Tom Gross has a translation of a report from a Kuwaiti newspaper, that says Hizballah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah is on his way to Syria for a secret meeting with the chinless ophthalmologist: Nasrallah “to go to Damascus today”.
The Kuwaiti daily al-Seyassa this morning reports that Hizbullah leader Sheikh Nasrallah is due to travel to Damascus today for a secret meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the Secretary of the Iranian Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani. (Larijani is also partly in charge of Iran’s nuclear program.)
The purpose of the meeting, according to the Kuwaiti paper, is to discuss further tactics to extend their war on Israel, and to continue to supply Iranian arms and ammunition to Hizbullah through Syria.
Nasrallah, according to the report, will travel in an armored vehicle belonging to Syrian intelligence, dressed with “regular clothes” and without his turban. He will be escorted by a Syrian Lt. General.
According to the paper, the latest speech of Nasrallah delivered on al-Manar TV was also recorded in a Syrian intelligence studio.
