| [AnNahar] Security forces announced Monday the arrest of two Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... jihadists who had plotted to carry out attacks inside Leb. "The runaway Jihad Ahmed al-Ghazi was tossed in the slammer Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! by the Intelligence Directorate in the North over his ties to terrorist groups led by the runaways Mohammed Ahmed al-Satem, Oday Ahmed al-Moussa and others who move between Leb and Syria," the army said in a statement. "They tried to help him enter Syria to fight alongside the terrorist groups there," it added. The detainee confessed that under al-Satem's leadership, small groups were formed in the northern region of Wadi Khaled with the aim of targeting the Lebanese army. They sought to "attack troops and create an appropriate atmosphere for the entry of the IS group into Leb through setting up a security zone connected to Khirbet Daoud in order to seize control of Wadi Khaled," the army statement said. The IS cells "purchased weapons and prepared a number of caves to be launchpads for their operations," it added. Among the arms they bought was a "mortar cannon aimed at targeting the army barracks in Wadi Khaled." The detainee al-Ghazi also confessed that he was tasked with "carrying out a suicide kaboom in Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... or Beirut." "Along with Tareq Mohammed Obeid, they tried to enter into Arsal and then into its outskirts with the aim of joining IS holy warriors there," the army added. Meanwhile, ...back at the pond, the enormous newt was trying to decide if Gloria was edible... the General Security announced the arrest of the Syrian M. M. on charges of "involvement in terrorist activities, belonging to the terrorist IS group, and recruiting holy warriors to be sent to Syria to fight alongside the group." "He also confessed to preparing to set up armed cells to carry out acts of sabotage in Leb in coordination with a Lebanese IS official in (Syria's) Raqa," a General Security statement said. The man also took part in "overseeing and coordinating the moves of the holy warriors in the latest Tripoli battles against the Lebanese army, in addition to harboring gunnies fleeing the aforementioned festivities." On Thursday, the army reportedly arrested four IS suspects after intercepting their van on the Zalka-Beirut highway. Dozens of suspects were arrested across the country in recent weeks. The massive crackdown followed an IS suicide kaboom in the southern Beirut suburb of Bourj al-Barajneh that killed 44 people and maimed around 240 others. |
