Hizbullah Denies Party Member Detained in Damascus
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Hizbullah denied on Monday that the Free Syrian Army captured a member of the party in Damascus, Hizbullah's media relations department said.
“Al-Arabiya news channel reported that the FSA detained a member of Hizbullah identified as Sayyed Hassan Salim al-Meqdad. The party denies these claims,” said the statement.
Al-Arabiya reported earlier that the FSA was able to detain a member of Hizbullah who allegedly entered Syria within a group of 1,500 people who spread in Damascus, Aleppo and Homs.
The channel aired a video showing al-Meqdad confessing that Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah ordered him to head to Syria to “support the Shiite Syrian regime” against “the Sunni gunmen known as the FSA.”
Al-Meqdad, who is allegedly a sniper, noted that he hadn’t infiltrated to Syria through illegal crossings, saying he was offered all the facilities on the border.
“We were a group of 250 in Damascus and resided in the Shrine of Sayeda Zeinab,” he said.
He confessed most of the snipers are being trained in the eastern Lebanese city of Baalbek.
Al-Meqdad urged Nasrallah to “halt his scourge of the Syrian people, who is only seeking freedom and a dignified life.”

the plans of the axis of evil (the syro/iranians and allies) are failing again and again.
their evil doings are being uncovered daily, and the result on them will be really hard, as they will have to pay dearly for all these evils doings.
hizbushaitan is driving the shiite community and his allies fpm down the drain with massive retaliation coming soon. they do not have a friend left in the region.

Geha,
Please. are you taking the claims of a beat up kidnapped man surrounded by guns seriously? Is this honestly considered credible proof that Hezb is involved in Syria? Give me a break. Anyone knowledgable about Hezb's organizational structure and has read multiple articles and credible books about it would know that this type of assistance is not the way Hezb operates.
And before you all jump to conclusions, I'm not a so-called "Assad sympathizer". In fact, I find him a criminal much more than you do. But let us please not dumb down our analysis and be objective with our views. Look at the credible evidence before we jump to conclusions.

@mowaten,
I agree with you that this claim should not be taken seriously. Those who take the confession of a man beat up and surrounded by weapons simply should be ignored.
Nonetheless, I don't believe Gaza is our problem to fight so long as we have our own divisive problems.

"hezbollah never denied it, to the contrary" is being able to lie mandatory to become the mouthpiece for groundhog hassan?
to correct you mowaten soureh, when the story broke of a hezballah member aliased mansour hezballah first denied but then when sami chehab his real name was revealed hassan the groundhog gave a speech admitting chehab was a member of his terrorist group what else was he going to do.

It's quite logical for Huzbullah to come to the rescue of its ally in Syria. The Syrian had been helping out Huzbullah gain power and dominate in Lebanon and likewise Huzbullah is reciprocating. Where's the amazement here? it's a tit for tat. Why should Huzbullah deny this. Everyone know the strong relationship between the regime in Syria and huzbullah.

How can Nasrallah seek Heaven while killing innocent people in Syria unless he considers non-Shias to be infidels and can therefore be killed without sacrificing the after life? Soon he will have his one-way ticket to Hell.

All oranginas who decide to tell the truth on this particular subject, hate Assad. Of course their master orangina the great feels the same way but for the sake of the throne in b3ada, he hides it for fear his Syrian master will not reward him.

the more the syrian regime loses ground the more hezb el fakih terrorists are captured it's the law of probability.

No credible proof whatsoever that Hezb is involved. Not even this one (a man beat up surrounded by weapons saying a confession is not considered proof to me nor to international law).

If it were SHA himself, hizbulla would never admit that he were from hizb--deny, deny, deny...reminds me of the syrians and the iranians who said that the kidnapped weren't revolutionary guards, but later were "retired".
I don't know if he is from hizb or not--all I know is that hizb lies to cover up which makes their denials less believable over time.

look at that the family of this terrorist threatening to kidnap innocent Syrian, Arab or Western citizens to trade for his release. It's the 80s all over again. Thugs belonging to a cult of thugs.
