Missouri Doctor: “It’s Just A Matter Of Time Before [Ebola] Is Carried To Every Corner Of The World”

10/03/2014 1 comment

I think it’s safe to say that as the number of cases rise in the coming weeks and months, so too will the degree of panic. In the midst of any storm, have faith and know that God remains in control even when the world spirals out of it …

Proverbs 16:4, “The LORD works out everything to its proper end— even the wicked for a day of disaster.”

By Dom Giordano, CBS Philly – “Dom Giordano talked with Dr. Gil Mobley, who believes the CDC is lying about the threat posed by Ebola and staged a protest at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson Airport to expose it.

Mobley, a doctor in Missouri, is convinced that Ebola will soon be infecting people all over the globe.

‘For months, doctors in my community — since we had a meeting six weeks ago — have been convinced that the United States will be importing clusters regularly. Right now, on the continent of West Africa, there are a million people in isolation, in quarantine, because of Ebola, and ten thousand passengers leave West Africa every single day. It’s just a matter of time before this disease is carried to every corner of the world.’

He insists the CDC is underplaying the threat posed by the disease and is intentionally misleading the public.

‘They said the chance of importing a cluster — just two weeks ago — was extremely small, yet we knew that it was a sure thing. And the very same day that the President echoed [Director Tom] Frieden’s sentiment at the CDC that it’s very small, that very same day, they made the misdiagnoses in Dallas and sent this infectious guy home to infect these other people.'” Read more.

Doomsday Warning: UN Ebola Chief Raises ‘Nightmare’ Prospect That Virus Could Mutate And Become Airborne And Much More Infectious – “The longer the Ebola epidemic continues infecting people unabated, the higher the chances it will mutate and become airborne, the UN’s Ebola response chief has warned. Anthony Banbury, the Secretary General’s Special Representative, has said there is a ‘nightmare’ prospect the deadly disease will become airborne if it continues infecting new hosts. His comments come as organisations battling the crisis in West Africa warned the international community has just four weeks to stop its spread before it spirals ‘completely out of control’. And the British nurse who survived the disease said the ‘horror and misery’ of watching young children die from the disease must be avoided ‘at all costs’.” Read more.

European Security Officials: Ebola Pandemic Should Be Treated ‘The Same Way’ As Threat Posed By Nuclear Weapons – “The Ebola virus spreading exponentially across Africa and killing thousands of people ‘will get worse’, the Government has admitted, amid calls for the full involvement of the international military to contain the disease. Justine Greening, the International Development Secretary, said that ministers had been shocked by a prediction from the US public health institute that 1.4 million people may be infected by the virus by January if it continues unchecked. As ministers, diplomats and humanitarian organisations from 20 different countries pledged a further £79 million to control the outbreak, which has already killed more than 3,000 people, a group of 35 European security officials issued a joint declaration suggesting that Ebola should be treated in the same way as the threat posed by nuclear weapons.” Read more.

Luke 21:11, “There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places …”

Update: Ebola tests negative for Washington, Toronto and Salt Lake City patients …

NBC Washington – “A patient with Ebola-like symptoms is being treated at Howard University Hospital in Washington, D.C., a hospital spokesperson confirmed late Friday morning.

The patient had traveled to Nigeria recently.

That person has been admitted to the hospital in stable condition, and is being isolated and tested. The medical team is working with the CDC to determine whether the patient has Ebola.

‘In an abundance of caution, we have activated the appropriate infection control protocols, including isolating the patient,’ said hospital spokesperson Kerry-Ann Hamilton in a statement. ‘Our medical team continues to evaluate and monitor progress in close collaboration with the CDC and the Department of Health.’

Hamilton did not share further details about the patient, citing privacy reasons, but said the hospital will provide updates as warranted.” Read more.

Officials Investigate Possible Ebola Cases In Hawaii And Utah – “Health officials in at least two states worked Thursday to determine whether patients other than a man being treated in Texas are infected with the Ebola virus. Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City forwarded specimens from a male patient to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for additional tests, CBS affiliate KUTV reported. The unidentified patient recently traveled to an African country where Ebola has not yet been reported, but showed symptoms similar to the virus.” Read more.

