaaban... Go figure...
So yes a da3ech loke in lebanon, do u think hezbos are buying fuel from free sunni brigades like assad and da3ech?...

And yet the February 14 Al Qaeda sympathizer still rush to their defense. The February 14 pro-Al Qaeda vision is simply incompatible with Lebanon as a free, independent, and democratic society.

It's uncanny anything the Syrian army already did to us these extremists threaten to do, on a much much smaller scale of course, no one can even ever come close to what the Assads did to the Lebanese not in a million years.

I cannot understand how people think and believe that Hezbollah brought these extremists to Lebanon like most of the above guys do. GET A LIFE PEOPLE, they came to conquer and raise the ISIS flag since they believe this is gonna happen sooner or later and now is the perfect time. I wonder what the above stupid people would think if ISIS killed/raped/hanged/burnt/beheaded/or even cut in pieces as FATWA and HALAL their beloved ones when their war to Lebanon starts. I so wish that Hezbollah along with the Army keeps everything under control in Lebanon because these stupid people do not know whom they are supporting or they think that living in ignorance would lead them somewhere safe.

@ransar first all sects have loose nuts among them and they should be re educated to to be civil citizens. Second, hizbola is an iranian fully controlled thus all iranian tactics are used including shsdy groups thst mskes hizbollah look so nice when comparred with "sunna bregades" all as part of image cleaning machine. Thirdly, from where ever it comes we should live in peace and all forms of a religious people lunatics with arms should be stopped starting from hizbollah as they are clearly the biggest down to the rest.

The "free sunni brigade" is noyhing more than a faceless Abou Adass style clones being used to take credit for Michel Samaha style crimes, many similarly named brigades were used throughout the seventies and eighties to take the blame away for Syrian regime's terrorist acts in Ashrafieh and elsewhere in the Christian free areas.

To whom this may concern among Christians;
Keep up the infighting, blaming each others, while your churches are being demolished. The End is Near.
“We will target crusaders in the state and in Lebanon to silence the ringing of the bells”: A notion supported by Hizb as well as by moderate and extremist Sunnis.

2- I know you jerk off to the idea that this site is Saudi owned. Can you please back your claim ? You really have very weird fantasies. Unless you can deliver proof, shut up. You're really ridiculous. In fact, all your allegations and lies about this are never removed showing how utterly stupid your allegations are !
3- Where do you see a Sunni=good and Shiaa = bad ? If you believe so in your tiny tiny little brain, this doesn't make it true. Like all the BS you come up with daily !

Ironic that some Christians in Lebanon are so blinded by their hatred of Hezbollah, and rightfully so as I am a Shiite who is completely against this Iranian criminal organization, are willing to support takfiris and jihadists who consider not only Christians but other non-Sunnis as infidels and heretics. Bravo Geagea and March 14 Christians, you are a disgrace to Christianity and to the history of Lebanon's Christians.
03 July 2014, 17:49

In any case, if churches start getting blown up, Christians living in the Bekaa terrorized and the quasi-state cannot stop such attacks, what do we do? We would have two options.
1. Beg Hezbollah to protect us. Yippee! would Nasrallah say. I, myself, is the protector of the Christians. All I ask is a small political token.
2. Take matter in our own hands and in the process risk starting a civil war. Hezbollah is not about to tolerate armed Christians in its turf, and Sunnis would say "if the Shia are armed, and the Christians are armed, then we should be armed".
Somebody is cooking up something nasty for this country.... I smell it. do you?

For those who are saying this is a hoax in order to continue to believe that all is the fault of Hezb, I give you the direct source of the story, the organization's twitter account: https://twitter.com/Ahrarsunab3lbek

Hi M11er, I do have a brain - just because I may or may not disagree with you does not absolve my capacity to think.
Whether Hezbollah is or is not a terrorist organization (I acknowledge that they have committed some terrorist acts, as documented by impartial sources) is not an indicator of whether other terrorist groups are operating in Lebanon. I agree that Hezb's weapons are an issue, but it does not make other issues any less pressing. One of these issues happen to be the recent rise in militant groups formally or informally linked to Al-Qaeda, both in the Middle-East broadly and in Lebanon. One reason may be related to Hezb, but it is not the only reason.

It is really sad to see that you guys are fighting about who is responsible for what instead of realizing just for once that the entire country is threatened, sunnis, chiites and christians... you really are all a shame and it is because of people like all of you and because of your mindsets that Lebanon is here today. Learn to live as one, take responsibility, listen to both 8th and 14th of March as they both are right for some things and wrong for others. Stop being blind and start loving that land that will soon dispear due to human stupidy

Big John, have you never heard of the Boogie Man?? It is a ploy, much as the Assad Regime used to Copt the loyalty of the Syrian Christians away from the Syrian Opposition (and later became a self-fulfilling prophesy). Hezbollah is using the same tactic as was used by it's ally, basher Assad, to Copt the loyalty of the Lebanese Christians. And for what do they want the loyalty of the Lebanese Christians?? The presidential elections, the parliamentary elections. Shia are only 35% of the population, Christians make up 40% of the Lebanese. So with Christian loyalty to Hezbollah as the ally and protector from this fictitious Boohie Man, Hezbollah's consolidation of power in Lebanon is complete. Come on man, stop looking at the surface, that's the show card, look at what's in the hole!

علوش لـ”الوطن” السعودية : مخابرات الأسد تثير “البلبلة”
قال النائب السابق مصطفى علوش لـ”الوطن” السعودية، إن بيان أحرار السنة في بعلبك وتوجيه رسائل ضد المسيحيين “مجرد محاولة لزيادة عامل الخوف والإرهاب وإثارة “البلبلة”، وربما عناصر مخابراتية تدخل في الموضوع على طريقة بشار الأسد، أي إرسال الإرهاب من أجل استغلاله لاحقاً”.
وأكد أنه “طالما أن “حزب الله” موجود في سوريا وصولاً إلى العراق فهذا يفتح الأبواب أكثر نحو مزيد من التشرذم في لبنان وإمكانية الخروج ولو بشكل جزئي من جهنم الحالي هو خروج “حزب الله” في سوريا والذهاب إلى تفاهمات سياسية أساسها إعلان بعبدا”.
