BEIRUT, Lebanon (CNN) -- A senior Hezbollah commander suspected in some of the highest-profile international terrorist attacks of the last 25 years has died in an explosion in Syria, Hezbollah TV said Wednesday.

Well this is very interesting. Very interesting indeed. I'm glad he's dead but I would have loved to see his trial. Any idea who killed him or did he blow himself up?

The US Secret Service aren't typically involved in extra-national affairs, and the KGB no longer exists.

I think he means the FSB.

Probably some kind of inter-factional affair, although I wouldn't rule out Mossad.

Israel has denied involvement. From my understanding, they rarely deny responsibility for assassinations. An assassination is as much about sending a message as it is eliminating the target.

However, Israel might have carried out this assassination at the behest of the United States. Which would explain denying involvement - Israel didn't kill him for its own goals.

There is the possibility of an intra-Hezbollah feud, of course. Or the guy accidentally blew himself up.

Finally, I might point the finger at the Lebanese. Realize that a lot of Lebanese do not like Hezbollah. I don't know if the Lebanese government has this kind of capability, but it could be a non-governmental organization, or even an individual who has lost family to Hezbollah.

No, the death of any person is not something to be "celebrated". Especially the death of someone whose guilt has never been proven.

Maybe the death of someone is at times necessary. Maybe even creates an overal benefit of society. But to celebrate death? No, never. The holding of life as something more valuable than that is one of the things that presumably makes us better people than the ones we are against.

I do quite believe that if one is to make public professions of faith, one takes the risk that others will point out when his actions do not align with that faith.

You said you were "glad" he was dead. You made the comment. I merely responded by pointing out such a statement was in direct opposition to the tenants of faith you claim to espouse.

That being said, if you believe that my actions are trolling, the moderation forum is but a few clicks away.

Meh. Not necessarily. "Extra judicial killings" (read: assassinations) would normally be carried out and freely admitted to, in the West Bank, Gaza and in the past Lebanon when they occupied it.

As this was done in a sovereign state outside of their control, it's not surprising they wouldn't rush to admit it. Plus they've used car bombs as a method of assassination before.

accidentally blew himself up.
I doubt a senior figure in the group would be arsing around with explosives. They have underlings to do that for them.

Finally, I might point the finger at the Lebanese. Realize that a lot of Lebanese do not like Hezbollah. I don't know if the Lebanese government has this kind of capability, but it could be a non-governmental organization, or even an individual who has lost family to Hezbollah.
Possibly. But like you said, the government is fractured as doesn't have a capability to carry this out. Internal Hezb'allah? Maybe.

My guess would be an old rival faction from the civil war is cropping up again..... or the Israelis. One or the two.

You're the one who JUST NOW admitted to "cyber-wanking." You admitted it with pride, in fact, so I don't see why you imply that this imagery is a bad thing.

And while I might indeed be obsessed with masturbation, at least when *I* do it I'm thinking about living women instead of dead men. You take care, New Mitanni.

I don't really see the point in giving someone like him a trial. They'll only turn it into a political platform and it's a waste of money anyway. Killing them is easier. Obviously capture them if possible as they probably hold considerable intelligence, but once you're finished with them under those circumstances, it makes more sense to just quietly dispose of them.

So what's your solution? Sit back and do nothing? Anyway, these people will probably be radicalised anyway. If you're being attacked by terrorists you've got to fight, regardless of what potential terrorists of the future may think. Particularly when you're in this kind of situation where terrorists are sheltering in other countries where you couldn't extradite them from. Going for a trials against domestic terrorists is all well and good (It would be unacceptable to go for assassinations and disappearances against your own citizens in your own country anyway), but when we're talking about this extreme international terrorism, other means have to be used.

Put pressure on the country that he is in to exdratite him, and try and catch him if he goes into any of the many countries he is wanted in. Put him on a public trial, and expose him for the scumbag he is. Put him away for life. Solitary confinement if possible.

In the case of Syria, the chances of a Hezbollah leader being extradited from there is almost nil, regardless of how much pressure you put on them. Trying to wait the terrorist to slip up is a dangerous game. You'll be waiting for them, possibly for years to do something which they might not even end up doing, such as briefly visiting a country which you have an extradition treaty with. In the meantime, they'll be using their freedom to plan terrorist attacks against you. Tactically, the best way to go under those circumstances is assassination.

Of course the threat won't diminish a great deal by assassinating the leaders, but it's a lot better than the alternative of doing nothing. Even if these assassinations don't completely destroy the terrorist threat (Nobody claimed they would), it will at least hamper their effectiveness somewhat. Just because you can't destroy the threat in one strike doesn't mean you shouldn't at least work towards it.

No, I disagree. I think we shouldn't everestimate how effective terrorist groups leaders are. I dpn't think that plans are spread over large areas- they're kept within small groups. The loss of a leader would be nothing compared to the hundreds of recruits they would gain by the death. I'm sorry, I was going to finish my post earlier.

I firmly believe that anyone who reveares someone who intentionally targets innocent people is not sane. It has nothing to do with nationality or belief.

When the American military kills civillians, I believe investigations should be made. I am ashamed of our acts during WWII (firebombing, etc).


Dont imply nationalism or ignorance because I dont ever support killing innocent people to further one's political/religous agenda. Regardless of that agenda. The IRA I felt just as little sympathy for.

S/he's not trolling. It's true, the bible tells us to revere life, no matter how evil. You were celebrating his death. As far as I know, you are a christian, and as such tend to live your life by bible. Celebrating death is not revering life, so is unchristian.


The Bible also calls for justice to be served. It does not mandate how that should be done. As someone wiser than me posted here recently...

God will be the judge, someone just delivered him to his trial.

Good riddance to bad rubbish, evil is not something to be revered and make no mistake he was evil.

Are you honostly, honostly going to look me in the metaphorical eye and tell me you think that the Israeli and US military intentionally target innocent women and children?

Now, Im no military man. Im not fond of them by any stretch of the imagination, but Im not crazy.


There is also a huge hypocrisy going on here.

You think that anyone who reveares institutions that murder women and children are insane.

You dont think those that see Hezbollah or Al Quada as freedom fighters are insane. Now, we can agree that to recognize an organization as freedom fighters shows some reverence, right?

Now, one of two things is going on. Either your a hypocrit, or you deny that Al Quada and Hezbollah kill innocent women and children, which makes you dellusional.

The difference is intentionally. In war, that will happen. Its the sad facts of life. Its why I am almost always against war unless there is absolutally no options. And the military tries to reduces civillian casualties. But reducing them to 0 is impossible.

One of our biggest problems in Iraq is we are trying so hard not to kill civillians.


I also see you ignored me calling you out on your belief that a reverence for a terrorist organization is acceptable as hypocrisy.

I mean really, unless there was going to be some sort of truly representative society set up in the place of the current regime in Lebanon I couldn't agree with the statement. Besides that, there are not really any freedom in any of those islamic societies in the middle east, it's just the nature of the beast. "freedom fighter" is a term to describe mostly western hemisphere revolutions which in theory put into place representative or at least decently liberal societies where it comes to "freedoms".
