bus bombing bulgaria Hizb'allah

The Bulgaria bombing would be the first successful Hezbollah attack in the West since the 1980s, police say

A bus bombing that killed five Israelis and a driver in Bulgaria was most likely the work of Lebanon’s Hezbollah militants, Bulgarian officials say.

The attack, in the Black Sea resort of Burgas in July 2012, was carried out by a bomber who died at the scene.

A six-month probe uncovered “obvious links” to Lebanon and Hezbollah, prompting criticism from Israel’s prime minister and a top US official.

Israel has always blamed Hezbollah – and Iran – for the bombing.

More signs of the presence of Hezbollah

Support in Mérida for people presumably                             associated with islamists

Labboun Rafic Mohammed, the Muslim cleric allegedly linked to Hezbollah and a fugitive from U.S. justice who was arrested in Merida on September 8, 2012, arrived in Yucatan services through a network of Lebanese government officials in collusion with Belizeans, who gave him a fake passport from that country.

As we reported at the time, upon his arrest by officers of the Public Security Secretariat Yucatecan government, Labboun exhibited a Belizean passport in the name of Wilhelm Dyck, a Mennonite child born in that country in February 1976 who died two months later. A driver’s license was issued in the same name.

Yesterday we reported that Razur Antonio Elias, the director of the Mexican Drug Observatory investigating Islamist organizations associated with Mexican drug traffickers and their possible ramifications in the Yucatan Peninsula, said that this group of people offered Belizean passports for $ 25,000, with a birth certificate and fake driver’s license. In addition to these documents, the group organizes the transfer of these people with forged documents through Mexican territory to the U.S. border, where the city of Merida, it seems, is key to the logistics.

The detention of a Lebanese with a Belizean passport has set off alarm bells. Although Labboun Rafic Mohammed, arrested in September in Mérida, is a radical Islamist hardliner and a er of Ayatollah Khomeini, the U.S. authorities had failed to demonstrate his links with Hezbollah terrorist activity, until recently. Tracks New data from this case, however, point to the possible presence of the Islamic group backed by Iran and Syria in some areas of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Obama Gives Hezbollah 200 Armored Personnel Carriers

It’s only fair that with the Muslim Brotherhood getting 200 Abrams tanks, Hezbollah should get 200 armored personnel carriers.  While tragically there was no money available to provide security for the US mission in Benghazi, there’s always room for giving billion dollar weapons packages to the terrorists who attack US embassies.

In 1983, Hezbollah carried out the suicide car bombing of the US Embassy in Beirut killing 63 people, including US soldiers, and wounding 120. The suicide vehicle of choice was a delivery van. But now Hezbollah will be able to attack the next US embassy in style with the M113 Armored Personnel Carrier.

When Hezbollah overturned the Lebanese government and replaced it with a coalition dominated by the Shiite terrorist group, backed by Iran, there were worries that this might prevent Lebanon from receiving US aid.

A U.S. congresswoman is warning that while the world’s eyes are on Iran’s growing threat against Israel, the Islamic nation’s terrorist surrogates may have already formed sleeper cells here in the United States.

Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., asserted in a radio interview today she believes it’s possible that Hezbollah, the radical terrorist organization tied to Iran, may be working with Mexican cartels to funnel not only drugs, but also terrorist sleeper agents into the U.S.

“Former [Defense Intelligence Agency] people and others have told me what is going on, there have been a couple of arrests in this country relative to people who have had ties to Hezbollah or Iran, and my concern has been with the drug cartels and the gangs that are operating in Mexico,” Myrick said. “There is, what I have been told, a very strong presence there of coordination between the two.

(Reuters) – Lebanese Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah acknowledged on Thursday sending a drone aircraft that was shot down last weekend after flying some 25 miles into Israel.

Nasrallah said in a televised speech that the drone’s parts were manufactured in Iran and it was assembled by members of the Shi’ite Muslim militant movement in Lebanon. He confirmed a statement by Israel’s prime minister earlier in the day saying that Hezbollah was behind the drone flight.

Last month, Yoni Alpert’s Terror Watch reported that Iranian Revolutionary Guards along with Hezbollah’s security apparatus arrested Hussein Fahs, who is considered Hezbollah’s CFO and head of the organization’s operational communications network. Fahs was arrested at Beirut’s Hariri Airport, on his way to an unknown destination. He and four other Hezbollah members were interrogated on suspicion of embezzling the organization’s funds and of collaborating with Israeli Intelligence. At the time it was suspected that they stole at least $5 million in Iranian aid funds.

