The relations between the Iranian regime’s Quds Force and Lebanese Hezbollah is far more than a relations between a terrorist force and its proxy.

A report published on Thursday by an Iranian state-run news agency on the Iranian regime’s media campaign for Qassem Suleimani, the commander of the regime’s terrorist Quds Force referred to Jihad Mughniyah, the son of notorious Lebanese terror master and top commander of Hezbollah as a nephew of IRGC General, Qassem Sulemiani.

Suleimani is the commander of the Quds Force, the extra-territorial arm of the IRGC, responsible for its terrorist operations and meddling in the countries in the region.

Jihad Mughinyah first came to the attention of media when his photos with Suleimani attending the funeral of mother of the Quds Force Commander in Tehran were published.

Jihad was killed earlier this year in Syria. He was son of Imad Mughniyah, who was known to have family relationship with the Qassem Suleimani. However, this is the first time that an Iranian news website identifies him as being his brother-in-law.

Imad Mughniyah was the principal leader and operative for a number of Hezbollah’s military, intelligence, and security apparatuses for years. He was involved in scores of terrorists acts and kidnappings over a long period including bombing the Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983, the bombings of US embassies, the hijacking of TWA airplane in 1985, and was also indicted in Argentina for the bombing of a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires.
