‘Ahrar Al-Sunna’ Calls to Destroy All Lebanon Churches - Farsnews

July 3, 2014

Ahrar al-Sunna issued a statement on its Twitter account on Thursday, saying that all churches should be demolished across the Islamic state of Lebanon, Al-Alam reported.

The group has earlier announced loyalty to the so-called ‘Islamic caliphate’ newly established by the Takfiri group of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

The ISIL has recently announced the establishment of what it considers an Islamic "caliphate," or state, which it says will extend from Aleppo in Northern Syria to Diyala in Iraq.

Baghdadi, who was a detainee at US Bucca prison in 2005, has announced himself as the caliph of the Muslim world.


On Sunday, Baghdadi appointed Abdul Salam al-Ordoni, as emir for Lebanon and set up camps to train militants to be sent to the country for terrorist attacks.

Ordoni was reportedly behind explosions carried out by two Saudi individuals last week at Beirut’s Duroy Hotel, in which a dozen people were injured.
