Syria a Terrorist Nation

[Note: FadlAllah is the chief Shiite cleric of the Middle East and is
the spiritual leader of HizbAllah. The chief sponsor of HizbAllah is
Syria who illegally occupies Lebanon and is responsible for the ethnic
cleansing of its Christian population. The Beqaa Valley in Lebanon is
under the control of Syria's ruling family, the Assad's, hosts major
terror groups and provides staging areas and weapons, and also
produces much of the heroin reaching the United States. For the United
States to consider working with Syria in a war against terror is a
Faustian bargain. - Anonymized for your protection]

Al-Liwaa’ Daily September 17 2001 C.E.
In his first interview following the Attacks in Washington and New
York Sayyed Fadlullah says to Al-Liwaa’ Daily:

The American administration is in a state a weightlessness.  Islam
rejects terrorism regardless of its source, but we must differentiae
between terrorist and liberation movements. 

Following are excerpts from the interview:

Q: How do you read the suicide bombings in New York and Washington?

A: When you analyze an event of this magnitude, you have to study the
policies of the major power (America) and the frustrations and anger
they generate as a result of their oppressive nature.  These policies
have generated a state of hatred among the weakened whether Muslim or
not.  Moreover one cannot exclude those in America and Europe who
demonstrated against globalization and the super powers.  Therefore,
what happened in America is related to the oppressive policies of the
U.S.  in the third world and the Middle East in particular.  The present
administration has supported Israel in a rude manner, and gave Sharon a
freehand to wipe out the Palestinian people. 

On the other hand, America itself is the country of terrorism.  I am not
talking about the organized terror of the stat, but about the level of
crime in the American society, as well as the existence of irrational
terrorist organizations, like the one that bombed the state building in
Oklahoma of which the Arabs and Muslims were initially accused. 

Q: How do you explain that the Muslims and Arabs were accused as soon
as the news broke out?

A: There are two reasons.

First: The American Media is controlled by the Zionists, and those
Zionists chose a name that is well known in the West to pronounce as a
[terrorist]. 

The Second: The American officials, especially those in charge of
security, felt that the Americans and the world public opinion were
demanding the disclose the identity of those who executed the operation
so they decided to give them.  a Muslim and Arab name. 

Q: How do you view the bombing from the religious and political points
of view?

A :from the point of view of Islamic law, there is nothing that
justifies these acts, for they are targeting innocents, as a result of
political differences.  That is why I said that these are suicide
operations and not martyr ones. 

On the political level, I cannot envisage that such an action could be
beneficial.  Because as things turned out, they made America enjoy the
support of all the world including Arab and Muslim states and even
religions cultural and political institutions.  The noise and smoke
those operations had made veiled the American hostile policies in the
eyes of the world. 

Some people might think that such a blow will tempt America to review
its policies, but this is not the case, as America is now like an
injured bell whose reaction will be more brutal and violent. 

Q: What is the difference between targeting civilians in Israel and in
America?

A: there is a big difference; in Palestine it is a question of self –
defense being the only way the Palestinians can drive the Israelis
into a security impasse.

Q: Where do you think will the battlefield be?

A: I believe that America knows that it cannot end terrorism whatever
it does, therefore what America is trying to do now in restoring its
pride and its ability to radiate fear. America thus will look for any
enemy and strike him, and it will probably choose a weak enemy to
intimidate the stronger ones.

I also believe that NATO is looking now for ways to settle its
accounts with several countries.

slogan of war against terrorism to wage a war against the weakened
peoples and the Third World.
