Written by Administrator Sunday, 22 January 2012 23:32
On January 21, 2012, Massadat al-Mujahideen in Palestine released a statement claiming responsibility for the recent forest fires in Nevada. The statement praised the “group of…brothers” that purportedly set the fires “in the Reno region”, and the group announced their intention “to extend our war to spread into all the countries that plot against us with our enemy.” The statement further asserted that targeting Israel and “its allies headed by America” is a “duty on every Muslim until we liberate Palestine.” In the past, Massadat al-Mujahideen has routinely issued farfetched claims of responsibility for forest fires and arson attacks in Israel.

The statement pointed out that Abbas Ibrahim, a Shiite with alleged close ties to Hezbollah, is considered "a blood-sucker," and warned that should revolt take place by the Sunnis, "then the person to blame is Abbas Ibrahim and his likes, as he drags harm towards his own sect with his acts". The statement also condemned the army's invasion of homes, as well as atrocities committed against the Sunni population, in Majdal al-Aanjar and Khaled Valley".