Toronto Hospital Testing Patient For Possible Case of Ebola – “A patient at a Toronto hospital is being tested for Ebola as well as other possible illnesses. Toronto’s University Health Network (UHN) confirmed a patient who had recently traveled to West Africa was admitted to one of its four hospitals with a fever, but wouldn’t say which hospital or what West African country. The watch list for countries experiencing an Ebola outbreak are Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea and Nigeria. Health network spokesperson Gillian Howard said the person is in isolation and staff are using protective equipment until the test results are in – likely within the next 24 hours.” Read more.

Report: Inmate At Cobb County Jail In Georgia Being Tested For Ebola – “An inmate at the Cobb County Jail is reportedly being test for Ebola. WSB-TV reports that the man told jail officials he recently traveled to Africa after developing a fever while in custody. He was arrested overnight and charged with DUI. WSB reports that the jail is no longer accepting inmates at this time. The first Ebola diagnosis in the nation has raised concerns about whether the disease that has killed 3,300 people in West Africa could spread in the U.S. Federal health officials say they are confident they can keep it in check. Texas health officials expanded their efforts to contain the virus, reaching out to as many as 100 people who may have had direct contact with Thomas Eric Duncan or someone close to him.” Read more.

UK Muslim: There Will Be More Beheadings On The Streets Of Britain

10/03/2014 1 comment

Because the United Kingdom daring to introduce laws that ban extremism and terrorism are completely contrary to the laws of “Allah.” Says a lot about Islam, doesn’t it? …

Qur’an Sura 18:26, “[Allah] maketh none to share in his government.”

Qur’an Sura 9:29, “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of [Islam] …”

Believes Muslims Have The Right To Be Extremists

By Euan Stretch, Mirror – “An Islamic extremist has warned there will be more Lee Rigby-style atrocities on the streets of the UK if the government passes new laws to clampdown on Muslim activists.

British-born Mizanur Rahman, 31, accused Home Secretary Theresa May of ‘playing with fire’ by planning to introduce new ‘anti-social behavour orders’ for Muslim extremists.

Last month Ms May announced she was drawing up new counter-terrorism measures to prevent young muslims in the UK being radicalised and joining groups like the Islamic State (IS).

But Mr Rahman said moves to silence activists could encourage terror acts in the UK like the murder of soldier Lee Rigby by Islamic converts Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale last year.

Mr Rahman, jailed for four years in 2007 for encouraging the murder of American troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, gave the chilling warning in an interview with internet radio station FUBAR.

He said: ‘Theresa May is playing with fire because the fact is people like me who are willing to speak out regardless of the consequences are few.

‘Other people will look to me and say they don’t want their house to be raided and to have a voice they will have to use other means.

‘Rather they will take their own actions, like Michael Adebolajo, for example.

‘The British police are saying that kind of attack is likely to happen again, and the threat level keeps rising.

‘It certainly looks like it is going that way, and things like this announcement doesn’t help, it makes things worse.'” Read more.

Flashback: Machete Wielding Convert To Islam Beheads Woman In London Garden – “Police have arrested a 25-year-old man after he reportedly beheaded a woman with a machete in a residential north London area. The attack is said to have happened in the afternoon in Edmonton, where special forces were called to the scene when the unidentified man attacked either a dog or a cat with a knife, according to the Daily Mail. In the backyard of a nearby house, police discovered a woman dead. More officers were deployed to the scene, where they cornered and used tasers to subdue the suspect and brought him into custody on suspicion of murder.” Read more.

Flashback: UK Jihadist In Syria To British Muslims: Behead More Infidels Like Lee Rigby For Allah – “A young Muslim from London has boasted of becoming the ‘British Bin Laden’ after being unmasked as the leader of a fanatical terrorist group in Syria. Ismail Jabbar, 22, was yesterday revealed as a fighter with the extremist cell ‘Unit Bin Laden’ in Aleppo, where he brags about killing non-Muslims and incites other Briton’s to join his jihad. He is believed to have lived with his parents in Hayes, Middlesex, until nine months ago, when he was able to travel to Syria under the guise of working for an aid convoy. Operating under a pseudonym, Mr Jabbar now regularly encourages British Muslim to travel to Syria or replicate the brutal ‘lone wolf’ attack carried out on Drummer Lee Rigby last year.” Read more.

