Report: Hizbullah Fighters Lately Entered Syria to Back Assad Troops

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah fighters have lately crossed the area of Hawsh al-Sayyed Ali in Hermel to Syria to help Syrian government troops in their fight against rebels, security sources said.

The sources told An Nahar daily published on Friday that the militants from the 910 unit of Hizbullah’s Jihad Council are fighting alongside the Syrian forces in the areas of al-Qussair, Homs and al-Rastan.

Hizbullah has also a strong military presence in the area of Zabadani, the same sources said.

The main battlefront is however in Aleppo where rebels fighting to topple President Bashar Assad's regime have brought in reinforcements as more government troops have arrived to take part in a generalized counter-offensive.

Meanwhile, an object that cashed in the Younine region of the eastern city of Baalbek earlier in the month was a Mirsad-1 reconnaissance drone operated by Hizbullah, the sources said.

The party was carrying out a test on how to equip the aircraft with explosives to attack specific targets by remote control, they added.

no, hizbushaitan is not lebanese since they have a declared syro/iranian agenda.
a lebanese has a lebanese agenda only.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 15:17

geha you're exhausting, debunking your false allegation is tiring and time consuming, and you keep making them again no matter how many times i explain to you.
NO they do not have a syro/iranian agenda, except in the words of anti-hezbollah propaganda. in facts, and in what they DECLARE (since you speak of "declared") their agenda is 100% Lebanese. having Syria and Iran as allies does not mean they are serving their interests, and to the contrary, syria and iran have been serving LEBANESE interests by putting themselves in danger to give us means to defend ourselves.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 15:20

and seriously, since when did iran need lebanon? you are hallucinating geha, whatever we have they have times 100. they dont need us to defend themselves, it's the contrary, they dont need us for resources, they have 100 times more, they dont need our land, they have 100 times more. besides supporting us, giving us resources and weapons, they have done nothing to us and got nothing in return. wake up, the worse thing is to fail to realize who is helping you and turning against him. if one day we end up alone dont count on the US to protect us habibi, they will let israel burn and eradicate us all without moving a finger.

Mowaten, stop pitching everything on Israel. If Hezb fighters are involved with Assad's troops, which let's not forget Ahmad Jibril indicated that Hezb is ready to do so, then this is plain wrong and is simply provoking a sectarian civil war from breaking out.

Ironically, these actions go directly against Imam Musa al-Sadr's teachings of coexistence and unity.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 14:12

gcb: i was only putting in perspective what he said: "How could the world sit back and watch such a terrorist organization and allow it to purchase advanced technology and mass such a massive stockpile of weapons,is beyond me."

this applies perfectly to israel, yet the world never acted against them. justice and compassion seems to be very selective.

Hizbushaitan and their fpm allies are driving Lebanon to destruction.
already israel considers them as a threat, what do you think will happen when the syrian regime will fall?
the new regime will consider hizbushaitan as an ennemy and will act upon it.
what will happen to Lebanon then?
where are we from the official policy of 'naki' they always talk about?

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 10:21

geha: how about m14 and hariri? wouldnt your words of wisdom apply to when they decided to get involved in the rebellion in syria? sending weapons, fighters, letting them use lebanon as a rear base for attacks, isnt that what got us to that point today? you can;t be so biased all the time, sometimes you need to open your eyes.
also, regarding your question about "what will happen when the syrian regime will fall? "
first i would say "if" the regime falls
and second it is obvious: the saudi-controlled salafi and akhwen will restore syria's domination over lebanon, and impose their sectarian hatred on us. it's not just the shiaa who will be affected, the christians are in the same bag, as well as the druze, the orthodox, and even the moderates sunnis who will have to submit to strict sharia rules.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 10:21

Thumb geha 27 July 2012, 12:24

Whatever mowaten.
the thing is you do not want to realize one important matter:
- hizbushaitan and fpm placed their bet on the syrian regime, and we all know it is just a matter of time until it falls totally.
if you realize this, then you should realize it is in Lebanon's best interest to change course and distance yourselves from this regime, and not help it, if for nothing, it would be just to have a future.

It is when the syrian regime falls, not if. A regime that has committed crimes against humanity according to unbiased NGOs is no longer fit to govern and will eventually fall.

As for your statement that the saudi-controlled salafi will control Syria, this is plain wrong. All indications show that the salafi presence in Syria is small, and Salafis do not cooperate with the Saudi government because this is against their ideology (they believe the Saudi regime is corrupt).

The root of the uprising is the same as all the other uprisings: a hatred against a regime that has long suppressed political and civil rights. Do not believe Assad's propaganda. What I explain to you is according to credible NGOs, not the US perspective which seems to shift so often.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 14:19

gcb: nothing is certain until it happens. the regime collapse has been announced as imminent for a year and a half now, but it's still there, and seems to be strong enough to reclaim terrorist bastions one after the other. it's a war of attrition, and we'll eventually see who has more resources to last on the long run.

regarding the salafis we can't fight the facts, do your research and see.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 14:19

wikipedia for instance:
"Egyptian scholar Tawfik Hamid says that Salafi's believe that Saudi Arabia's petroleum-based wealth is a divine gift, and that Saudi influence is sanctioned by God. Thus this extreme brand of Sunni Islam that spread from the Saudi Arabia to the rest of the Islamic world is regarded not merely as one interpretation of the religion but the only genuine interpretation. The expansion of violent and regressive idea, he continues, began to take global roots in the late 1970s, and is precisely due to the growing financial clout of Saudi Arabia."

