More Arab Israelis arrested for smuggled Hezbollah weapons, wanted them for gang war

More on this story from yesterday.
[AnNahar] Israel’s internal security agency, the Shin Bet, has said that four Arab Israeli citizens have been arrested in a joint operation with the police and the Israeli army over the possession of a large amount of "high quality" Iranian-made weapons including two bombs.

One of the men had been in contact with an operative of 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...
-based Hezbollah, the agency said.

The suspects who were arrested in July were identified as Jalal Khursa, 28, Ahmed Issa, 30, and Muhammed Issa, 39, from Kafr Qasim, and Nuh Assam, 30, from Lod. They were indicted on Thursday on weapons offenses.

The security officials said the weapons were meant to be used to kill a rival gang leader as part of ongoing battles between crime gangs in Arab towns but were obtained using the smuggling routes of "terror organizations."

The investigation revealed that Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
was arming criminal gangs with military-grade bombs, the agency added.

In a raid on a home in Lod, other Israelis who were intending to use one of the bombs were detained. The security services said their investigation revealed that a Hezbollah operative enlisted Israelis to establish and operate a smuggling route for weapons and to disseminate them to criminal gangs, among others.

A Shin Bet official said that "once again the efforts of Iran and its proxy the Hezbollah group attempted to use Israelis in their acts of aggression against Israel."

"This also shows how fine the line is between criminal activity and terrorism," he added.