Flashback: British Imam: There Will Be More Murder, Beheadings On The Streets Of England – “Radical preacher Anjem Choudary, the leader of the now banned Islam4UK, said ‘there will be other Lee Rigbys’ during a heated debate on immigration… none sparked such a reaction on social media as Choudary, with many questioning why he should be allowed on the programme… In an interview with one of the presenters, Nick Ferrari, Choudary said: ‘Afghanistan is not occupying Britain. Britain (sic) are going to Muslim countries and killing people. This will have repercussions in this country and unless we wake up to this fact, there will be other Lee Rigbys.’” Read more.

US Army Warning: ISIS Is Searching Social Media For US Military Personnel And Families To Slaughter

10/02/2014 4 comments

For peaceful purposes …

Qur’an Sura 9:5, “… fight and slay the Pagans [non-Muslims] wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war) …”

By Catherine Herridge, FOX News – “An Army intelligence bulletin is warning U.S. military personnel to be vigilant after Islamic State militants called on supporters to scour social media for addresses of their family members – and to ‘show up [at their homes] and slaughter them.’

The assessment, obtained by Fox News, came from the Army Threat Integration Center which issues early warnings of criminal and terrorist threats to Army posts worldwide.

The advisory warns military personnel and their families about the Islamic State, or ISIS, calling on supporters to target their homes.

While there is no independent intelligence to corroborate the ISIS threats, the bulletin recommends more than a dozen precautions to military personnel to protect their homes — and their online profiles.

One section cites a jihadist tweet calling on lone offenders to use the ‘yellow pages’ and social media to identify the addresses of military families, and to ‘show up [at their homes] and slaughter them.’

A military source familiar with the four-page document said the warnings are taken seriously because increasing the costs of security is a deliberate and strategic goal for Al Qaeda senior leadership – though the Islamic State has split with Al Qaeda.

The Army said in a written statement that protection levels at installations ‘have not changed.’

‘This document is a reminder to stay vigilant,’ the Army said …” Read more.

Flashback: ‘Islam Is Coming’: Jihadist Leader Warns U.S. That Foreign Fighting In Syria Could Be In America Next – “During a radio interview Sunday, a representative of al-Qaida in the Gaza Strip sent a message to the United States: ‘Islam is coming and there is no other choice.’ That sentiment was expressed by Abu Saqer, leader of Jihadiya Salafiya in the Gaza Strip, speaking on ‘Aaron Klein Investigative Radio’ on New York’s WABC Radio. Jihadiya Salafiya represents al-Qaida in the Gaza Strip. Saqer further stated that after battling Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, the thousands of foreign  jihadists currently in Syria could turn their ire on what he called the many other ‘enemies of Islam,’ including Israel and the United States.” Read more.

That’s more people than the number of military personnel on active duty in Australia, Canada, Germany, Poland and the UK combined …” Read more.

Desert City Reborn: Saudi Arabia Overhauls Islam’s Holiest City Of Mecca To One Of “Monumental” Luxury

10/02/2014 1 comment

Mecca, your days are numbered …

Revelation 17:3-6, 18; 18:2-3, “… he carried me away in the Spirit to a desert. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast … The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls. She had a gold cup in her hand filled with everything vile … the woman was drunk on the blood of the saints and on the blood of the witnesses to Jesus … the woman you saw is the great city that has an empire over the kings of the earth… She has become a dwelling for demons … The kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from her excessive luxury …”

Isaiah 21:1-2, “An oracle concerning the Desert by the Sea: Like whirlwinds sweeping through the southland, an invader comes from the desert, from a land of terror. A dire vision has been shown to me: The traitor betrays, the looter takes loot. Elam, attack! Media, lay siege! I will bring to an end all the groaning she caused.”

By Aya Batrawy, CTV News – “As a child, Osama al-Bar would walk from his home past Islam’s holiest site, the Kaaba, to the market of spice and fabric merchants where his father owned a store. At that time, Mecca was so small, pilgrims could sit at the cube-shaped Kaaba and look out at the serene desert mountains where the Prophet Muhammad once walked.

Now the market and the homes are gone. Monumental luxury hotel towers crowd around the Grand Mosque where the Kaaba is located, dwarfing it. Steep rocky hills overlooking the mosque have been levelled and are now covered with cranes building more towers in row after row.

‘My father and all the people who lived in Mecca wouldn’t recognize it,’ said al-Bar, who is now Mecca’s mayor.

As Muslims from around the world stream into Mecca for the annual hajj pilgrimage this week, they come to a city undergoing the biggest transformation in its history.

