15 Hizbullah Fighters Killed in Syria's Fleita

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Fifteen members of Hizbullah were killed in fierce battles with rebels on the outskirts of the town of Fleita in the Syrian al-Qalamoun region, the Syrian National Coalition said.

The coalition said that the rebels controlled the Syrian town of Fleita after the intensified battles with the Syrian regime troops and Hizbullah.

“15 members of Hizbullah were killed in battles with the rebels on the outskirts of Fleita,” a statement pointed out.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also reported that “intensified battles occurred on Thursday night between fighters from al-Nusra Front and the Islamist Brigades and Syrian troops backed by Hizbullah fighters in the rural al-Ghouta suburb.”

On August 14, Hizbullah overran the town of Mleiha, 10 kilometers (six miles) southeast of Damascus, after months of fighting.

Hizbullah is a close ally of the Syrian regime and has been fighting alongside government troops against an uprising there.

Its involvement has helped the army to recapture key territory, but drawn the ire of many in Lebanon.

The passport these guys hold has no meaning when they are part of a grander Iranian geopolitical scheme. Same goes for any Tripoli Sunni radicals who place Shariah over the lebanese state. No tears for any of these...

I would have preferred 15 HA militants being killed defending lebanon against IS from within than them being killed fighting someone else's war.

Thumb jabal10452 22 August 2014, 15:32

Lebanon has Christians, Shia, Druze, moderate Sunnis and other sects. Lebanon is in the Levant. So Lebanon is in the sights of IS. Sooner or later they are coming for us unless they are destroyed. Hezbollah is fighting them is Syria, but I still believe that Hezbollah is a big part of the problem, and here's why: by building a state-within-the-state, Hezbollah has weakened Lebanese institutions to the point where the country cannot defend itself without Hezbollah's help. Because of this the Lebanese people is divided, and a people divided is doomed to fail.

Thumb jabal10452 22 August 2014, 15:32

(continued)
A better way for Lebanon is for Hezbollah's military to submit to the authority of the state and for the state to effectively seal and defend our borders against IS intrusions. Some of you say it can't be done, but I say just look at Israel: Its borders are effectively sealed and defended, and I don't see any Nusra or IS succeeding in breaching those borders.
IS is a mortal threat to us. Hezbollah is not the solution. A strong, united country is.

I am proud to inform you that your son was martyred in Syria while:
Option #1: Logistically helping Lebanese Shiites who've been living in Syrian towns on the Lebanese border for centuries but for some mysterious reason I cannot explain are not called Syrians.
Option #2: Protecting Shiite shrines.
Option #3: Defending Lebanon by preemptively going to Syrian to fight the Takferis so they don't come to Lebanon.
Option #4: Defeating the Zionist, US, Saudi, Qatari, Turkish and Western conspiracy on Syria.
Option #5: Preventing Bashar's regime from falling.
Option #6: Fighting Da3esh before they get to the Lebanese coast and freak out at the sight of the bikini clad women.
Option #7: A fresh new reason, one of many to be given later by myself. As long as you keep believing this crap we'll keep coming out with new ones.
Option#8: None of the above.
Your son have joined the thousand other martyrs in that great sauna room in the sky, free refreshments will be served on the terrace..
