Hizbullah Hits Back at Ban: U.N. 'Miserably Failed' to Liberate Lebanese Land
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Hizbullah on Thursday hit back at U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon’s call for the group to disarm, stressing that “Lebanon has the right to possess weapons to defend its land and sovereignty against Israel’s occupation and threats.”
“Hizbullah stresses that it took up arms to liberate the Lebanese territory, which Ban Ki-moon and his international organization had miserably failed to protect,” Hizbullah said in a statement, noting that the U.N. “failed to force the Israeli occupier to withdraw.”
In his latest report on the implementation of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 war between Israel and Hizbullah, Ban described Lebanon’s security situation as generally stable and reiterated his call on Hizbullah to transform itself into a political party.
The party’s arms continue to pose a serious challenge to the state’s ability to exercise full sovereignty and authority over its territory, he said.
“It seems that Mr. Ban Ki-moon’s eyes cannot see Israel’s hostile practices, the same as they cannot see the Judaization of Jerusalem and the occupation’s terrorist practices in occupied Palestine,” Hizbullah charged.

UN hasn t failed poor hypocrit: you did by not asking the syrians to give the written docs to the UN to prove that chebaa was lebanese thus falling under UN425 and not UN 242... israel would have evacuated long ago but you prefer to lie to lebanese people to keep your weapons and iranian agenda, you traitors....

Maybe Hezbollah would not be such liars if they surrendered Lebanon's sovereignty to Syria and Iran and then talk about Israel as if they are still significantly occupying Lebanon. Israel has Shebaa, Syria has the entire country.

bloody murderers and terrorists... any difference in the modus operadi with al qaida? NONE! The sunni terrorists want to free KSA from the American evil presence. The shia terrorists want to free 'Palestine' and Lebanon from the jewish evil presence. Did anyone notice they never fight to free the Golan Heights? They're just a tool of terror guided by Iran's theocratic dictatorship.

General Aoun 2002 : "In Lebanon there was a UN Resolution, meanwhile the resistance Hezbollah has prolonged the time of occupation for South Lebanon. There was a proposal from Israel in 1994. Would the Lebanese government tell us why at that time it withdrew from the negotiations when the Israeli proposal for withdrawal from the South was submitted.

And why would we fight Israel ya ahbal! To liberate the shebba farms? Who said they were Lebanese? Let Syria recognise the farms as Lebanes and we'll take it from there!
What else do you want? You want us to free Palestine? Not our fight! You want us to free the Golan? Not our fight!
HA is anything but noble ya Rik! No Israel= No HA... Israel breastfeeds HA who hasn't fired a bullet towards Israel in almost 6 years and calls itself resistance! You, whatever is your citizenship are the coward waiting for others to settle your problem!

Hezbollah didn't liberate Shebaa and lost a part of Gajar. After they failed to achieve anything and after starting a war, they raped Beirut. Their top killer was arrested in Iraq. They have shabiha in Syria. They sell drugs around the world, and everyone knows they killed Harriri.
Not to mention they don't pay electricity and are bankrupting the country. Oh and remember their girls were sleeping downtown servicing men when the Hezz were camped out at the parliament.
What are they so proud of??? Nassy can shut up now.

You need to realize that half of the people, if not more, in this little country do not want you. I don't care what you think but I don't want you and will fight you till the end. Even if it becomes an armed true resistance against you. I am Lebanese and you do no represent me. I
am moderate and want peace. I want this little country to prosper. Your like is preventing everything in Lebanon and the region from many things.

Nassrala, you forgot your nation long ago. Your loyalty is to Iran, your talk is all crap. The Lebanese armed forces are the only ones that have the right to posses arms in the name of Lebanon. You want to defend Lebanon and make it strong... Turn in your weapons, join the army and stop taking payments from Iran.

I agree with you that he has no interest in taking over Lebanon. Why everybody wants them to disarm. No mention at all about the Palestinians. The reason is US don't want the palestinians to disarm, they want them to stay in Lebanon. They will be granted the lebanese citizenship. If not voluntary, they will make it happen through civil war again. The real problems is Israel. But you guys are busy with everything except the main problem. Go back to when the civil war started in Lebanon and what was the purpose of it. Your war is continuous, till you solve the palestinians problem. So good luck.

The UN can not do ANYTHING without the Israeli controlled USA approval (because the US has a veto power). The Lebanese Army ONLY knows how to kill Lebanese and Palestinians (and Syrians in 1978) But, NEVER fired a shot at Israeli enemy invaders and occupiers.

We will liberate Lebanon when the pro Assad politicians are out of the government. For a sovereign nation, we must make alliances with legitimate governments, not governments massacring or oppressing their civilians. That crosses out Israel and Syria, to the politicians whose whims are at the command of these two nations, execution should be their punishment. We need a Lebanon that cares for Lebanon's interests first.

I wrote a commentary 2 hours ago and you print stupid sectarian hate comments but not mine. You should not be too concerned about my views because Very few Lebanese in Lebanon read Naharnet.
