Ahed Footballer Killed Fighting in Syria
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
A young footballer who played in Lebanon's Premier League has been killed fighting alongside Hizbullah in the battle for Syria's Aleppo, a source close to the party said Friday.
Qassem Shamkha was killed "while fighting off a rebel attack Thursday on western Aleppo," the source told AFP, referring to the government-held side of the city.
The 19-year-old midfielder was from Burj al-Barajneh, a southern suburb of Beirut where support for Hizbullah is widespread.
Since 2009, Shamkha had played for Hizbullah's Al-Ahed football club which has won Lebanon's national championships four times, most recently in 2015.
In Lebanon, most football teams are financed by political parties.
"He will go down in history in the club's records, because he was a hero on the football field just like on the battlefield in defense of the homeland," Al-Ahed secretary general Mohammad Assi told AFP.
"He was a talented player with huge potential for the club and for Lebanon, but he chose the route of jihad," he added.
Several thousand Hizbullah fighters are fighting on behalf of President Bashar Assad across war-torn Syria.
Hizbullah has never provided an official death toll for its fighters, but monitors estimate that several hundred have been killed in Syria, including top commanders.

Yes he scored big, instead of taking a career in football he went to fight for the Resistance and jihad against your salafi takfiri rebels.
He scored many takfiri deaths too before being martyred himself.

@mowaten
What can one say, another E-X-C-E-L-L-E-N-T comment. I particularly enjoyed the part where you said " you will never have the satisfaction you hope for."
Thank you for making this forum lively and vibrant.
Still laughing since January 2015.
Thank you
Yours Sincerely

OMG ! OMG ! OMG!
Even on an article regarding the death of a football player in the homeland, I find you @mowaten spamming, trolling, and terrorizing other posters. What kind of person are you? New evidence surfaces by the minute that you are a paid poster but the question remains who pays you and for what exact purpose? Is it the Iranian embassy, is it the revolutionary guard, is it the syrian intelligence or the ex-KGB? These questions must be answered by you and NOW!

"his achievement is saving the civilized world"
and the confirmed follower of wilayat al faqih considers himself part of the civilized world.
Pathetic.

I immensely respect Mr. Mowaten because he considers himself part of the civilized world.

"He was a talented player with huge potential for the club and for Lebanon, but he chose the route of jihad," Assi added.
What Assi is really saying the young man's sectarian hate was stronger than his talent and love for life.
I believe the above summarizes the entire culture of hezbollah. Yesterday, it was depressing and shocking to watch young men at the Lebanese University ( it should be called Iranian University ) beating their chests and pledging allegiance to Waliy Al Faqih of Iran.

bless anyone person, entity, organization, brigade or country that inflicts extreme pain and unbearable suffering, death, torture, and destruction upon the iranian sectarian terrorist militia and its members, sponsors, supporters or followers wherever they may be.

How Sad..... How Awful..... I am devastated and speechless and can hardly use my keyboard.
Qassem Sham-khara of Burj Al Barajneh and Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal were two of my favorite footballers in the whole wide world.
Qaaem Sham-khara will leave a void in the sporting world and in my heart that can never be filled.
My heart felt condolences go to his family and friends ...... in Iran.

"He will go down in history in the club's records, because he was a hero on the football field just like on the battlefield in defense of the homeland,".
I guess I must have forgotten my geography lessons at school. I did not realize western Aleppo was part of our homeland.

our homeland is not an island, what happens a few kilometers from our borders has direct impact on us.

had they not been stopped in homs, qalamoun, quseyr, aleppo, damascus, the beasts would have been at our throats by now.

is Aleppo, Yemen, Iraq and Bahrain a "few kilometers" from your shia homeland? ISIS is in Ras Baalback closer than a few kilometers, go protect "your" homeland and show us your heroics.

Mowaten: Aleppo, Qusayr, Yemen, Iraq, Daraa, Homs, Libya, Damascus, Idlib, Saudi, Iran, Chad, Mali, Morocco, Tierra del Fuego, Tasmania... are NOT our problem. Lebanon should mind its own business and defend its own borders. We have the Lebanese Armed forces to defend our 10,452 km2, period. Hezbollah (and any one else) had NO business whatsoever going into Syria without the Lebanese government permission. Whatever flaws this gvt has, its official policy was dissociation from the Syrian crisis, and HA blatantly violated it.

To the contrary, this shows the fighters are not desperate losers with no other options in life selling their souls for a few pennies like the saudi and turkish mercenaries.
They are heroes on any field, be it a football field or a battlefield.
