Lebanon to request EU not to blacklist Hezbollah,

Share:

hezbollah parade 10Lebanon President Michel Suleiman tasked caretaker Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour to Ask the European Union not to name the Shiite militant Hezbollah group a terrorist organization.

“After deliberating with caretaker Prime Minister [Najib Mikati] it was decided to task [Mansour] to ask Lebanon’s Representative at the European Union, to notify the EU General Commission of the Lebanese government’s request not to include Hezbollah on the blacklist,” the presidency media office announced on Thursday.

The presidency described Hezbollah as “one of the main components of the Lebanese society.”

On Wednesday, Al-Arabiya reported that the EU is leaning towards “unanimously” approving putting the military wing of the Lebanese Shiite party on the international terrorist list , a move it has long avoided despite U.S pressure.

Hezbollah has been on the United States terror blacklist since 1995, after a series of anti-American attacks including the bombing of the US embassy and Marine barracks in Beirut in the 1980s.

The move was bolstered by Germany’s policy change after long resisting calls to list Hezbollah for fear it could destabilize Lebanon.

Germany said it was pushed toward declaring Hezbollah a terror group by the 2012 attack in the Black Sea resort of Burgas in Bulgaria.

On Wednesday, Bulgaria’s interior minister said new evidence has bolstered its case implicating Hezbollah in the bus bombing that killed five Israeli tourists, the bus driver and alleged attacker.

      I know it would be convenient for you if Israel were allied with Iran and Hezbollah because you hate Israel and Jews, because you’re prejudiced. However, please note that Iran has for some decades been Israel’s arch enemy and threatened to kill us all. In addition, Hezbollah fires rockets at Israeli civilians and wishes to wipe out the country. There was a WAR between Israel and Hezbollah IN Lebanon. Do you live in Lebanon? Do you live on planet Earth???? Apparently not.

Well game over because its politics once again and its innocent people who pay the price.

          You ask yourself whether you are more likely to doubt the word of Israel or a Jew on the subject of the Middle East and see what you come up with brother. I am aware of what you are talking about; The Iran Contra Affair. That was a one off and was done via the USA when Israel still hoped to repair relations with Iran. I still believe in the alliance of minorities but alas it isn’t true. They’re picking on us to gain favor in the Arab world, much like Poles and Irishmen in America picked on Jews after the great immigration in order to seem more like the majority and less like a hated minority.

    Fine, yellow-list them then.

    If the West is Hizbullah’s arch-enemy, if the West is the Greater Satan, if the West is so irrelevant to you, if you are self-sufficient and do not need help from anybody whatsoever (reiterated emphatically on several occasions), then what the hell does it matter to you, you hypocrites, whether the West blacklisted your or not?! The color spectrum is infinite, choose a color and color-list the West yourselves, how about that?

    What Sulieman meant was:
    ‘Dear UN. They are “one of the main components of the Lebanese society.” … please note … the one pulling the strings since the last election. We wish they would disappear, but can’t get these Iranians to leave, and you haven’t had any success with El Supremo yourselves. So, try to keep it quiet for us? For now? Maybe ??? Please … (whimper simper wimper)’
