Does Cuba Support Israel 's Annihilation?
“We have the heads, the hands, the feet and even a nearly intact cadaver from the head down to the pelvis. Our mujahideen used to fight these Zionists, killing them and collecting their body parts. I am not talking about regular body parts. I tell the Israelis, we have the heads of your soldiers, we have hands, we have legs.”By Pablo Brum
“We have the heads, the hands, the feet and even a nearly intact cadaver from the head down to the pelvis. Our mujahideen used to fight these Zionists, killing them and collecting their body parts. I am not talking about regular body parts. I tell the Israelis, we have the heads of your soldiers, we have hands, we have legs.”
It was Hassan Nasrallah , Secretary General of Hizb Allah, who made that statement the past January 19 th . [1]
The organization Nasrallah leads, is considered the world's most efficient terrorist organization, even more than al-Qaeda. [2] Its objective is the destruction of Israel , a country whose existence it deems illegitimate and that therefore must be reverted. [3] In order to achieve said objective it practices armed combat in its home country, Lebanon , and terrorism against Judeo-Israeli targets.
The harm Hizb Allah inflicts on the world is visible in two ways. The first is violence, its preferred method.
The war Hizb Allah started against Israel in July 2006 is still in recent memory. The conflict was sparked when one of its terrorist cells crossed the border and attacked an Israeli military unit. Aside from killing several soldiers, they kidnapped two others – who remain in captivity to this day. That strike not being enough, Hizb Allah fired heavy artillery (Soviet-made Katyusha batteries) against Israeli towns in the area. [4]
The group used the Israeli response, which was an attack in Lebanon in pursuit of the kidnappers and as punishment against it, as an excuse to fire even more missiles at Israel 's cities. The country was terrorized for several weeks, and it suffered numerous civilian victims. Meanwhile, Israeli forces were suffering unnecessary losses in order to protect the Lebanese civilian population, which in turn was harboring Hizb Allah's “militants”, as the press calls them.
In addition to such acts, the group is also dedicated to training other terrorists, including some who are operating in Iraq . [5] It is also openly known that Hizb Allah is financed, trained and directed by Iran , Shia Islam's greatest power. [6]
It is not necessary to stray that far to see what Hizb Allah activities entail. In 1992 and 1994, Islamic terrorists respectively destroyed the Israeli Embassy and the headquarters of AMIA [7] , both in Buenos Aires . According to the investigations performed so far, the ultimate culprit for the attack is Iran [8] – but its perpetrator is Hizb Allah, through its connections with Lebanese communities in South America . In total, between both acts of “resistance against Zionist occupation”, 114 civilians were murdered.
The second way in which Hizb Allah “works” is by influencing political, economic and social life in Lebanon . The press, obsessed with neutrality, calls it “charity” and assisting the needy. An informed observer will quickly understand that Hizb Allah buys out entire Lebanese families, in order to count on those homes as shelters and its men as fighters. [9]
Additionally, the so-called education Hizb Allah provides to Lebanon consists of indoctrination in Islamic totalitarianism, under the premise of Jihad . The Party of God spreads its fierce anti-Semitism to the entire Islamic world through its infamous television channel, Al- Manar .
Hizb Allah's genocidal wishes are so well-known that it is hard to single one out, but Nasrallah statements such as the following may be highlighted: “ I am against any reconciliation with Israel . I do not even recognize the presence of a state that is called ' Israel . I consider its presence both unjust and unlawful ” [10] or “ If we searched the entire world for a person more cowardly, despicable, weak and feeble in psyche, mind, ideology and religion, we would not find anyone like the Jew. Notice, I do not say the Israeli. ”
In fact, the group has gone on a limb even for those who justify Hizb Allah violence based on an imaginary Israeli occupation, and bothered to explain things such as:
“ If they go from Shebaa , we won't stop fighting them. ... Our goal is to liberate the 1948 borders of Palestine (…) The Jews who survive this war of liberation can go back to Germany or wherever they came from. ” [11]
Al- Manar , which has shows entirely dedicated to debating the best way of destroying Israel , frequently broadcasts panelist-uttered phrases to the Islamic world such as: “ we too should fight the Jews and burn them ” [12] or “ Our war is against the Jews (…) the Jewish occupation of the West resembles a cancer (…) As far as I'm concerned, Judaism is not a religion. Judaism is a criminal and dangerous mafia. ” [13]
This egregious international group is the most recent friend of Cuba 's Communist regime. The island's own press reported that Darío Urra , the Castros ' ambassador to Lebanon , met with Nawaf Moussawi , the movement's equivalent to a Chancellor. [14] The confluence of propaganda with Communist and Islamic ideology, which began in the Cold War and has exploded in recent years, is alarming.
The “Zionist occupation”, says the Cuban press adopting the language of Jihad , was what provoked the creation of Hizb Allah, a “resistance” movement. In this vision, just like Fidel Castro “liberated” Cubans from imperialism by taking over their lives and property, Hizb Allah “resists” Israel by murdering its children with missiles.
Naturally, the terrorist representative took note of the “blockade” Cuba suffers on the part of the United States – the same one that facilitates the import of 83% of food Cubans eat from that very country.
Totalitarian regimes [15] always attract each other in order to fight democracies. It is not new for Hizb Allah to practice anti-Americanism and ally itself with its enemies; it is also not new for Cuba to associate with terrorist organizations. [16] What this meeting clarifies is that Cuba considers Hizb Allah's efforts to kill as many Israelis as possible to be quite commendable.
