Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Assad soldier admits Hezbollah, Iran fighting
2013-03-13
Hat tip to Hot Air.
Iran and its Lebanese ally, Hezbollah, are fighting with forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad in Syria, a soldier allegedly belonging to the Syrian Republican Guard said in a video posted online Monday.

Ali Imad Takla, who – according to the amateur video – was captured by the rebel Free Syrian Army told the opposition his brigade has been fighting in Daraya under the orders of General Yousef al-Masry using missiles, planes as well as canons. He added there are regime soldiers based at Souq al-Hadeed. However, Al Arabiya cannot independently verify the content of the video.

The FSA has accused Hezbollah members for attacking Syrian villages primarily in the region near the Lebanese border. Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah has admitted some party members had fought in Syria but on their own accord and not under his orders.

#9  Yummy words and heaps of 'em. Twistin and turning like we did last summer, only I wasn't leading the dip shit rangers into a briar patch of bad coffee and peanuts. We do what we must do, keep an eye and and an ear of Joe, prepare for gurl scouts in tankettes, fake sanity and prepare for the troll Apocalypse.

This shit is easy.
I only trust >>>>> Joe.

#7  But is Theater really Angleton9?

That's how I would have called it, Ebbang Uluque6305. He does have that same, drunk on modifiers quality, a sort of Freshman English writing prompt run amok after watching too many Hollywood Vietnam War flicks.

#6  However, if you can lead a platoon and know the price of Gold and can tell a CZ from a real Diamond you might stand a chance.

Oh dear. Among my many employed adventures, I once worked in the jewelry business. I'm afraid there are only two ways to differentiate cubic zirconium from diamond for the lay person: take the stone out of the setting and weigh it (CZs are half again as heavy for the size. Granted, that does mean our lay person needs to know how much the same size diamond should weigh, but let's assume he has a chart handy, amd the owner of the jewelry didn't just assault him for assaulting the jewelry), or stick it in the freezer to see if crazes. Our platoon leader is in trouble, I fear.

#4  Yeah. Hezbollah in Soddy Arabia? Can't frickin' wait. And all India has to do is sit back and watch the Pakis murder each other.

#2  Gadzooks, the eloquence of that wisdom almost brought a tear to my eyes.

I could not have said it better...maybe different but not better.

#1  This is wonderful news. Hizbollah and Iran are in it and their troops are committed? That means its going to spread and MORE Moslems will be killing Moslems.
Plus Jordan has allowed troops to be trained there in Jordan and the EU despite all the bans on nasty nasty is STILL going to find ways to add fuel and goodies to the fire. The place is awash in guns, the Turks are wonderful soldiers and everybody is going to need Tanks and expensive hardware. Obama won't last and who are the Donks going to run next time? The people that elected him CAN'T fight. They can just stand around with their hands out.

We got Wars in the near future coming up. No doubt about that. Egypt is rattling along like a Chicano cheap Taco carcrash with the doors held on with Chicken wire. Most of North Africa is terrified of its own and looking for an exit. This is the last Pope anyone will ever see and the Euroweenies are too queer stupid to defend themselves. The Vultures are closing in on them bigtime and they don't know it.
And in the USA its either California or Chicago with a useless constipated gridlocked incompetency for a government.

And dont look now but the Boy Scouts are feeling each others ass.

However, if you can lead a platoon and know the price of Gold and can tell a CZ from a real Diamond you might stand a chance. Too bad about your mother though.

See you in Church.
