H.E. Sayyed Nasrallah: Honored to Be Enemies of Bush.

Bush is called Great Sheytan.

Source: Al-Manar TV, 14 -1- 2008 Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah said that it was an honor for Hizbullah to be considered by US President George W Bush as enemy. Sayyed Nasrallah was speaking during the 5th evening of Ashoura commemoration. “I won’t hide it. I felt honored when Bush spoke about Hizbullah and resistance movements because when the Pharaoh and the Great Satan accuse us and consider us enemies .…… it is an honor for us,” his eminence said. His comments followed remarks critical of Iran and Hizbullah made by Bush during his visit to the United Arab Emirates.

Bush said from Abu Dhabi that “Iran is today the world’s leading state sponsor of terror. It undermines Lebanese hopes for peace by arming and aiding the terrorist group Hizbullah.” The Hizbullah Chief said that since Bush could not say anything about Iran’s nuclear program, the U.S. president accused Tehran of supporting “terrorism” in Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan. “Wherever there is resistance, Iran is accused of supporting resistance movements, and these movements, in Bush’s point of view are terrorists,” Sayyed Nasrallah said.

He accused Bush of supporting “the nation of terrorism, killing and wars,” a reference to “Israel”. “When a country like Iran or Syria support resistance movements that are defending their children, women, land, homes and holy places against the strongest country in the region, then this is a terrorist state that supports terrorism,” he said. “Who is trying to stand in the way of forming a national unity government in Lebanon? Is it Iran, Syria or Bush and his tools in Lebanon? I need to fair to some people in the loyalty bloc. I know that some of them, if they were left alone in peace by the US and other foreign powers, they would agree to form a national unity government because they have interests in putting an end to the deadlock. However, the United States is preventing this from happening because Washington considers the formation of a national unity government or holding early elections a blow to the US project, tutelage and interference in the political decision making in Lebanon,” Sayyed Nasrallah added.

His eminence also said that being a tool in the hands of this “Satan” and this project was humiliating. “When Bush visited occupied Palestine he dispatched a representative to meet with the families of the captured “Israeli” soldiers in Palestine and Lebanon. He was only interested in those three soldiers. However those who have families, wives and children…those more than 11 thousand Arab prisoners in “Israeli” jails who are held under harsh circumstances…they are of no value to Bush,” Sayyed Nasrallah said.

No peace concession Hammas warned.

Hamas warns Abbas no peace concessions.

GAZA CITY (IS IJ). Thousands of Hamas loyalists protested outside Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s Gaza City home, warning that violence would erupt if he makes concessions to Israel in a U.S sponsored peace conference. The protest by about thousnads followers of the group of Hamas. The rally was Fatah’s greatest show of strength since Hamas wrested control of the Gaza Strip. As the leader of the West Bank after he kicked Hamas out of the government and installed his own, Abbas has attended many meeting with Israel in last few month.

Hamas is not invited. In Friday’s demonstration, the Hamas backers chanted slogans demanding Abbas not give in on the major issues in the conflict. Khalil-al-Haya, a Hamas leader, warned of violence if Palestinian rights over the Al Aqsa mosque in east Beit-ul-Moqaddas are denied. Bloodshed will also result if Israel does not open Gaza’s crossings with the outside world, he said. Israel closed the passages after Hamas’ takeover of Gaza. “”We warn the whole region … against harming Al Aqsa, meddling with our basic rights, or tightening the siege”” on Gaza, al-Haya told the crowd. “”We warn of a huge explosion, in which Palestinians will blow up in all places … No seas or barbed wire will prevent that.”” Al-Haya’s remarks appeared to be a veiled threat of a possible return to attacks.

Israeli security has predicted that Hamas could try to violently derail the peace conference if it appears progress is being made toward resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Fawzi Barhoum, a Hamas spokesman, said the rally was a message to the Annapolis conference. Hamas’ rivalry with Abbas’ Fatah movement and control of the Gaza Strip undermine Abbas’ ability to negotiate a peace deal on behalf of all Palestinians, and preside over a future state. Abbas has little influence in Gaza. Hamas has tried to cement its grip on the territory since the rally, rounding up more than 400 Fatah activists and announcing media restrictions and plans to limit public gatherings.

On Friday, Hamas said it had released dozens of the Fatah detainees but was continuing to hold and interrogate an unspecified number who were “”directly involved”” in the disturbances. Fatah says 450 people were arrested in all. New-York based Human Rights Watch called on Hamas in a statement Friday to investigate its security forces’ “excessive and indiscriminate force against pro-Fatah demonstrators.” Hamas had said Thursday that it established a commission to look into the violence. Human Rights Watch said the body must be “truly independent” and lead to the prosecution of anyone who broke the law.

On such a day in the year 61 of Lunar calendar, Imam Hussein (JJ) and 72 of his family members and friends fought against the army of Yazid bin Moaviya and were all martyred and their women and children were taken captives.

This day is a symbol of fight against cruelty and injustice by all means and devoting one’s life to lofty human values.

Ashura of Imam Hussain (JJ) in Karbala Iraq.

Number of “Wahabies mischief makers” have been arrested.

