[UPI] Joshua Brilliant - Israeli soldiers in south Lebanon found a booklet that provided a glimpse into that movement's religious indoctrination. It extolled holy war and martyrdom and provided examples from the Iranian Revolutionary Guards' experience. There are several gates to Heaven and the most prestigious of all is the one for those involved in a Jihad, the document says. Yoram Kahati, deputy director of Israel's Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center, which the intelligence community uses to release declassified materials, noted that Hizballah considers its fighters "mainly Muslim-Shiite Jihad fighters who fulfill a most important religious commitment." Disarmament and cease-fire with Israel are not long-term options since such moves would seem to break religious principles. Hence Hizballah will persistently refuse to disarm, and Iran is going to back it. Hizballah leaders in Lebanon "are going to rebuild and strengthen themselves and if they feel they can carry out (operations)...they have a right to abrogate the cease-fire," Kahati cautioned. 2006-08-30 01:00:00Full Article
