News reports are saying that Al Qaeda is also in Lebanon. What is interesting about this is that it really is not news in the intelligence community and it has been known for a very long time. Syria also has many Al Qaeda in their country. Although there are some turf wars with the Arab International Terrorist Community, when big fighting breaks out they observe the law of Machiavellian primate politics and that is that; The Enemy of My Enemy Is My Friend. Al Qaeda is financed very well and a lot of this money comes from the Opium Drug Trade, although there is money being funneled and channeled through various other groups and nation state sponsors. We know that both Hamas and Hezbollah are receiving hundreds of millions of dollars per year from Iran. They are also receiving weapons, which are funneled through Syria. Here he is known to have ten International Terrorist Organizations in their country. Suffice to say there are international terrorists organizations throughout the Arab world and especially in Syria, Iran and Lebanon not to mention Iraq and Afghanistan, as we well know. It would be great to rid the world of international terrorism once and for all, however this is no easy prospect. International Terrorists Organizations run very similar to well organized gangs, but financed a hundred times better. Please consider all this in 2006. |