Now it turns out, according to TW, citing Lebanese sources, that Fahs, a 29-year-old telecommunications engineer, a native of southern Lebanon, was able to flee the country, crossing the border into Israel.

According to official Hezbollah sources, Fahs took with him maps, classified documents and a large sum of money.

The news of the arrest was a major story in Mexico, but had little coverage on American or Israeli media sites. It should have.

Over the weeked, three suspected members of the terrorist organization Hezbollah, a proxy group for Iran, were arrested in the capital city of the Yucatan Province, Mexico.

One of the three, Rafic Mohamad Labboun Allaboun, 44, is a Lebanese American.  According to Benito Rosell Isaac, head of the Mexican National Migration Institute (INM) in Yucatan, Labboun had a warrant out for his arrest from Houston, Texas, and he was deported there within hours of his arrest.  He had a court appearance on Monday morning, September 1o, and then was returned to the San Jose division of the Northern District Court of California.

TOP GERMAN POLITICIAN CALLS FOR THE EU TO DO WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE DONE AGES AGO, BAN THE HEZBOLLAH NAZIS

Top German politician calls for EU to ban Hezbollah

BERLIN – Lebanon’s Hezbollah should be placed on the European Union’s list of terrorist groups, Philipp Missfelder, the deputy spokesman on foreign policy for Chancellor Angela Merkel’s party in the Bundestag, wrote to The Jerusalem Post on Thursday.

Missfelder’s call to outlaw Hezbollah is the first such statement from a senior European politician since the US and Israeli intelligence agencies asserted that the Lebanese group was responsible, alongside Iran, for murdering five Israelis and their bus driver in Bulgaria in July.

The Christian Democratic Union deputy wrote: ”It is long overdue to place Hezbollah on the EU’s list of terror organizations.” He stressed that Hezbollah “threatens the security of our ally Israel and is involved in countless terror activities and receives protection from the Iranian regime.”

“The EU should not allow any more time to elapse” before banning Hezbollah, he added, because “an organization that agitates against our friends in Israel cannot be accepted in Europe.” He appealed to Cypriot Foreign Minister Erato Kozakou-Marcoullis, whose country now holds the presidency of the 27-member EU, to take action against Hezbollah.

Hezbollah holds massive military drill to simulate raids into northern Israel, border clashes

Hezbollah holds massive military drill to simulate raids into northern Israel, border clashes

10,000 gunmen participate in war games reportedly supervised by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard; 2,000 Hezbollah fighters said to be undergoing training in Iran

Hezbollah conducted a massive military exercise in southern Lebanon this week, reportedly deploying 10,000 gunmen over three days in a war-game scenario and simulating the Shiite group’s role as an Iranian proxy in a potential war between Israel and Iran.

Reports of the operation surfaced in the Hebrew media on Thursday, based on an article in the Egyptian state paper al-Gomhuria, which reported that the exercises were personally supervised by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and by “top officials” from Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

According to the reports, Hezbollah simulated raids into northern Israeli territory and clashes in villages along the southern Lebanese border with Israel, which have been reinforced against a potential conflict.

The report also stated that some 2,000 Hezbollah fighters were currently being trained by Revolutionary Guard operatives in Iran.

Analysts believe that Hezbollah will be called upon by Tehran to open a front against Israel should Jerusalem order a strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.

The organization, considered a terror group by Israel and the US, has a de facto hold over much of southern Lebanon. While the Shiite group can shoot rockets into the north of Israel and has made covert forays dozens of meters into Israeli territory, it has not launched large-scale raids into the country.

The 2006 Second Lebanon War began after Hezbollah terrorists opened diversionary fire along the Israeli border, and then fired an anti-tank missile at an Israeli army patrol — killing three soldiers instantly and taking soldiers Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser captive. Their bodies were later returned in a prisoner exchange.

Last Friday, in a speech to mark Al-Quds (Jerusalem) Day, Nasrallah said Hezbollah would transform the lives of hundreds of thousands of Israelis to “hell” if Israel attacked Lebanon. He said Hezbollah rockets could hit any target in Israel, and that a small number of precisely fired missiles could “transform the lives of millions of Zionists in occupied Palestine to a real hell,” with tens of thousands of Israeli fatalities.

Hizballah’s Canadian Procurement Network

Posted on by

Hizballah has leveraged its worldwide network of members and sympathizers to secure financial, logistical, and other types of support. Procurement of goods ranging from weapons to dual-use items (e.g., night-vision goggles and clock timers) is a critical component of these efforts. In Canada, Hizballah has long maintained a robust network of agents able to purchase such items on the open market and send them to Lebanon. Matthew Levitt explores this network in depth in a chapter from a recently published compilation on violent extremism in Canada.
