إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov condemned on Monday the assassination of Internal Security Forces Intelligence Bureau head Brigadier General Wissam al-Hasan on October 19 in Beirut's district of Ashrafiyeh.

Addressing claims that Bulgarian explosives were used in the blast, he said: “We condemn some sides' attempts to drag Bulgaria's name in the matter.”

He made his comments after holding talks with Prime Minister Najib Miqati in Bulgaria, who said that the Bulgarian government is conducting a professional investigation in July's Burgas airport in Bulgaria.

He stressed: “No accusation in the bombing will be made without sufficient evidence.”

Miqati added: “We condemn the bombing and all terrorist attacks that target civilians.”

He revealed that his talks with Bulgarian officials did not address the investigation.

Israel blamed Iran and Hizbullah for the July 18 suicide bus attack at the Black Sea airport of Burgas that killed five Israeli tourists and their Bulgarian driver and wounded more than 30 people.

The Pentagon said in July that there are signs that Hizbullah may have orchestrated the attack.

For his part, Borissov refused to comment on questions about Israel's accusations against Hizbullah, saying that each side is entitled to its opinion.

He said that Miqati's visit is not linked to the Burgas bombing, but it was aimed at tackling bilateral ties.

The Bulgarian prime minister stressed the importance of Lebanon's stability and preventing the Syrian crisis from spreading to it.

On the Syrian crisis, Miqati said that he explained to the premier Lebanon's policy of disassociation.

“The prime minister expressed his understanding of this policy. We do not intervene in the affairs of others and we hope the international community will understand this position,” he stressed.

During his trip, Miqati then telephoned Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev, who was abroad on a foreign tour, to discuss bilateral ties.

The premier then traveled to Hungary on a one-day official visit where he is scheduled to meet with President Janos Ader, Speaker Laszlo Kover, and PM Viktor Orban.

Miqati and his accompanying ministerial delegation are scheduled to return to Beirut on Tuesday night.

Miqati is trying to get a heads up on the Burgas bombing and whether it will be attributed to Hizzbollah. The announcement of Hezbollah involvement will further destabilize Lebanon.

The Mossad has been on a false flag and entrapment framing spree. Bombings in India, Bangkok were also blamed on Hizzbollah. In Kenya and Cyprus Iranian nationals and a Hizbollah Member were framed ...

The Mossad has been training and using MeK and Jundallah terrorists for these bombing operations because of their Iranian credentials. The US recently took the MeK off their terrorist list.

In all of these bombings and "framings" nothing has been proven to be Iranian or Hizzbollah sponsored. India and Thailand are quite furious that the Mossad is using their countries for operations ...

It is curious that the FBI was called in for help in the Hassan bombing. The FBI has recently been busy concocting aiding and abetting false flag threats in the US itself.

I congratulate you for such a fertile imagination; I am anxious to kow your opinion on:
*bombing of US embassy, in April 1983, and October 1984, in Lebanon;
*bombing of US Marines barracks, October 1983;
*1985: Twa hijacking + throwing the dead body of US sailorman R D Stethon on tarmac, after having tortured him;
*1988: Kidnapping + torture + killing of US Col. Higgins...
were all these work of the CIA, Americans, and Israelis, also?
Please, leave the US, now, and go live in Iran...You will enjoy it more!

Very simple question, Nasrallah went on TV and spoke to the world that HA sent drones to Israel just as Israel sends their jets to Lebanon, my question is this, has the drones pictures or collected data from Israel been shared with the Lebanese Authorities or just with Iran? why is it that the Leb state needs a permission to enter HA areas and security controlled territories such as Dahyeh but HA can and has always initiated things with the permission of the Leb state. (i.e. 2006 WAR and 2012 Drone).