I don't know, I don't know, this is a fatal mistake, Hezbollah should and must abstain form meddling. It must learn from its mistakes that meddling only weakens it and makes people hate it even more. Though I understand HA's worry, that it is a minority in the region, still, its energies and strength should be consolidated here, in the inside, in Lebanon. Now is the time for all of us Lebanese, to circle our wagons and find a common course. When destruction comes, it will not discriminate between who is who, violence is generous on its victims as the saying goes. Come to think of it, We Lebanese, if we had one ounce of patriotism, we would need no one to protect us or anyone to help us. We have so much strength within our own hands that it will be seen extremely foolish to keep ourselves so suspicious of each other. It looks like another wasted opportunity, Lebanese unity.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 10:26

phoenix: dont rush to conclusions based on "sources said.... check the article, there is not 1 reference to anyone specific, nor any verified or verifiable element.
hezbollah might have gotten involved, and they might have not. this report is too hollow to comment on.
however in the mean time, and this has been confirmed by many elements -including their own announcements and declarations- the saudi/m14 bloc in lebanon has been actively involved in the syrian conflict. they openly admitted sending weapons and fighters.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 10:30

personally if i had to guess (and that's the most we can do based on current elements), i'd say these reports are untrue.
first because assad still has hundreds of thousands of loyal soldiers, so he doesnt need hezbollah's men. and if ever he needed reinforcements, the pact of mutual defense with iran enables him to request iranian troops backup. (and here there is no comparison with the few thousand men Hezbollah has, iran can send half a million men if they wanted.
second point, from hezbollah's perspective, getting involved in syria means weakening its positions in lebanon, and i'm pretty sure they are expecting an israeli attack anytime now. that would be a strategic mistake they would never make.

@Mowaten
your thinking is flawed for the following reasons:
- iran and russia have been warned not to get officially(at least) involved in the fighting.
- so iran would not dare to do that, and if they did, then the result will be catastrophic regional wise.
- defections are on going at a higher rate now and the regime is weaker.
- hizbushaitan can still survive if they change course and deliver their weapons to the state, which will preserve the shias and avoid a war with israel.
- in case they don't, there will be a war, and time is running out.
however this time round, the outcome of the war will be a higly weakened shias, and what will happen later is still to be seen.

Missing gcb1 27 July 2012, 13:16

You are right that this report may not be true. But I keep going back on Ahmad Jibril's words, who said that after holding consultations with Hezb and the Syrian regime, Hezb would be ready to assist Syrian troops. Obviously Jibril's a man that has inside knowledge and wouldn't just spit such bold words out.

Of course, M14 is betting on Assad's fall and some of its elements are actively involved in Syria. But while I am far from supporting M14, I tend to believe that supporting a rebel group that seeks the downfall of a corrupt regime is better than supporting the regime itself.

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 14:02

geha: since when does iran and russia do as the west tells them? if necessary they will intervene, and russia is already ignoring the west, sending helicopters to syria and moved many ships near tartous.

also regarding hezbollah, we get to the same old debate that never ends: you say surrendering weapons will avoid war, i say war started when hezbollah had no weapons, and didnt even exist. it's their weapons that liberated the south, it's their weapons that makes israel think twice before attacking. if they surrender them you can already start renaming the villages south of litani with hebrew names.

gcb, maybe, and as i said above, it's not impossible. but as you say yourself "would be ready to" doesnt mean they are doing it, it means in case it's absolutely necessary, then they "would be ready to".

Thumb mowaten 27 July 2012, 14:02

finally, i agree with you that the regime is corrupt, but i dont share your idealization of those you call rebels. we all see how many of them are mercenaries, religious fanatics and foreign mercenaries. they are not fighting for the people, they are fighting for power, and i believe they would be much worse than assad. assad came out of lebanon in 2005, without a bullet fired, that day he stopped being my ennemy, i dont see why you guys want to drag lebanon into the war against him.

It's a shame for Lebanon to have Huzbullah getting involved in the killing of innocent Syrian people. It's also hypocritical when nasslalah says his party is not involved when indeed he's sending them to do what; kill fellow muslims. My concern is what repursussion would this irresponsible attitude has on Lebanon when assad collapses and he will sooner rather than later? Is Lebanon going to suffer? We had enough of wars and involvement in other people lives and time is now ripe for Huzbullah to hand over his weapons to the government and us having only one army protecting us. Only an army would make sound decicions on pur behalf, or at least would not be so politicised like Huzbullah.

Expecting the fall of the syrian regime, israelis started to find new reasons to feed their propaganda: What if Syria fail, how can israel claim in its speeches that hezbollah is getting more and more weapons from Syria and beeing stronger? So now they are pretending that chemical weapons are beeing transfered to hezbolla which means that when the syrian regime will crack down, hezbollah will be in total possession of chemical weapons, something that israel "absolutely reject" as said lieberman. So get ready for a new divine victory with the country this time practicallay erased. israel has always advantage in propaganting a strong hezbollah to justify the balance of powers.
