Feltman to Israeli Daily: Hizbullah Imposes Will Through Force
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Jeffrey Feltman reportedly said that Hizbullah would resort to violence whenever it dislikes a certain situation.
“Hizbullah is a terrorist organization that participated in the elections,” Feltman told the Israeli Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper on Thursday.
“But when they dislike the status quo, they impose their will through force and violence,” he reportedly said.
Feltman’s comments came as he arrived in Beirut on Wednesday on a two-day visit for talks with top Lebanese officials.
Sources close to Hizbullah told pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat that Feltman is visiting Beirut to put new conditions on the Lebanese government after Lebanon paid its share of funds to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.
They said that Washington had threatened Premier Najib Miqati to impose Security Council sanctions on Lebanon if it had failed to fund the STL that is set to try ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s suspected assassins.

"there is no shame in asking the help of the americans to help defend the sovereignty and independance of lebanon" said aoun in 2003...
if those today who do the same are labeled as traitors then why did M8 accept a traitor among them?
he was a traitor when he said that in their binary logic...

@ arzz, you are no more an American than I am the queen of England but let’s pretend for the sake of argument that you are an American so I can break this down for you: If the United States of America went to war with Hizbullah whether it is right or wrong to do so, which side would you be on? If the answer is anything other than the USA then when you raised your right hand and took the oath of citizenship, you lied thru your teeth and you are a fake American who hates America.
There are a lot of fake Americans in the USA, hell there is one in the White House right now, and you go there to abuse it for its benefit and curse it at every chance. I encourage all fake Americans to turn in their citizenship in and leave the USA the fuck alone!!!! Nobody put a gun to your head to make you come...just leave.
