 Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon Sheikh Nabil Qaouq says the US and Israel have decided to launch a new war on the resistance. The United States and Israel decided to "launch a new aggression on the resistance in Lebanon," the beginning of which was the assassination of Hezbollah's commander Imad Mugniyah in Damascus on Feb. 12, Sheikh Qaouq said on Tuesday. He said Mugniyah's assassination, however, backfired on the Israelis and the Americans because "the support for Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Arab and Islamic nations has been boosted," after the murder.

 A collection of works authored by Iranian-born Lebanese philosopher and prominent Shia religious leader Sayyid Musa Sadr has been rendered into Persian for the first time. The Tehran-based Imam Musa Sadr Cultural-Research Center -- led by Sadr’s daughter Hura -- is to publish four books of the 10-volume collection in the near future. Born in Qom, Iran, in 1928, Sadr spent many years of his life in Lebanon as a religious and political leader. In August 1978 Sadr and two companions departed for Libya to meet with officials from Qaddafi’s government. Sadr and his companions were never heard from again.Comments (3) |

That car bombing on Sept. 21, 1976, on Washington’s Embassy Row, killed Chile’s former Foreign Minister Orlando Letelier and an American co-worker Ronni Moffitt, while wounding Moffitt’s husband.Be first to comment this article |
