| Syria has 10 to 15 terrorists cells throughout Lebanon which are protected by and given logistical support by SyriaÂ’s allies Hezbollah and Amal according to French parliamentary sources. The cells according to the MP are similar to the thirty three member terrorist cell that was discovered recently in Lebanon and was charged by Lebanese military magistrate . All the members of this cell were part of the Syrian intelligence and were protected by Amal and Hezbollah . The French MP, who is a member of the national security and foreign relations committee of the parliament and who has access to sensitive intelligence reports said that the terrorist cells are similar to Fatah al Islam terrorist organization , that Syria tried but failed in marketing it as part the Al Qaeda network. The Lebanese army fought Fatah al Islam terrorist at the Nahr el Bared Palestinian refugee camp for 106 days last summer , the battle ended in the defeat and disbanding of the terrorist organization. Its leader Shaker al Absi escaped the battle and fled to Syria where he came from . |
