IS Militant who Monitored Leb Army, Badaro Pubs Arrested
2020-12-31
[AnNahar] The Internal Security Forces on Wednesday announced the arrest of a member of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
jihadist group who had monitored a military post between Furn el-Chebbak and Ain el-Rummaneh and pubs and cafes in Badaro.

In a statement, the ISF said its Intelligence Branch arrested the 20-year-old Syrian bully boy on Monday, seizing two cellphones that were in his possession.

He had joined the IS group in Syria’s Deir Ezzor before fleeing to Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
in late 2017, the statement added, citing the detainee’s confessions.

"Around two months ago, he communicated with two Syria-based IS cadres and told one of them that he intended to carry out a security operation in Lebanon for the benefit of the group. Abu al-Khattab agreed with him and asked him to secure an explosive vest, hand grenades and assault weapons but his arrest prevented him from obtaining them," the statement added.

The bully boy also tried to recruit a Syria-based person and downloaded encylopedias containing instructions on how to make bombs from material readily available in markets with the aim of manufatcuring explosives.

He also "monitored a military post between the areas of Furn el-Chebbak and Ain el-Rummaneh," the statement added, noting that the bully boy was living in that area.

"He also monitored a number of pubs and cafes on Badaro Street," the statement said.
