Repots from Lebanon - Iranians involved in fighting

Two unrelated and independent sources report that Iranian citizens are taking an active part in assisting Hizbollah in its recent assault on Lebanon

Lebanese Minister Ahmad Fatfat said earlier today that the Iranian ambassador in Beirut was one of those involved in the direct coordination of Hizbollah’s actions.

American political commentator and blogger Debbie Shlussel reports that according to her sources in Lebanon, Iranian citizens were actually caught fighting alongside Hizbollah

Although Hezbollah has retreated–by its own choice (and it could easily return and retake)–from Beirut, the Iranian/Syrian-backed, Lebanese terrorist group is fighting in the surrounding hills.

My exclusive Lebanese Intelligence sources tell me that a number of Hezbollah terrorist fighters have been caught, over the weekend, and they cannot speak Arabic, only Farsi. They are Iranian and have identified themselves or been identified by third parties as members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

To those who are closely familiar with regional details and dynamics, these news come unsurprising. The presence of the members of Iranian Revolutionary Guard, acting as instructors in training the Hizhbollah terrorists and assisting them in building their own independent infrastructures is a well known secret.

Iran is the one who is directly responsible for enabling Hezbollah to build a state within a state, using Syria - its roads and sea ports - as a mere transportation hub for the equipment, weapons and explosives shipped to Hizbollah.

Earlier this week Security news portal Debka reported that Hizbollah received 35 new Iranian speedboats, just before the recent crisis erupted.

DEBKAfile’s military sources report that three weeks before Hizballah seized western Beirut, the Shiite terrorist group took delivery of 35 fast speedboats for use with explosives from Iran. The craft can threaten US Sixth Fleet and Israel Navy shipping close to Lebanese shores, reach Israel’s Haifa and Ashdod Mediterranean ports and raid its coastal oil installations.

The speedboats were tailor-made for Hizballah by Iranian Revolutionary Guards shipyards at Bandar Abbas as the only marine terror fleet operating in Mediterranean waters. Our military sources report the boats are capable of carrying chemical, biological and radiological weapons systems.

They were delivered in mid-April by an Iranian freighter at the Syrian port of Latakia and trucked to Naimah port south of Beirut. There they were hidden in the subterranean hangars belonging to Ahmed Jibril, head of the Palestinian Liberation Front-General Command. Today, the PLF-GC is financed and directed by the Revolutionary Guards. The hangars were constructed in the seventies by East Germany engineers with a protected Mediterranean anchorage and made virtually impenetrable by sea or air.
