Crossfire War: Bedouin Tribes Support al Qaeda
By Willard Payne
TEHRAN WATCH: Middle East Theatre; Gaza - al Qaeda (Tehran) Has Established Positions in Gaza City for Attacks Inside Israel
Night Watch: GAZA CITY - Debka reports that al Qaeda (Tehran) now has established positions in Gaza City in preparation for attacks well inside Israel. Tehran is giving Israel no other choice but to invade Gaza, which will provide Iran and other Islamic countries their reason/excuse to enter the next war with Israel in a show of support for Palestinian people. Their doing so will deflect the criticism they have been receiving from their citizens and fundamentalists groups for not doing more against Israel. [
Debka]
Though the Jihad will not make an all out effort to destroy the Jewish state it will give those who want to remove Israel their chance to experience martyrdom. It will help satisfy the thirst of Tehran's Tower of Blood. Tehran-Riyadh-Ankara are actually concentrating more of their war effort on controlling as many raw materials as possible. There is not much of a market for salt in the Dead Sea but there is for the oil in the Caspian.
Entry points for some of the al Qaeda members have been the Rafah terminal, where the U.S. has said the monitoring equipment, video cameras, have broken down and also Philadephi, manned by Egyptian police. Members of al Qaeda have been able to use forged Palestinian documents that enabled them to pass through undetected.
Tehran's plans for al Qaeda to have bases in Gaza City is nothing new but there are now pledges of support for Iran's al Qaeda leader in the region Abu Musab al Zarqawi by Bedouin tribes. "We are now comitted to following Zarqawi's flag," is the quote from Khan Younes of Gaza and Deir Balah, a Bedouin tribal leader. That gives Tehran the support of tens of thousands of tribesmen in the area, which guarantees the transporting of weaponry and explosives al Qaeda requires until Israel invades the area.
The PRC (Popular Resistance Committee), another Palestinian militant group also openly supports Tehran's latest moves in Gaza and has publicly stated that the struggle of the PRC is the same as that of al Qaeda. The PRC issues public statements, comuniques to that effect constantly from all their sources including their outlets in Baghdad.
This is the unity Iran has been preparing in order to control Palestinian people and to use their condition to create, inspire more hatred in the Islamic world, not only directed at Jerusalem but also at the non-Islamic world around the Middle East. War against Israel will be used by Theran as another unifying influence just as the Council of Guardians intend to use war against the West, India and Russia.
At the time of Israel's withdrawal from Gaza this past summer I stated that Jerusalem pulled its citizens out of the line of fire. They will be going back when the smoke clears.
