Charbel: Same Attackers' behind Tripoli, Dahieh Explosions

Share:

marwan charbelCaretaker Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said on Saturday that the same party was behind the recent bombings in Lebanon.

He was commenting on Tripoli the Rweiss bombing in Hezbollah’s stronghold in the Dahieh, a  southern Beirut suburb.

“The blast in the (Beirut’s southern suburb of) Rweiss and the bombings in Tripoli were orchestrated by the same party,” Charbel told Hezbollah’s al Manar TV on Saturday.

He added that 4 wheel drive SUVs were used in all the bombings and all the bombs had nails in them and the cars were positioned in the same manner.

He added: “The perpetrators are the same in all bombing and they aim at causing a Sunni-Shiite sectarian strife in the country .”

Powerful car bombs exploded outside two Sunni mosques in Tripoli on Friday afternoon, the Al-Taqwa Mosque in the city’s Al-Zahiriya area and the Al-Salam Mosque in the Al-Mina neighborhood.

He added :” Regardless who did it these people will never be able to succeed in dividing our nation and Lebanon will be united ”

Charbel said also that the cleric who was arrested earlier on Saturday in connection with the the car bombs that targeted Tripoli’s Al-Salam Mosque is not a suspect and will be set free after questioning .
Sheikh Ahmad al-Gharib was arrested on Saturday, the National News Agency reported, adding that his residence was raided by the ISF Information Branch. NNA also said that rifles, machine guns , hand grenades and military maps for the city of Tripoli were confiscated from his residence.

 

Update : Al Jamhouriya  newspaper  reported that the bomb used  near the Salam Mosque was larger than the one used in the Rweiss attack. It weighed 175 kg of TNT  mixed with nitrate  and this reportedly explains  why the   fiery flames   were so huge  and why they resulted in the complete burning of many of the victims of the explosion. According to experts it was   the same type bomb used in the assassination in 2005 of MP Gebran Tueni . Syria at the time was accused of being behind Tueni’s assassination.

      Unless he is hidden by Nastyrallah, they will always be able to find him. Besides, he wants to ‘preach’ next Friday, no?? It’s the decent thing to do. ‘-) His ‘Mosque’ is still intact. :-))
      Charbel is, of course, wishing that it could be the same people, and that once they arrest them all it will stop. Such a happy thought.
      We CAN agree that they are the same Brain-Dead types.

    No way the criminals are the same in the Dahieh and in Tripoli, in fact they are ennemies of each other, however they both used the same tactics, the same technicality in executing their crimes. Why and How come ? Because both groups have learnt these tactics in the Baath Syrian party and regime terrorism school. The Dahieh bomb was placed by the FSA, who happen to be ex-Assad soldiers and supporters, while the bombs in Tripoli were put by the still loyal Assad supporters. Both have “graduated” from the same Syrian Terrorism Faculty in Damascus…… you idiot minister of interior.
    You want to take a relevant action: Close the borders with Syria. No more Syrians can enter Lebanon, not even refugees. Only Lebanese in Syria who want to return can do so, or Syrians in Lebanon who want to return to Syria can do so.

        Hi Reasonableman, with all that has happened you still need evidence….It is as clear as the sun to me. In any case, I am happy it was not you who was snatched by a crocodile in Australia. I remembered sharks but forgot the crocodiles and crocodile dundee. 🙂
        For me, I read the events as such: Starting with HA involvement in Syria, a very bad idea for Lebanon but a strategic move for HA, because if Assad… I should rather say when Assad falls, HA is going to fall automatically, and for this reason HA is in a survival mode helping Assad to remain in power, because the longer Assad is in power the longer HA is in power. Now from the Syrian opposition side, it is natural that they don’t like that and they warned HA to retreat several times or else….so the or else expressed itself last week in the dahieh’s bomb, the Syrian regime, who promised to turn Lebanon into hell, did not like what the FSA did with its ally in the Dahieh, so it sent a double bomb to Tripoli to revenge HA’s public. All our problems since decades are from Syria, and I can almost promise you whoever comes in place of Assad is going to treat Lebanon like his predecessors, as a province to Syria and for this reason I am eager for a peace treaty with Israel.

      I don’t think its unreasonable. Somebody is awakening the sleeper cells in Lebanon. Somebody that really likes to stir the hornets nest to achieve their goals. The best way to get rid of your enemies is to pit them against each other.
