Hezbollah-Backed Lebanese Shiites Fight In Syria
2013-04-15
[IsraelTimes] Masked men in camouflage toting Kalashnikov rifles fan out through a dusty olive grove, part of a group of Hezbollah-backed fighters from Leb who are patrolling both sides of a mostly non-existent border stretch with Syria.

The gunnies on the edge of the border village of al-Qasr say their mission is to protect Shiites on the Syrian side who claim their homes, villages and families have come under attack from Sunni rebels.

Hezbollah chief Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, leader of many of Leb's Shiites and a staunch ally of Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad
Despoiler of Deraa...
, has said his group is supporting the cadres of fighters who call themselves Popular Committees

It is confirmation that the powerful Lebanese Death Eater group is playing a growing role in the civil war just across the border..
