Contrary to reports of Hizballah attacks on villages in the Homs region, the thousand Hizballah militiamen have moved in to defend the predominantly Shiite villages of the area whose population is loyal to Bashar Assad. They are there to relieve the SYRIAN army of the burden of defending these Shiites against rebel attack.<br />Hizballah has also undertaken to guard Shiite holy shrines in SYRIA.</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><br /></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">2.  The Muslim factions of the SYRIAN revolt have received their first heavy weapons consignments, mostly Kornet and Fagot anti-tank missiles. Their improved armaments account for the new edge they display in battles with Bashar Assad’s army, although reports of their conquests are much exaggerated.</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><br /></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">3.  These arms are coming from two sources: radical Islamist organizations in BOSNIA and KOSOVO, some of them associated with al Qaeda – at least ideologically. It is hard to say who is organizing and bankrolling the new weapons sea route to SYRIA. According to one theory, it is the ALBANIAN mafia. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">(See: </span><span style="color: blue;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">THE AL QAEDA FACTOR IN ALBANIA, </span></b></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"><a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com.ar/2013/01/the-balkans-organized-crime-radical.html">http://news-these-days.blogspot.com.ar/2013/01/the-balkans-organized-crime-radical.html</a>)</span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"><br /></span></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="266" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EjcAjqcI04I?feature=player_embedded" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="320"></iframe></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"><br /></span></b></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><br /></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">4.

The Jabhat al-Nusra, newly armed with hardware from BOSNIA and KOSOVO, have pushed across the border into LEBANON, our sources reveal, and are harassing Hizballah in its home bases in the Beqaa Valley. Night after night in the last ten days, small bands of Islamist fighters, weighed down by heavy loads of rockets, are attacking Hizballah strongholds and isolated guard and watch posts and ambushing military vehicles.</span></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">Both are designated terrorist groups by the UNITED STATES government.</span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;"><br />The SYRIAN conflict has indeed spilled over the border into LEBANON.
