Hizbullah Families: Our Sons Are Cannon Fodder for Assad
(Israel Hayom) Daniel Siryoti - Families of Hizbullah fighters in south Lebanon are growing increasingly angry that their sons are being sent to fight and die for Syrian President Bashar Assad, the Saudi newspaper Al Watan reported. Anger has recently grown stronger due to the large number of casualties Hizbullah has sustained during battles in the northern suburbs of Damascus. A senior member of the Shiite community in Lebanon told Lebanon's Al-Mustaqbal: "Our sons are cannon fodder for Assad." The mother of one new Hizbullah recruit said, "As long as our sons were recruited for the sake of the resistance and fight against the Zionist occupation - there is a purpose. But I don't want my son to participate in the massacre of Muslims by other Muslims."
