Ban Warns against Dangers of Hizbullah Involvement in Yemen, Iraq

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has warned that the involvement of Hizbullah and other Lebanese fighters in the war in Iraq and Yemen puts more dangers on Lebanon.

In his report to the Security Council on the implementation of Resolution 1559, Ban also said that the participation of Lebanese nationals in the conflict in Syria is in violation of Lebanon's dissociation policy.

“The involvement of Hizbullah and other Lebanese factions in the fighting in Syria seriously destabilizes the security and stability of Lebanon,” he said.

The U.N. chief urged the Lebanese government and the army to take the necessary measures to stop Hizbullah and other armed groups from possessing weapons in violation of 1559.

According to experts, Hizbullah has sent between 5,000 and 8,000 fighters to Syria to help the regime of President Bashar Assad.

There are reports that Hizbullah fighters are also helping Shiite militias in Iraq and the Huthi rebels in Yemen.

In his report, Ban lauded the efforts exerted by the Lebanese army to confront extremist groups on the eastern border, mainly al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State.

He called for unity among the Lebanese in supporting the military, which he considered as the “only legitimate institution in charge of defending Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity.”

To Whom It May Concern
I, the_roar, a well respected, heavily voted, liked, and admired shia poster (3rd generation Australian) on naharnet hereby declare that until further notice I suspend my membership in this forum similar to what MP Emile Rahmeh ( who got the highest votes in the last elections ) did when he suspended his membership in the Lebanese Parliament in SOLIDARITY with the unlawful, unjustified, and oppressive decision by the administration of this forum to ban my fellow shia poster Flamethrower.
Let it be know to all that such practices by management contradict with the basic fundamentals of the Iranian constitution and free speech in North Korea.
I remain,
Signed

As a Shia follower of Khomeini I will forgive & pray for those who insult my Lords, Sayyid Hassan Nassrallah and Sheikh Sayyid Abdul-Malik al-Houthi.

This used to be a nice forum where you could actually discuss issues. Now it's just spam bots calling others trolls.

When you boil the water out of the pan, even if you think Nassrallah is corrupt and a horrible man, what he is proposing is the only way forward at this point or else you will face Civil War.

I am here today thanks to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and thanks to those who kidnapped the Turkish pilots. I also thank General Security chief Abbas Ibrahim who planned, funded, and protected the Turkish pilots kidnappers.

As a Shia Christian, Its a debt we owe to HA & a friendship & trust to hopefully last forever.
I am also proud of HA for protecting the Shia Christians of the ME.
they even rang the Huseinieh bells in Syria for us Shia Christians after they expelled Isis from Shia Christian towns & returned it to Aoun.
May the righteous forever stand strong.

@Addikted (= addicted to Iran)

My loyalty doesn't go to KSA and I have no reasons to like KSA, while you are an agent to Iran. That is the DIFFERENCE.

I disowned him a longtime ago. He was always a problem child. We tried our best to raise him up as a Lebanese but he always aspired to be Iranian. I recall when he was a baby…. his first words out of his mouth were not Mama or Baba or Ughha …… but Aya-tollah ! He would wake up in the middle of the night and ask his mother when the Ayatollah would come take him to Qom. In the end, we surrendered to God’s will and accepted things as they were. Child psychologists informed us he will grow up to be the most sectarian creature. Well, it seems they were right.
