Mansour Urges Extraordinary Cabinet Session over EU Decision on Hizbullah
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Caretaker Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour has called for an emergency cabinet session to take a stance from a European Union decision to blacklist Hizbullah's military wing.
In remarks to several newspapers published on Tuesday, Mansour said: “The cabinet should hold an extraordinary session because this issue is linked to (Lebanon's) political life in general and would have repercussions” on the country.
“We should take the appropriate decision,” he added.
He warned that Israel would now find an EU-backed excuse to hit Hizbullah bases in Lebanon.
The EU's 28 foreign ministers reached the decision unanimously on Monday.
The action came after prolonged diplomatic pressure from the United States, the Netherlands and Israel, which consider Hizbullah a terrorist organization.
Mansour promised to follow up the issue diplomatically.
But he reiterated that although the decision was issued by the EU, it was the result of heavy pressure exerted by the Jewish lobby with the participation of anti-Hizbullah Lebanese politicians.
He called on the Lebanese to unify and avoid further differences which he said would affect the government formation efforts negatively.

Yes, "we", the lebanese people agree that our government should convene asap to take the appropriate action against the EU (Expired and Useless) countries who listed HA (Hussain Army) on the terror list. No retaliatory measure should be spared including but not limited to: freezing their assets, curtailing their banking transactions, boycotting their goods and services and replacing them with Iranian made products, and harassing Europeans at our ports and airports and not let them smoke. This decision was written by American hands using Israeli ink and was sealed by the Takfiri-Harriri-Hakimi alliance. As our beloved SHN said last year " "لائحة الإرهاب تبعكم بلوها وشربوا ميتها". Tfeh.....

Another quote from Mansour today....
"The European decision will have its repercussions in Lebanon and there are local factions that played a negative role in this respect."
Yes of course, blame local factions opposed to Hezbollah for the blacklisting. It has nothing to do with their terrorist activities in Cyprus, Bulgaria, Thailand, India, Azerbaijan, Nigeria, Argentina.... on and on and on.

Let's see:
Hezbollah's existence is to deter Israel from attacking Lebanon
Yet, this decision will give Israel an excuse to attack Hezbollah who is the deterrent for Israel not to attack Lebanon
How could Hezbollah be a deterrent if Israel is looking for excuses to bomb it?
You lost me Minister Mansour.
