The Biden administration appears to have forgotten the Marine Barracks bombing [ [link removed] ] [in which 299 lives were lost by a terrorist suicide attack].
Even as the Biden administration scrambled to protect Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed terror group, from an Israeli response after its rocket targeting a soccer field killed 12 kids, the Islamic terror group has an ugly history of killing Americans.
“The worst part for me is that nobody remembers,” Mark Nevells said last year on [ [link removed] ] the anniversary of the Hezbollah bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut.
A Marine had thrown his body in front of the truck to try stop the vehicle and afterward for five days [ [link removed] ], Nevells and other Marines had dug through the rubble for the bodies of the men they had served with. One of the first Marines on the scene heard voices [ [link removed] ] from underneath the rubble. “Get us out. Don’t leave us.”
The Marines lost more people that day than at any time since Iwo Jima and the number of Americans murdered that day by a terrorist group was a record that would stand until September 11.
Before the attack, the NSA intercepted a message from Iranian intelligence in Tehran to the Iranian ambassador in Damascus ordering [ [link removed] ] “a spectacular action against the United States Marines.”
Hezbollah captured, tortured, and murdered Americans.
Colonel William R. Higgins was captured by Hezbollah and tortured for months until his body was dumped near a mosque. An autopsy report [ [link removed] ] found that he had been starved and had suffered multiple lethal injuries that could have caused his death. The skin on his face had been partially removed along with his tongue, and he had also been castrated.
Fred Hof, a diplomat [ [link removed] ] who had been a friend of the murdered man, said, “I am one of a small handful of Americans who knows the exact manner of Rich’s death. If I were to describe it to you now – which I will not – I can guarantee that a significant number of people in this room would become physically ill.”
“The State Department, not the Defense Department, had the lead. That meant diplomacy, not military might. It meant no retribution, no retaliation, no rescue,” Robin L. Higgins, his wife, wrote.
Like Higgins, William Francis Buckley, the CIA station chief, was also captured and tortured for months. On video tapes released by his Hezbollah captors, he was incoherent and his mind had been broken by the horrors inflicted on his ravaged body and his soul. “They had done more than ruin his body,” CIA Director William Casey said. “His eyes made it clear his mind had been played with. It was horrific, medieval and barbarous”
Robert Stethem, a Navy diver, was brutally murdered when Hezbollah terrorists took over TWA flight 847. The Iranian-backed terrorists, one of whom was Imad Mughniyah, beat and kicked him to death. “They were jumping in the air and landing full force on his body. He must have had all his ribs broken,” Uli Derickson, the stewardess, described.
There was no retaliation and no justice. Under Obama, the DEA was even ordered not to interfere with Hezbollah’s drug smuggling operations to remain on good terms with Iran.
But Israel appears to have [ [link removed] ] done the work [ [link removed] ] that the Biden administration refused to do.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has carried out a targeted strike in Beirut against a high-ranking commander responsible for recent deadly attacks on Israeli civilians. The target of the assassination was Fouad Shakar, known as “Haj Mohsen,” the second-in-command in Hezbollah’s leadership, who officially serves as the deputy head of the terrorist organization’s military wing.
The Hezbollah official had a $5 million bounty “on his head,” according to the United States Rewards for Justice.
The United States had placed a $5 million reward [ [link removed] ] on his head for his involvement in the Marine Barracks Bombing.
Current information is that Shukr is in pieces.
