Hezbollah fighters overpowered Israel in 2006 and kept Israel from occupying Lebanon. The US and Israel have been plotting to weaken the power of Hezbollah even since, and this incident is a result of their plotting. Hezbollah should not relinquish its power to the gov't. which is too weak to protect itself from Israel. A powerful Hezbollah is the only option Lebanon has at this time to retain its independence.

... 'In Lebanon, we are very troubled by the recent actions of Hezbollah..

Ofcourse you are troubled. The way hezbollah handled the war in summer of 2006, I would be troubled too. There is nothing in this world that could make you happier than disarming the Hezbollah.

Yeah that'll work because they allways listen to the US etc.

What a farce, send in the troops and eradicate these pests like the cockroaches that they are.
Cut of the head of the slimey snake, Iran, a five year old can understand that.
After all hezblaghblagh is most definitly Iran.

No nice war, just hunt them down and kill the lot, when they stick their head out of the sand blow it off.

The letter of Yusef, chief of the Jews of Constantinople that laid out a plan of infiltration and subversion of Christian Spain

Asked by the Jews of Spain how they could resist the King of Spain who was forcing them to convert or even killing them, Yusef replied:

Where you say that the King of Spain would convert you to Christianity, do it because you have no alternative. Where you say that they deprive you of your property, make your sons merchants so that little by little you can take theirs. Where you say that they are robbing you of your lives, make your sons doctors and apothecaries so that you can end theirs. Where you say that they are destroying your synagogues, make your sons clerics and theologians, so you can destroy their churches. And as far as your other troubles are concerned, make your sons advocates, administrators, lawyers, and advisors, and let them take part in affairs of state so that you can control those affairs and gain land.

He forgot to mention media, but it’s understandable by that time
