It is an organisation that learns quickly. The Hezbollah we met at the beginning (1982) is different from the one we left behind in 2000”. This is what the former Chief of Staff and former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Gabi Ashkenazi, said twenty years after the Israeli unconditional withdrawal from Lebanon. “For the first time we met a non-conventional army, but also an ideological organisation with deep faith: and this faith triumphed over us. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1484162887 1/10/17 An extraordinary Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) report circulating in the Kremlin today states that Federation electronic forensic experts have opened a joint operation with the Investigative Committee of the Republic of Belarus (ICRB) in order to “discover/ascertain” the “motives/intentions” as to why a 29-year-old Kazakhstan-American nurse [name redacted due to Belarus law] assassinated a highly respected Mother Superior on 5 January—and the following day, 6 January, one of her “patients”, a 26-year-old American man named Esteban Santiago, committed a still unexplained massacre at a Florida airport that killed 5 innocent people.

The Palestinian Authority arrested and interrogated some members of the network, which was comprised of gunmen from Fatah’s Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade seeking to make additional money from Hezbollah, PA security sources told WND. The security sources said Hezbollah sought to pay the chief of each terror cell $400 per month while each regular member would receive $100 per month in salary. The terrorists-for-hire would get bonus funds for each attack successfully orchestrated, with the amount depending on the size and importance of the attack and the number of Jewish casualties, the sources said. The terrorist network, the sources said, was the initiative of Qais Obeid, an Israeli Arab and a grandson of former Knesset member Diyab Obeid. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1437838626 July 25, 2015 A favorite whipping boy of Sulzberger's Jew York Slimes, the Lebanese Muslim military and political organization known as Hezbollah has long been designated as a "terrorist group" by the Israeli vassal states known as the United States and the European Union. Indeed, a Google Search for the term "Hezbollah Terrorist" yields an astounding 12,400,000 results. Those Hezbollah thugs must be some really "bad guys", right? A closer look indicates otherwise.   Hezbollah ("The Party of God") was formed in 1982 in response to expansionist Israel's invasion of southern Lebanon and brutal bombardment of the Muslim areas of the northern-central capital city of Beirut. The oh-so-predictable Zionist pretext for the invasion and air raids was "to fight terrorism". text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1421769148 text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1420047410 Dec. 22, 2014 Military equipment in Afghanistan is being detoured to battle different and deadly extremists.] Military vehicles used in Afghanistan may make their way into Iraq for use against the Islamic State group.

Sheikh Al Assir, the instigator of the street battle’s with the Lebanese Armed Forces, (LAF) has been on a concerted campaign to incite sectarian strife and division between the Sunni and Shi’a sects in Lebanon, with one major goal; to draw Hezbollah into a sectarian-based conflict. Many commentators on Lebanon have pointed out that contrary to his overt actions and rhetoric, Al-Assir does not enjoy a wide following or support base in Lebanon; he is a pawn that is being fomented and most likely funded by outside actors. These actors share the common goal of removing or weakening Hezbollah; a goal that is also synonymous with certain global actors’ – F.UK. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1341799996 text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1331698355 text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1299617969 text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1295538841 Informed Congressional sources in Washington DC on 1/15/11 are confirming that the White House has informed Congressional Committee Chairpersons and American allies that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) will indict Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s Wali al Faqih (jurisconsult or Supreme Religious Leader) for issuing the order to assassinate Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. The US and Israel believe Iran’s motive was that PM Hariri was considered a serious threat to Tehran and Damascus because their intelligence agencies established that Hariri was conspiratorially linked to Saudi Arabia, France and the United States—and by extension, Israel. Key Congressional leaders have been advised that the execution order targeting Hariri was delivered by Iranian Revolutionary Guards Quds force chief Qassem Suleymani to Hezbollah’s military commander Imad Mughniyeh. The US, Israel and their allies intend to back with an international media campaign, the STL theory that Mughniyeh and his brother-in-law, Mustapha Badr al-Dine met on several occasions and handpicked the team that carried out the assassination. Moreover, that Syrian President Bashar al-Aassad, and his brother-in-law, Syrian Intelligence Chief Assef Shawkat, also played key roles in organizing Hariri’s assassination. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1295116694 Soldiers, soldiers everywhere.

The leaders, who spoke on the condition their names be withheld, said they are fearful of a new assassination campaign in Lebanon targeting the country's pro-Western alliance, similar to the slew of assassinations in Lebanon in 2005 and 2006. They also said they are fearful of a major outbreak of sectarian violence. Separately, a source in Lebanon's pro-Western parliamentary alliance told WND that today's collapse of the Lebanese government by the Iranian-backed Hezbollah and its allies came after Hezbollah rejected a deal by Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri.

As hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees cough and slow-bake while inhaling rancid camp air in Lebanon's sweltering breezeless heat, the White House has now sent Lebanon's Parliament a message. The United States will not support meaningful civil, social or economic rights for the world's largest and oldest refugee population and it wants them naturalized anywhere except anyplace in Palestine. Many had been hoping that President Obama would honor in Lebanon his calls for "American style civil rights" for Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, where daily US military actions betray American founding principles. Or that his administration would act to give some credence to Obama's June 2009 Cairo speech or at least the pledges of Presidential envoy George Mitchell to the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah that "the United States will work without rest until the inhuman conditions of Palestinians in all the refugee camps are ended. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1281028569 The August 3, 2010, armed clash along the Israeli-Lebanese border was a significant strategic incident.

