Al Qaeda threatens Hezbollah over Syria
Al-Qaida recently published a harsh attack on Hezbollah, in which it calls on Shi'ites to leave the renounce the organization "if they do not wish to be the target of Al-Qaida attacks."In a recording broadcasted on Al-Qaida websites, the commander of the Abdullah Azzam Shaheed Brigade they claim 6k fights but probably have only a few hundred in Syria, Majd al-Majd, stated that "the claim that of the Shiite leaders that Israel and the United States are responsible for the murder of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Al-Hariri and for sparking the rebellion in Syria are baseless. The ones behind the murder were the leaders of Hezbollah, the keepers of the border with Israel." one reason for this aggressive stance is below The Al-Qaida branch in Syria is competing with another jihadist organization headed by Jordanian Salafi preacher Muhammad Al-Shalabi, also known as "Abu Sayyaf." In an interview with Saudi newspaper Al-Sharq, Abu Sayyef said that he oversees hundreds of fighters from Jordan, Iraq, Libya and other Arab states, some of which are "fighters from Al-Qaida who went to battle in Iraq," and that his organization "received the recognition of Al-Qaida." His organization claimed responsibility for several impressive bombings in Syria, while Al-Majd claimed his organization was responsible for those same bombings.
