The Jewish state of Israel faces not only hostility from its neighboring countries but also significant challenges from numerous nations worldwide. Recent revelations from secret service sources, as reported by De WELT, shed light on the extensive network of militias being trained against Israel, with Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Polisario Front at the forefront. These developments underscore Iran’s role in sponsoring and coordinating acts of aggression, with profound implications for regional stability and global security.
The Threats and Provocations:
Since the Gaza war’s onset, Israel has been confronted with incessant threats and sinister conspiracies of extermination from its enemies. Hezbollah, a Lebanese terrorist organization, fires rockets on a near-daily basis into Israeli territory, while attempts of infiltration through the northern border have been thwarted. The reach of these hostilities extends beyond the region, with allies and activists from Syria, Yemen, Iraq, and even Africa pledging support to combat Israel. Amidst this hostile landscape, Iran emerges as the driving force behind these dangerous activities, leveraging its terrorist tactics against both the United States and Israel.
Iran’s Expanding Network:
According to exclusive reports from Western secret services and financial investigators consulted by De WELT, Iran has been steadily expanding its global network. Tehran’s support is no longer limited to Shiite and Sunni groups but extends to diverse organizations united by their anti-Israel stance. One notable example is the Polisario Front, a socialist militia based in Southern Algeria’s Tindouf refugee camps. With Iran’s backing, this separatist movement has rekindled its fight against Morocco, controlling parts of Western Sahara and receiving arms and training from Hezbollah.
Explosive Allegations:
Although leaders from the Polisario Front and Hezbollah vehemently deny these allegations, Morocco has presented extensive evidence, including detailed reports and satellite images, of meetings between the two groups in Algeria. Morocco also claims Iran facilitated these encounters through its embassy in Algeria. Recent secret service findings, such as recorded telephone conversations between Polisario representatives and an alleged Hezbollah contact, further substantiate these claims. The discussions revolve around joint attacks on Israel, with calls for increased support from Hezbollah and Iran.
The Role of Hawala Networks:
To sustain its financial aid to Hezbollah, Hamas, and possibly the Polisario Front, Iran employs Hawala networks that operate internationally, especially from Spain and the Tindouf camps in Algeria. Hawala is an ancient system enabling money transfers outside conventional banking channels. Iran exploits the inherent complexities of these networks to obscure its financial contributions, making it challenging to monitor the flow of funds.
Targeting Stability: Morocco and the Abraham Accord:
In recent years, Iran’s proxy attacks have targeted Arab states deemed “too Western” or those forging closer ties with Israel. Morocco, following its recognition of the Abraham Peace Accords and its resultant alliance with Israel, has become a primary focus for Iranian attempts to destabilize the region. The Polisario Front’s increasing aggression against Morocco aligns with Iran’s machinations in this new geopolitical landscape.
Ongoing Threats and the Cost of Resistance:
As Hamas progressively escalated its attacks on Israel, starting with short-range missiles and eventually striking at the nation’s heart, the Israeli secret services grappled with containing the imminent threats. Mustafa Muhammad Lemine Al-Kitab, the Polisario envoy responsible for the Middle East, echoes Hamas’s rhetoric, asserting that the conflict is a jihad and resistance against occupation and the Zionist project. In this struggle, sacrifices and martyrs are deemed necessary for eventual victory.
The revelations unveiled by De WELT shed light on Iran’s extensive network of militias targeting Israel, with the Polisario Front serving as a prime example. Iran’s tactics of leveraging regional conflicts for its strategic interests continue to pose a significant threat, not only to Israel but also to global security. The international community must remain vigilant, as these developments have far-reaching implications for stability and peace in the Middle East and beyond.
