![]() Hezbollah's CFO has fled to Israel taking with him large sum of stolen money, classified documents and maps, local news media reported on Friday. I'm going to The news website, Now Lebanon, cited Hezbollah officials saying that the 29-year old telecommunication engineer, Hussein Fahs, has crossed to Israel carrying with him $5 million in embezzled money from the group. Fahs is also head of Hezbollah's operational communications network. And a free trip to Ft. Meade In September, Fahs, who is native of southern Lebanon, was arrested along with other four Hezbollah members over the suspicion of embezzling the group's funds and collaborating with Israel, Yoni Alpert's Terror Watch reported. Who decided to let him out? Eric Holder? According to Al-Joumhouria newspaper, he was arrested while on his way to an unknown destination by 20 Iranian intelligence officers at Beirut's Hariri Airport. At the time it was suspected that they stole at least $5 million in Iranian aid funds. 20? Probably 10 and 10 watchers |

#3 Elsewhere in the article: "The eight arrested include seven women and one man and were all charged in absentia." Were they arrested in absentia too? Is Absentia a town in Lebanon? And: Fahs was arrested in September but fled to Israel with documents? Which was it? And: Arrested in Beirut by 20 Iranian agents? Those must be some interesting documents. So did he cross into Israel with the Iranians too? And do they have flights from Beirut to Israel? I'm so confused. |

#2 Cash, documents, and maps? Doesn't sound very high tech for a network admin. |