Decades ago, this was a low-built city of centuries-old neighbourhoods. Over the years, it saw piecemeal renewal projects. But in the mid-2000s, the kingdom launched its most ambitious overhaul ever with a series of mega-projects that, though incomplete, have already reshaped Mecca.

Old neighbourhoods have been erased for hotel towers and malls built right up to the edge of the Grand Mosque. Historic sites significant for Islam have been demolished. Next to the Kaaba soars the world’s third tallest skyscraper, topped by a gigantic clock, which is splashed with colored lights at night.

‘It’s not Mecca. It’s Mecca-hattan. This tower and the lights in it are like Vegas,’ said Sami Angawi, an architect who spent his life studying hajj and is one of the most outspoken critics of the changes. ‘The truth of the history of Mecca is wiped out … with bulldozers and dynamite. Is this development?’

Critics complain the result is stripping the holy city of its spirituality. They also say it is robbing the hajj of its more than 1,400-year-old message that all Muslims, rich or poor, are equal before God as they perform the rites meant to cleanse them of sin, starting and ending by circling the Kaaba seven times.

Mecca is revered by hundreds of millions of Muslims worldwide. They face the Kaaba every day in their prayers. The Grand Mosque is one of the few places in the world where Muslims of all stripes gather — Sunnis and Shiites, secular Muslims, mystics and hard-liners.

Overseeing Mecca is also a key source of prestige for Saudi Arabia’s monarchy. The past two kings — the current one, Abdullah, and his predecessor, Fahd — have adopted the further title of ‘custodian of the two holy mosques’ to boost their status, referring to Mecca’s Grand Mosque and Muhammad’s mosque in nearby Medina.

Now Mecca is being moulded to a particularly Saudi vision that bolsters the rule of the Al Saud royal family.

Two forces shape that vision. One is raw, petrodollar-fueled capitalism. Mecca’s planners are largely catering to wealthier pilgrims by focusing on construction of five-star hotels, surrounding the Kaaba in marble-sheathed luxury. Nearby, pilgrims can shop at international chains, including a Paris Hilton store and a gender-segregated Starbucks.

The other force is …” Read more.

Pot Out, Prophet In: ISIS “Executioner” Used To Be A French Pot-Smoking Clubber

10/02/2014 1 comment

He used to be a pot-smoking clubber. Now he’s smoking a whole different weed and clubbing infidels instead. When it comes to marijuana and Mohammed, one is much more deadly than the other. Can you guess which one? …

Qur’an Sura 48:29, “Mohammed is [Allah’s] apostle. Those who follow him are ruthless to the unbelievers but merciful to one another.”

France 24 – “As a teen, Salim Benghalem smoked weed and went out clubbing. Now, the Frenchman is an Islamic State (IS) jihadist wanted by Washington, which accuses him of carrying out executions for the extremist group.

The US State Department last week singled him out as one of 10 wanted ‘foreign terrorist fighters’, describing him as ‘a Syria-based French extremist and ISIL member’ — using an alternative name for IS — as well as an executioner.

But this description has left friends and relatives of the 34-year-old, who grew up in Cachan near Paris, baffled.

On condition of anonymity, they acknowledge he is a Muslim who travelled to Syria to pursue ‘an ideal of justice’, but ‘definitely not an executioner.’

Described as a happy, ‘slightly puny’ man, Benghalem is the fourth of seven children. He got on with his family but suddenly, unexpectedly left his hometown in 2012, leaving behind a wife and two young kids.

He waited four days before contacting his relatives, telling them he was in Syria and had joined the Islamic State group, which controls large parts of the war-torn country as well as swathes of Iraq.

He gives regular news via Skype or Viber, calling every 10 to 15 days from Internet cafes near the northern Syrian city of Aleppo. His relatives say they sometimes see armed fighters in the background.

‘He didn’t belong in France. He found himself over there,’ a person close to him said, wishing to remain anonymous, adding that his task in Syria is to hand out fines on behalf of IS …” Read more.

