Fighting continues to rage in Lebanon, where the Lebanese military steps up its tactics against militants who are conducting operations from refugee camps. Lebanese governments officials believe the Fatah Islamic militants are working on be-half of the Syrian Islamic Uprising. Others believe the militants are actually Al-Qaeda operatives conducting training before going to Iraq.Killed in Sunday's fighting was a high ranking Fatah member, Saddam El-Hajdib. He was one of the suspected train bombers in Germany.
The leader of the Fatah militant group is Shaker Youssef al-Absi, a Palestinian who was sentenced to death by a Jordanian court for his role in the assassination of US diplomat Laurence Foley. The actual assassination was conducted by Al-Qaeda leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and his associates.
If this isn't proof positive that Islamic radicals are conducting large scale operations around the world I don't know what is. Factional fighting in Lebanon has now been linked to Al-Qaeda and is drawing in the US and Israel as its victims. I do not believe we should involve ourselves with this fight. For the time being, Israel can defend itself against these ridiculous rocket attacks and although we support the Lebanese government in its operations, they are not a traditional ally and we should not give them any military support.
The enemy is resourceful and is taking advantage of other militant groups to extend their philosophies. We must maintain our fortitude if we are to survive the attack.
