Abu Jandal Al-Dimashqi Threatens Lebanon with Terrorist Attacks

On August 11, 2007, the Islamist Website http://www.al-ekhlaas.net/, which is hosted by Telekom Malaysia Berhad, Malaysia, posted an audio message by Abu Jandal Al-Dimashqi, the Emir of Jama'at Al-Tawhid Wal-Jihad in Syria, eulogizing Abu Hurairah, a former Fath Al-Islam commander, who apparently died in the battle of Nahr Al-Bared.

In the message, Abu Jandal threatened Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Al-Siniora with terrorist attacks in Lebanon, saying: "Some of Fath Al-Islam's brave men have escaped Nahr Al-Bared. They are now among you. They have penetrated your ranks... and are lying in wait for you..."