KERBALA, Iraq (INUJ) – Iraqi forces imposed tight security on the city of Karbala as 2.5 million pilgrims marked the climax of a major Shi’ite rite on Saturday, even a day after gunmen attacked worshippers and police in other southern cities. Police said sporadic fighting between security forces and gunmen from a Wahabies cult called the “Soldiers of Heaven” had broken out again in the cities of Basra and Nassiriya on Saturday. There was no information on casualties. Nearly 70 people were killed and more than 100 wounded in gun battles on Friday after gunmen from the cult launched nearly simultaneous attacks in the two cities. In Karbala, pilgrims thronged streets and narrow alleyways for the end of the 10-day Ashura ritual, in which Shiites mourn the slaying over 14 centuries ago of the Prophet Mohammad’s (SAWW) grandson Imam Hussein (JJ) near the holy city. Among the pilgrims were there was hundreds of men wearing white robes, who marched through the streets striking their heads with swords to show their grief at the martyrdom of their holy Imam Hussein ( JJ).

Blood flowed down their robes. Others beat their chests to the sound of religious chants. Medics carrying first aid kits walked through the crowd, ready to staunch head wounds. Imam Hussein’s death in 680 CE, entrenched the schism between Shiite peaceful believers and Yazid & Moavih’s followers, the extremists and so called Muslims of the time. The split still sharply divides Iraq, with tens of thousands killed in sectarian fighting since the U.S-led invasion in 2003. Although violence has dropped in recent months. Officials said 25,000 Iraqi police and soldiers were deployed across Karbala, 110 km (70 miles) south of Baghdad.

The security situation in Karbala is under control,” Karbala police chief Brigadier General Raad Shaker told Reuters. Iraqi helicopters circled over Karbala while pilgrims were frisked up to 10 times before they could reach the focus of the ceremonies, The holy Imam Hussein (JJ) and Hz: Abbas’s shrines in the heart of its Old City. Crowds, including black-clad mourners flagellating themselves, jammed into a courtyard that links the two mosques. I am very happy to see these security measures, but I am afraid something may happen at any moment,” said Jaber Yusif, 43, who said he had traveled from the nearby city of Hilla. In the northern city of Kirkuk, a bomb killed two Shiite pilgrims heading to a mosque for Ashura, police said. The governor of Karbala province said more than 2.5 million people were in the city for Karbala, one of the holiest event in the Shiite Muslim religious calendar.

A statement from the prime minister’s office said a number of “Wahabies mischief makers” had been detained after they attacked Ashura processions in Basra and tried to seize a municipal building. Security officials said. Police had thwarted similar attacks in Hilla on Friday by detaining 26 “Terrorists of Wahabies. The “Soldiers of Heaven” cult was once led by a man who claimed to be the Imam Mahdi’s (JJ), force in the name of an Islamic messiah like figure. A man who said he was from the movement told Reuters in Basra their fighters had decided to attack security forces on Friday because of persecution he said the cult had suffered from these Wahabi terrorists in Iraq.

Ashura has been a target in the past from Wahabi al Qaeda militants who view Shiites, a majority in Iraq but a minority in the Muslim world, as heretics. The ritual was severely curtailed under Saddam Hussein a Wahabi Arab. Shiites have dominated politics in Iraq since his ouster. Wahabies are backed from Saudi Arabia and they are spreading the terrorism around the world. They are the worst enemies of Muhammed (SAWW) and his holy clan, following Yazid & Muawiah’s footprints those were the responsible of Karbala’s war 14 centuries ago and were recorded as mischief makers / wicked ones in the Islamic History as well as in the world history records.

Karbala and Holy Lord of the Martyres.

Imam Husayn [JJ] was slain at this sacred spot.

The historian Ibn Kuluwayh mentioned that those who buried Imam Husayn [JJ], made a special and rigid construction with signs above the grave. Higher and bigger constructions above the grave started during the ruling of Al-Saffah, but Harun al-Rashid later on, put heavy restrictions to prevent people from visiting the grave. At the time of Al-Mamun, construction around the grave resumed until the year 236 AH when Al – Mutawakkil ordered the destruction and digging of the grave, and then filling the pit with water. His son, who succeeded him, allowed people to visit the grave site, and since then building the precinct to the grave increased and developed step by step.

On the other hand, the historian Ibn Al-Asir, stated that in the year 371 AH, Aadod Al-Dawla Al-Boowayhi became the first to largely lay the foundations for large scale construction, and generously decorated the place. He also built houses and markets around the precinct, and surrounded Karbala with a high boundary wall turning it into a strong castle. In the year 407 AH, the precinct caught fire due to the dropping of two large candles on the wooden decorations, but Hasan ibn Fazl (the state minister) rebuilt the damaged sections.

History has recorded the names of several rulers who shared the honor of widening, decorating or keeping the precinct in good condition. Amongst them is Fateh Ali al-Qajari, who in 1250 AH ordered the construction of two domes. One over Imam Husayn’s [JJ] grave and the other over his brother Abu al – Fazl Abbas [as]. The first dome is 27 meters high and completely covered with gold. At the bottom, it is surrounded with 12 windows, each of which is about 1.25 m away from the other, from the inside, and 1.30 m from the outside.

The mausoleum has an area of 59 m / 75 m with ten gates, and about 65 rooms (I wans), well decorated from the inside and outside, used as classrooms for studying. As for the grave itself, in the middle of the precinct, it is called the “Rawza” or garden and it has several doors. The most famous one is called “Al-Qibla” or “Bab -al- zahab”. When it is entered, one can see the tomb of Habib ibn Mazahir al- Asavi (Reh), to the right hand side. Habib was a friend and companion of Imam Husayn [JJ] since their childhood. He was one of those who was honored with martyrdom at the Battle of Karbala. Chronology of Imam Husayn’s Shrine at Karbala.