Flashback: Au Revoir: Islam Set To Become Dominant Religion In France – “New research suggests there are now more practising Muslims in France than practising Catholics. While 64 percent of French people describe themselves as Roman Catholic, only 2.9 percent of the population actually practice the Catholic faith. That compares to 3.8 percent of the population who practice the Muslim faith… There is also further evidence that mosques are being erected at a much faster rate than Catholic churches. Mohammed Moussaoui, President of the Muslim Council of France, last month estimated that 150 new mosques are currently under construction across the country. By contrast, the Catholic Church in France has built only 20 new churches during the past decade, and has formally closed more than 60 churches. Many of these are now destined to become mosques …” Read more.

Former Member Of Oklahoma Beheader’s Mosque: They Teach Jihad Against Non-Muslims

10/02/2014 6 comments

Naturally. They’d be bad Muslims if they hadn’t …

Qur’an Sura 4:76a, “Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah …”

Qur’an Sura 8:55, “Surely the vilest of animals in Allah’s sight are those who disbelieve [non-Muslims] …”

Qur’an: Sura 4:89, “Have no unbelieving friends. Kill the unbelievers [non-Muslims] wherever you find them.”

Hadith, Tabari 9:69, “Killing Unbelievers [non-Muslims] is a small matter to us” – The Words of Mohammad, “Prophet” of Islam

By Ian Hanchett, Breitbart – “A member of the mosque attended by Alton Nolen, the man who beheaded a woman and stabbed another in Oklahoma recently, said that the mosque taught members to wage jihad against non-believers on Wednesday’s broadcast of ‘The Kelly File’ on the Fox News Channel.

The man, who spoke on condition of anonymity, and was identified as ‘Noor,’ reported ‘to the public, the mosque will not promote terrorism or any kind of radical acts, but when they’re among friends and congregants only, they will promote the true teachings of Islam which include the offer to non-Muslims the choice rather that you must convert, live under Islamic rule, or be fought against. Jihad, for the sake of Allah.’

‘Noor’ outlined some of the radical teachings of the mosque, stating ‘I was specifically told, for example, concerning suicide bombings in Israel that we do support these acts because as it was told to me this is the only weapon the Palestinians have, but do not mention this to the media because they would not understand.’ And ‘beheadings were discussed [as] the means of which you confront the infidel as it is related to in the Koran that when you meet the unbelievers you should smite at their necks.’

‘Noor’ added that two congregants, one of which he said was now an Imam, ‘told me that if Osama Bin Laden came to their door, they would invite him in and protect him, because he was a brother Muslim and we must protect him from those that don’t believe,’ and that Suhaib Webb, the current Imam of the Islamic Society of Boston, taught him about the convert, live under Islamic rule, or be fought against choice that Muslims must offer non-believers.

He further reported that two converts to Islam who worshipped at the mosque took him to shoot weapons at targets that they said would represent George W. Bush and Ariel Sharon.” Source – Breitbart.

Report: ISIS Fighters Kill Up To 1,000 Iraqi Soldiers And “Are Now Just One Mile From Baghdad”

10/01/2014 Leave a comment

So far, the US is failing miserably to stop the Islamic State’s advance …

Location: The militants are understood to have had their advance halted by airstrikes yesterday at Ameriyat Al-Falluja yesterday - a small city about 18 miles south of Fallujah and 40 miles west of Baghdad. But the clashes did not force the bulk of the fighters - with many of them now having made their way to the Baghdad suburbs

Location: The militants are understood to have had their advance halted by airstrikes yesterday at Ameriyat Al-Falluja yesterday – a small city about 18 miles south of Fallujah and 40 miles west of Baghdad. But the clashes did not force the bulk of the fighters – with many of them now having made their way to the Baghdad suburbs

By John Hall, Mail Online – “Fierce fighting has been reported on the outskirts of Baghdad where ISIS militants are attempting to seize control of the Iraqi capital – despite ongoing Western airstrikes against the terror group.

The fighting is taking place just one mile to the west of the city, with government forces desperately trying to hold off the militants, who allegedly killed up to 1,000 soldiers during clashes yesterday.

ISIS have held a number of towns and villages close to the Iraqi capital since earlier in the year, when government troops melted away following a lightning advance in the west of the country – enabling the terrorist group to seize further swaths of territory for their so-called caliphate.

Reports that ISIS militants are now just one mile from Baghdad came from the Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East – an organisation supporting the work of Canon Andrew White, vicar of the city’s St George’s Church, the only Anglican church in Iraq.

In a message posted on Facebook, the group said: ‘The Islamic State are now less than 2km away from entering Baghdad. They said it could never happen and now it almost has.” Read more.

