How many other double-citizenship "innocent" victims out there aren't in fact innocent at all, even perhaps being members of the Hizbollah? Likewise, how many of them have double-citizenship just to take advantage of it, having never stepped nor seen the second land of theirs?
This is a case I've just found out about a "Brazilian" Hizbollah fighter and his "innocent" family. I find it extremely sickening and disturbing, and question if it is wise to even offer rescue to these kind of people, Shi'ites! out of Lebanon just because of their opportunistic double-citizenship. Further, any family known to have a Hizbollah fighter should be EXPELLED from America, Brazil, Europe, or wherever to Yemen. My message to Israel: Kill, kill every single one of these adepts of the philosophy of the Hizbollah. Kill the young men for fighting for the Hizbollah, kill their mothers and sisters and cousins and fathers for supporting the Hizbollah and showing they do not deserve a humane treatment for they have not the slightest sign of humanity to earn it. A mother happy to see her son become an instrument of evil and happy to see him die deserves nor life nor death, but eternal punishment, the deepest suffering, unlimited pain. Fulfil their wishes, bring them the death they seek. These people spend more time thinking and worrying about their deaths, and the death of their enemies, than living their own lives! I cast an old (pre-Muhammad) Arab plague on the lot of these "innocent", free, sovereign, peace and love, people: May a thousand desert fleas jump onto your lower body parts and may your arms shrink just enough to prevent you from ever scratching them off. *** "Ibrahim Saleh, 17, had the passport of his mother's country, but lived in Lebanon since birth. Trained by the Hizbollah since the beginning of his adolescence, the young man dreamed with dieing on the field of battle and didn't make any other plans. The Hizbollah gained this week a Brazilian martyr. Ibrahim Saleh, 17, died last thursday while he fought in the ranks of the terrorist group against Israel in the city of Maroun er Ras, in the south of Lebanon. Son of a Brazilian mother and Lebanese father, Ibrahim was killed when an Israeli missile hit the car he travelled in with three other combatants of the Hizbollah. A brother of Ibrahim, 23 years old, also Brazilian, continues in the region fighting for the Hizbollah. According to the family, Ibrahim was attracted very early to the ideology of the Shi'ite group, and his dream has always been to die fighting against Israel. "He said he didn't want a common death, like in a car accident. He wanted to be 'shahid' [martyr], die in the war" said the aunt of Ibrahim Zeina Kourani, a Brazilian who lives in Tiro, one of the most bombarded cities of the current offensive. "They told us he had a smile in his lips when he was found dead". Shakibah, Ibrahim's mother, said she was not sad with her son's death, it occurred exactly as he wished. She gave a statement to the paper (read below) but preferred to leave further details to her sister. Proud because he fell fighting for the Shi'ite group, Shakibah received dozens of telephone calls from neighbors congratulating her for Ibrahim's act. "Everybody is calling and telling her thank God he died this way" said Zeina. Education for war Shakibah and Zeina are part of a Shi'ite family of ten Brazilian brothers and sisters of Lebanese origin, followers of Islamic laws and adepts of the philosophy of the Hizbollah. Of the ten, seven are in Lebanon. The other three live in Brazil, including a local councilman, Akdenis Mohamed Kourani, curiously elected by a party identified with another religion, the Christian Labour Party. Although he had a Brazilian passport, Ibrahim has never been to the country of his mother. He was raised in Tiro, a city dominated by the Hizbollah - as is the entire south of Lebanon. He never had any doubts about what he wanted. According to the family, he didn't even made any plans for when he finished school. He didn't thought about a college or profession. His fixed idea was to join the Hizbollah. More than that: he dreamed about dieing on the battlefield. "He knew he was going to die like this, that's why he never made any plans for when he grew up", says the uncle with a calm voice. Completely engaged in the armed fight of the Shi'ite Lebanese, Ibrahim had little contact with Brazil. The connection with his second country was limited to the relationship with his cousins when they came to visit him in Lebanon. Zeina says Ibrahim, as many Shi'ite children in the south of Lebanon, started very early to be trained to fight. He wasn't part of the Hizbollah's network of schools, he studied in a public institution of the Lebanese state, non-Muslim. Parallelly, in a secret fashion, he received another type of education. "They take the boys to teach and nobody knows anything, where it is or how it's done. Not even the parents." said Zeina. According to her, the conscript occurs when the Shi'ite boys are "more or less 13 years old". She calculates that there are around 30 thousand young men at the south of Lebanon ready to join the fight, much more than those already at the front line. Few, however, as young as Ibrahim. "The smaller ones are very few. Ibrahim was a volunteer", says Zeina, according to whom the nephew already wanted to go fight last year when he was only 16 years old. Besides Ibrahim, Shakibah has another son (whose name she prefers not to see published, for security reasons), who is also at the front line with the Hizbollah, and two daughters, 24 and 16 years old. Since the beginning of the conflict, the family does not know the whereabouts of Ibrahim's brother, who also has a Brazilian passport. "We know he is all right because he sends news, but we don't know where he is", says Zeina. To a cousin of Ibrahim's mother, Abbas Kourani, who lives in the port city of Sidon, the circumstances of the death of the young man are still not clear. He finds it difficult to believe the adolescent was at the combat zone as part of the Shi'ite guerrilla, despite his premature vocation known by everybody. "I know his brother was the most engaged, but Ibrahim may have been taken there and not been able to exit. What I heard is that he was helping unsheltered people.", tells Abbas. According to the family, which still hasn't seen the body, the funeral will be provided by the Hizbollah and should happen in Tiro, but only when the conflict ends." "Shakibah Kourani - I'm not sad, but proud. Since childhood, Ibrahim chose this path. All around him, it was also the path all his friends loved. He always said he was going to fight for his people and for every piece of land, and that, with the help of God, he would die fighting. And he did it. When they told us that the Brazilians could escape from Lebanon, he got very angry and said that was not going to happen. Two days before dieing, he came home, I think to say good bye to the family. He kissed the hand of his parents, kissed his sisters and told everybody that if he died fighting he didn't want anybody to cry for him, because that was his dream. And asked for us to raise our heads, because the Hizbollah was going to win this battle, and God is with our people. I am not sad, but proud. He died with his head raised, fighting. The way he wanted to." Quoted because you need a password to see the links. Quote:
