Army Thwarts Nusra Front Scheme to Enter Lebanon, Kills One

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The Lebanese army opened fire at dawn at a mini-bus transporting Syrians into the country through the Bekaa town of Arsal.

An army communique pointed out that the mini-bus "was trying to escape from a checkpoint set in the area despite being warned several times, prompting soldiers to open fire at it.”

The statement added that “one passenger was killed and two others where lightly injured.”

“The remaining passengers fled with one of the injured people while the driver turned him self in to the army.”

Earlier, media reports said that the driver of the bus is from al-Braidy family.

According to the reports Syrians from al-Nusra Front were aboard the mini-bus.

The al-Nusra Front, completely unknown before the rebellion in Syria that began two years ago, has been a rebel standard-bearer since mid-2012 when it became the spearhead of the insurgency ahead of the Free Syrian Army.

The organization has been blacklisted in December by the United States as a "terrorist" organization and makes no secret of its aim for Syria to become an Islamist state.

I have had enough with these punks from the Hezz running Arsal as if it is a country within a country. Don't you? Ooops!!! The Hezz is not running Arsal? OH, IT IS SANNI FIRST, AKA AL-MUSTAQBAL AL-TA3EES with the support of their SLAVES, AKA FARTS 14? Sorry folks. Now repeat after me: 7ORRIYEH. SIYEDEH. ESTE2LEL. LOUBNAN AWALAN. Once again, thank you Sanni First and Farts 14 for converting Lebanon into a biggest park infested with lunatics from all over the Sanni ma3moura and for bringing onto Lebanon its 21st century version of the Pales-Syrian problem.

Al nusra is a threat that lebanon must preapre to face, as any other, deployment of the army over the entire border is a must (i suppose that they r not isiot enough to use only the main roads) i think the army is capable of that...
The good thing is that lebanese population is not as fanatic as some may think; tripoli account for more than half milion citizen and verry few cover fanatics, enno i hardly see saad or alouch being fanatics to be honest...
The important thing is to do camps or provide shelter and assistance to syrian refugies, when people are starving it is easy to drag them to the other side....
Anyway well done LAF... Still a lot to do...

Missing imagine1979 25 September 2013, 11:56

And again southern hezbolla is a lebanese party like others, should obey the same laws than any other lebanese and should not hv any other perogatives... The security of lebanon must be assumed by lebanese official security agencies only... if it is not that will open the door for others to arm and protect themselves... if lebanese armed forces fails to protect the country i would really prefer a popular front to do so for exemple (harrass el chaabi) bc whatever u say hezbollah is a religious party with his own agenda, anw the armed forces showed they r able to tackle issues when given political cover so let's hope they continu the good job...

Missing imagine1979 25 September 2013, 13:29

Any resistance is legitime when trying to restore stolen land or autority, proven that it has support of the people... In that case a shiite party with official religious alegence to ayathola el khomayini (religious authority to religious party...) is not to be qualified as resistance...
I aknowledge the eole of hezbollah in fight the israely enemy in the south but i also aknowledge it's role in targeted assasination of other resistance leader during the war,so.... Not that clean history as u might like to think, but u southern u should know that, maybe if u tey to remember... And how is it that only shiite group can autoproclam as only resistant front and chose who can resist and who cannot?....
Again might be wrong, issu open to debate....

There is a lot of other fathers which are proud for their sons,but not evil like you.You call"Free Syrian Animals" those how are protecting their wifes,children,parents and grand parents,their dignety and their homes from the evil such Assad and HezboSatan and their Iranihellistan mentor?

"those how are protecting their wifes,children,parents and grand parents"

you forgot uncles, nieces, nephews, mothers-in-law, aunts, and gummy bears. but to protect all that they should first be in their own country. try libya, saudi, afghanistan, chechnya, egypt, tunis, the UK australia...

Come come now kitty cat. Theres been no proof so anything u say is just speculation. The Sakkir acusation didnt really fall through either as his phone conversations proved to be edited. Some western and gulf nations support the free syrian army with money and wepons but the same is done for the regime by different nations. Any accusation u have is hypocracy since u support Bashar. How is Al Nusra any more "terrorist" than Bashar? I dont support either. U sound like George Bush

The revolution is not described by what armed milicia says... Especialy al nusra and other nutheads... U should know this southern, hezbollah was originaly a milicia created by iran against amal and syrian forces there (a combat for power over shiite supremacy..) war spelled thounsand of dead and injured between them... Not so far from whabit, saudi quatary by proxy fightings, do u agree... I guess u don't but i find the similarity worth noting...

Missing imagine1979 25 September 2013, 15:53

Are u sure? I'm pretty sure the iranian gards supplyed hezbollah with weapon, many of them were originaly ammal members.... Still might be wrong?... Any journal from then?

Now how can this same party that is still holding the same banner(islamic resistance) can now be seen by lebanese as THE resistance... In the same way kateeb LF... Calls their militia then lebanese resistance (moukawameh lebnaniyeh)...
How a party that was raised by iran to fight for egemony with amal , who excleuded all other secular party from resistance, assacinated some of there leader (talking about 1980s not 2005) and chose who will resist and how by created resistance brigades (left by most over coposant then) how can it be seen as THE resistance by lebanese

Arsal, Majdel Anjar, and Brital have to be secured with checkpoints by the army and all their houses and caves searched. They should impose a curfew there and set up roadblocks and take exact inventory of each inhabitant and visitor.

FT and Wolf: You pair of stooges seem to think that you have a monopoly over patriotism. You attack the LF and support HA because it's a matter of patriotism, right. The countless thousands of LF fighters that gave their lives defending their towns and country against the PLO and Syrians were unpatriotic, right. The LF engaged intruders on their home soil and Land, they did not support or challenge anyone outside Lebanon. HA on the other hand, who you wankers deem patriotic, has sent fighters and embroiled themselves in conflicts that have nothing to do with Lebanon or its governments. Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Bosnia, Europe, South America, Africa ...must I go on.
Their arms are from Iran, they are financed by Iran, and will defend Iran to the last man standing.
Is this your definition of patriotism?

And when a certain leader stood his ground and would not succumb or heal knowing full well that he would be jailed or killed, versus a leader who took off like a jack rabbit in his pyjamas leaving his country and his men to die in the battlefield. Which of those two would you deem patriotic. FT and Wolf a pair of scoundrels trying to teach us Patriotism, please, for the sake of humanity put your heads in a toilet and flush.
