Agents seized at border, while Iranians ID targets to ‘end Anglo-Saxon civilization’
Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah
WASHINGTON – The Iranian-sponsored terrorist organization Hezbollah’ threats to attack U.S. interests around the world are being taken seriously by U.S. law enforcement and intelligence officials who say the group’s agents have attempted illegal entry into the country through the southern border and have staked out 20 potential sensitive targets that Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad boasted could “end Anglo-Saxon civilization”.
We have 2,000 volunteers who have registered since last year,” Hezbollah spokesman Mojtaba Bigdeli told Reuters yesterday. “They have been trained and they can become fully armed. We are ready to dispatch them to every corner of the world to jeopardize Israel and America’s interests. We are only waiting for the supreme leader’s green light to take action. If America wants to ignite World War III … we welcome it.”
The “supreme leader” is Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei.
Hezbollah and Iranian officials are known for their hyperbolic rhetoric, but U.S. officials say it would be a mistake to dismiss them categorically.
FBI Director Robert Mueller confirmed earlier this spring that Hezbollah agents were caught trying to enter the country illegally through the Mexican border.
Likewise, James Woolsey, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee in February that “Ahmadinejad who is close to Hezbollah, says that he knows of the 29 sensitive sites in the U.S. and the West, which he has spied out and is ready to attack in order to, quote: ‘End Anglo-Saxon civilization.”
In May – long before the recent escalation of conflict with Israel – more than 100 “martyrdom-seeking volunteers” affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps gathered to warn the U.S. they would blow up American interests around the world if their country’s nuclear installations came under attack.
Mohammad-Ali Samadi, spokesman for a government-orchestrated campaign to recruit suicide bombers, said more than 55,000 volunteers had been registered, according to Iran Focus.
The group – called the Headquarters to Commemorate the Martyrs of the Global Islamic Movement – was established in 2004 to carry out suicide attacks against three targets: “The infidels occupying Iraq,” Israel and author Salman Rushdie.
In February, it launched a new recruitment drive to fight “global blasphemy.”
Iran estimated then that Israel would strike Tehran’s nuclear facilities within a year and has been planning retaliatory attacks against Israeli, American and British interests, according to senior Lebanese political sources.
Wild Thing’s comment……..
“We are only waiting. “If America wants to ignite World War Three … we welcome it,” he said.
If WE want to ignite it?!! Oh, baby, it’s already lit. Your wish is our command, oh foolish one. A whopping NAKBA to you oh Islam cult of death and destruction.
I’m still hoping that The West is just slow to anger. Attacks and killings in Afgahnistan where my son is in Sharana (a high school burned, 13 civilians killed), attacks in Kashmir, several dead, a young girl with her throat cut, attacks in the Phillipines with more civilians killed, 57 civilians killed in Iraq by “insurgents”,and the usual crap from the pig snounts in Iran.
Within a year, if we don’t dangle a nuke over Medina, Mecca and Teheran as a preliminary punishment for this human filth, we will have lost. The bloody monsters of the Koran aren’t being restrained by the fictitious “moderate” Muslims. Even American Japanese took up arms against Japan in WWII. The world will slip for a thousand years into the barbarism of Islamic rule unless these people are punishment beyond current imagining. There is no other solution.
So many “maybes” to consider.
These muslim clergy are the craziest people ever born.
If they caught some Hezbolla agents at the Mexican border, it makes you wonder how many have not been caught. I fear that one of Bush’s legacies will be that he did very little to secure the border.
And whatever happens if these crazies actively try to end Western civilization, I think America and a very few allies will carry the fight alone.
It is why I wish Israel would go all out right now and get a war started with Syria. The turmoil needs to be taken to the instigators, not the other way around.
Rhod you right, this is not the time to be listening to anyone that is not determined to get rid of this evil killing virus.
When I sat here waiting to see the response of our country about Israel, I was thinking this is wrong. There should be no doubt in my heart as to what our Nation would do. And it is the same with Iraq and Afghanistan. THat scared me as much as the terrorists, that I would have to wonder and be concerned as to our answer to the enemy.
I agree so much, if we don’t do it right we will have lost and it will be too late. Also what you said about the Japanese too excellent point Rhod. Thank you.
Tom they sure are crazy I agree.
I felt so stupid when I found out that the President of these countries are not really the person that holds all the ultimate power but the clergy guy is . I had to learn it back when the Marine’s were attacked in Lebanon. It sure shows how their Islam is even beyond government it is the government. Everything I learn about this wacko cult just gets more crazy.
I just don’t understand and never will how a President really does want to go after these people, but at the same time will not secure the borders. I would never head out to go after bad guys and leave my doors and windows open at our home.
Tom I agree too with you so much about Israel.
To win this battle we need to clean house in the Senate as a minimum, they’re the ones preventing a proper response with their obfuscation and intransigence, a mini nuke at the NYT will go a long way towards ensuring our freedom and that of the world.
Congress acts like piss poor parents that allow their children to run amok because the brats throw a tantrum and they’ll give in to appease them. We are not dealing with ill behaving children, but the spawn of the devil whom they will appease right up to the point that the knife severs their throats.
Amen Jack and a big ditto too.
