The Hezbollah Brigades (aka Kataib Hezbollah) are an Iraqi Shia terrorist group; designated as such by the
US State Department:
Kata’ib Hizballah is a radical Shia Islamist group with an anti-Western establishment and jihadist ideology that has conducted attacks against Iraqi, U.S, and Coalition targets in Iraq. Kata’ib Hizballah has ideological ties to Lebanese Hizballah and gained notoriety in 2007 with attacks on U.S. and Coalition forces designed to undermine the establishment of a democratic, viable Iraqi state. The organization has been responsible for numerous violent terrorist attacks since 2007, including improvised explosive device bombings, rocket propelled grenade attacks, and sniper operations. Kata’ib Hizballah also targeted the International Zone in Baghdad in a November 29, 2008 rocket attack that killed two UN workers. In addition, KH has threatened the lives of Iraqi politicians and civilians that support the legitimate political process in Iraq.
According to the Arab Digest, they have recently launched a channel in London called
Al-Etejah TV:
Another source referred to two already existing channels financed by Iran.
The first is the Aletejah TV, an Iraqi channel for the pro-Iranian "Hezbollah Brigades", a small military organisation that is diverting its attention to "social issues" after the American withdrawal. The second is Eden Life, a TV channel for South Yemen's former president, Ali Salem al-Beidh. He is calling for the independence of South Yemen, a demand much opposed by Saudi Arabia.
Sizer is not the subject of this interview on Al-Etejah, but the interviewer!
The Diocese of Guildford is investigating Sizer's antisemitic remark - will they also investigate Sizer's involvement with
Al-Etejah TV?
