The MSM never gets things right, as they comment vaguely about ‘some terrorist who died in Syria yesterday’
In fact, Imad Mughniyeh’s death is a tremendous breakthrough in the war on terror, for many reasons.
(1) He was a mortal enemy of the U.S., killing hundreds in multiple bombings and shootings. He kidnapped and slowly tortured the CIA Beirut station head to death, viciously and painfully, in the way that only psychopaths do. Reagan and the whole American people lived through the mournful days in 1983, when 250 Marines died in Beirut, trying to keep the peace. Mughniyeh organized that bombing, as well as the U.S. embassy bombing that same year.
(2) Mughniyeh was also a mortal enemy of Israel for multiple kidnappings, bombings, and murders. (3) He was a vital and very senior agent of Iran, which sent their foreign minister, Mottaki to read a statement at the funeral from Ahmadinejad. "He's not the first martyr, nor will he be the last on this path...there will be hundreds and millions more." Most of those who attended the funeral today belong in jail.
(4) As one of the main organizing forces behind Hizbullah, he shares responsibility for the 2006 war with Israel, the multiple assassinations against democratic Lebanese leaders, and the multiple terror threats against Lebanese democracy.
Hizbullah itself says this is a huge and heavy blow for them. Nasrallah, their greasy putrid political leader, has now declared 'war' (this is new?). He is still living in a hole in the ground to avoid being assassinated himself.
(5) Today, a short distance away from Mughniyeh's funeral, 1.5 MILLION Lebanese
celebrated, in rain and cold, their independence from Syria. This
joy of growing liberty, a nascent democracy, and freedom from civil war
has only occurred because of the successes in the the US-led war on
terror. This is Lebanese democracy, done their way. The main pro-democracy group is an alliance between Christians, Druze, and Sunni Muslims.
(6) The US and/or Israeli strike which killed Mughniyeh did so right near the Syrian Intelligence headquarters in Damascus. It has been clear for years that the only way to get Assad, the president of Syria, to leave Lebanon alone, is to hang a Damoclean sword over his head. (Damocles sinned against the gods, and spent eternity in Hades with a sword poised above his head, suspended by a hair.)
This action makes it clear that the anti-terror alliance can bomb Syrian intelligence headquarters anytime they want. (7) Assad himself should now feel vulnerable to assassination. (8) Many other terrorist groups are based in Damascus, and they are also now vulnerable to targeted killings.
(9) Imad Mughniyeh was promoted to supreme commander of Hizbullah in 2006. Nazrallah was demoted to political leader. Mughniyeh also had multiple meetings with Al Qaida. He was observed to be in contact with Mohammed Atta just prior to 9/11. No matter what they discussed, it was not good.
It’s time for Imad Mughniyeh to find out that there are no virgins, no little green birds, no paradise, nothing for him. Just billions of humans striving hard to remove all trace that he ever existed.