According to the report, the sum, based on World Bank appraisals, is aimed at covering the environmental and material damages caused by the Second Lebanon War, to neighboring countries as well. The fundamental part of the compensation demanded is for the damage caused to the Lebanese coast due to an oil spill following an Israeli bombing of a southern Beirut power plant, which the Lebanese said had caused "an ecological disaster." According to the report, Ban plans to submit a report to the United Nations General Assembly at the end of the month, stating that damage Israel caused to the oil reservoir polluted Lebanon's coast, and that the pollution spread to neighboring countries, especially Syria.

Siddiqine resembled a flattened moonscape in the bitterly cold and damp winter that followed, with more than 700 homes out of a total 1050 hit, and half that number completely destroyed. Mohanna lost two tobacco harvests from the bombardment and unexploded cluster munitions, and is now 10,000 dollars in debt to his bank. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1210362757 May 8, 2008 UPDATE 4 19:53 GMT - Accourding to Al-Manar TV, belonging to Hezbullah (the opposition), the opposition and Hezbullah  has REJECTED Saad Al-Hariri's 4 plan proposal.

These reports state that Israel had become ‘alarmed’ over this American spy satellite since its launching in December, 2006, (which the United States then reported had failed to reach its assigned orbit) due to its orbit which brought it over their secretive Negev Nuclear Research Center located at Dimona. The United States has confirmed the loss of their spy satellite, and as we can read as reported by the Associated Press News Service: "The U.S. military is developing contingency plans to deal with the possibility that a large spy satellite expected to fall to Earth in late February or early March could hit North America. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=1195092136 Defense Minister Ehud Barak approved on Thursday a list of civilian sanctions against the Gaza Strip as a means to combat the ongoing Kassam rocket barrages that have been fired at southern Israel since the disengagement from Gaza in August 2005. The decision was made during a special meeting of security officials in which he discussed the matter with senior military personnel, and it marks the first time Israel has scaled back vital supplies to Gaza since the cabinet defined Gaza as a "hostile entity" last month. According to a report on Channel 2, Israel will begin to gradually reduce the volume of electricy and amount of gasoline that is currently supplied to Gaza. The report further stated that the move was not meant to "punish" the Palestinians, but was simply a method of implementing the cabinet decision from last month. However, Channel 10 reported that Israel planned to cut electricity for an estimated 15 minutes after every Palestinian rocket is fired into Israel, leading to speculation of a direct connection between sanctions and the Kassam rocket fire. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=d71cbafc9e164f41793a5b21632c6348 The Israeli government has admitted for the first time that it used controversial phosphorous bombs during its 34-day war campaign in Lebanon. Cabinet Minister Jacob Edery confirmed that the army had used the bombs to attack "military targets" during its war with Hizbollah in July and August. Previously, Israel had said the bombs had only been used to mark out targets. During the conflict, doctors in Lebanon reported treating civilians who appeared to have been hit by the shells, which leave their victims with severe chemical wounds that can be fatal. The reports led the Lebanese President, Emile Lahoud, to accuse Israel of breaching the Geneva Convention, which bans the use of white phosphorous both as an incendiary weapon against civilians and in air attacks against military forces in civilian areas. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=42e8492ea9c7f6d9d178da561d079686 Lebanon is planning a beautiful new project for achieving permanent peace, prosperity and invincibility—to radiate this influence to the whole Middle East region—through the establishment of an Invincibility School where the students practise Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi Programme as part of their curriculum. To implement this much needed project, suitable land is being acquired for a girls' school to be built according to the principles of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda—Maharishi Vedic Architecture. During the past months, many sites have been searched and evaluated for their suitability in terms of the principles of Vedic Architecture—location, environment, cost, etc. After a long and thorough search, ideal land has been located in a quiet and pleasant area away from noise and pollution, and surrounded by beautiful green areas. The land is also not very far from Beirut. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.net http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/war/israel_lebanon_war/news.php?q=8cc22cbf36332981585c6769c5ef8fd3 Fighting Resumes Between Lebanese Army and Militants at Palestinian Refugee CampTRIPOLI, Lebanon Artillery and machine gun fire echoed around a crowded Palestinian refugee camp Tuesday as fighting resumed between besieging Lebanese troops and Islamic militants holed up inside, ending a nighttime lull. Lebanese troops pounded with artillery at daybreak the suspected positions of the Fatah Islam militants, seeking to destroy the group with al-Qaida ties or force them out of the Nahr el-Bared camp on the outskirts of this northern port city, Lebanon's second largest. A plume of black smoke billowed from an unknown target in the camp.The army brought in reinforcements from other regions.

Israel has also received $11.2 billion in loans for military equipment, plus $31 billion in economic grants, not to mention loan guarantees or joint military projects. But major conditions on these military grants have meant that 74 percent of it has remained in the U.