Report: Second Person May Have Contracted Ebola In Dallas As Red Flags Emerge That US Is Unprepared For Pandemic

Psalm 91:2-3, “I will say of the LORD, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in Him I will trust.’ Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence …”

By Marjorie Owens, USA Today – “Health officials are closely monitoring a possible second Ebola patient who had close contact with the first person to be diagnosed in the U.S., the director of Dallas County’s health department said Wednesday.

All who have been in close contact with the man diagnosed are being monitored as a precaution, Zachary Thompson, director of Dallas County Health and Human Services, said in a morning interview with WFAA-TV.

‘Let me be real frank to the Dallas County residents: The fact that we have one confirmed case, there may be another case that is a close associate with this particular patient,’ he said. ‘So this is real. There should be a concern, but it’s contained to the specific family members and close friends at this moment.’

The director continued to assure residents that the public isn’t at risk because health officials have the virus contained.

On Tuesday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed a patient at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas was the first person to be diagnosed in the United States with the Ebola virus.

The patient left Liberia on Sept. 19 and arrived in Dallas the following day. On Sept. 26, he sought treatment at the hospital after becoming ill but was sent home with a prescription for antibiotics. Two days later, he was admitted with more critical symptoms, after requiring an ambulance ride to the hospital.

The patient, whose condition was upgraded to serious Wednesday, was in contact with several children before he was hospitalized, health officials here said.” Read more.

After First Ebola Case, Red Flags Emerge That U.S. Unprepared For Pandemic – “The confirmation Tuesday of the first Ebola case on U.S. soil emerges against a backdrop of increasing concern in America’s medical community that preparedness for a pandemic has stagnated or slipped in recent years because of tough economic times and increasing malaise since the 2001 anthrax threat. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, America’s premier disease fighter, offered an air of confidence Tuesday in declaring that the first Ebola patient in Dallas was carefully contained.” Read more.

Islamic State Preparing To Cross Over Into Lebanon, Vows To Crucify Lebanese Christians

10/01/2014 1 comment

In the twisted minds of Islamic jihadists, non-Muslims spread mischief in the land simply by believing in something other than Islam. It’s a good thing all those air strikes are degrading ISIS, otherwise they’d be preparing to invade Lebanon and crucify its Christians …

Qur’an Sura 5:33, “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement …”

By Jack Moore, IBT – “Christians in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley have begun arming themselves in preparation for an Isis (now known as the Islamic State) offensive as it seeks to expand its territorial control outside of Syria.

Up to 3,000 militants from the Islamic State and other jihadists occupy the mountain range between Lebanon and Syria near the Sunni town of Arsal.

As IS seek to grab land outside of the mountain caves and farms they currently control, Christian volunteers have now created village defence forces to protect against the Sunni militants who have taken up to 21 Lebanese soldiers and policemen hostage.

‘We are a minority and we are under threat by the jihadists,’ Rifaat Nasrallah, a commander of the volunteer guards in the Greek Catholic town of Ras Baalbek, said.

‘It wasn’t the idea of anyone in particular,’ Nasrallah says of the formation of defence units. ‘The whole village felt in danger so we all agreed it was necessary.’

‘We don’t shoot if we see someone or something moving in the mountains,’ said one of the watchmen. ‘We just call the Army and they investigate.’

Ras Baalbek has a population of 15,000 and is  separated from the flashpoint town of Arsal by a range of hills.

‘Imagine if Islamic State makes it into Ras Baalbek and they crucify a Christian. It will set Lebanon alight,’ a western diplomat in the Lebanese capital of Beirut, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Times.

There are approximately 2.4m Chrisitans in Lebanon, 20pc of the total population.” Read more.

The terrorists, who belong to The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria [ISIS — known as DAESH in Arabic] and are said to be an offshoot of al-Qaeda, are planning to take their jihad to Jordan, Lebanon, the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula — after having already captured large parts of Syria and Iraq, the sources said.” Read more.

The fierce fighting in Arsal, now in its third day, has killed 17 Lebanese soldiers and compounded fears that tiny Lebanon is fast becoming a new front in its neighbor’s conflict. The government rushed reinforcements to the scene, including dozens of armored personal carriers, tanks and elite troops, suggesting fighting was about to worsen.” Read more.
