Hezbollah on Friday issued a statement on Friday slamming US President Barack Obama’s Thursday speech on US policy in the Middle East and North Africa .

“ The speech reflects US policies aiming to deceive public opinion and cover up US-Zionist crimes,” the statement said.

“The US administration was until recently the major ally and the biggest supporter of Arab dictatorships, while now it is trying to act like the best friend of the Arab people,” the statement added.

Hezbollah added that the US did not learn from its previous strategic failures in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan.

In a related development Hezbollah deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem accused the March 14 alliance of playing a role in the U.S.-Israeli scheme, “as they’re confronting the Resistance instead of confronting the Israeli enemy. They’re also targeting Syria ”

Hezbollah is considered by the US as a terrorist organzation

President Barack Obama delivered his speech on US policies in Middle East and Africa in which he outlined the U.S. position and its unwavering support for a set of core principles: opposition to the use of violence and repression; protection for universal rights including free speech, peaceful assembly, freedom of religion, equality for men and women; and support for political and economic change in the Middle East and North Africa that can meet the legitimate aspirations of people throughout the region.

He also addressed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying, “the borders of Israel and Palestine should be based on the 1967 lines.”

Obama also said the Syrian President faces the choice of either leading a democratic transition in his country or getting out of the way.

Obama on Wednesday sanctioned Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and six top aides over their crackdown on popular protests.

the reason HA acts above or outside lebanses law is because it views itself as an extension of Iran and not as a lebanese body. Its like america being above the law in countries they ocuppy…accountable to no-one but their leadership.

josephphdman,

i guess you can add to your long list of hezballah’s achievements one recent accusation of a major mischief on an international scale.

according to yesterday’s new york times, the families of victims of the september 11, 2001 attacks have filed a lawsuit against hezballah and iran, accusing them of assisting and monitoring al-qaida operatives before conducting their suicide attacks.

with every passing day evidence collected from all over the world is mounting against hezballah’s illegal and criminal activities worldwide.

the majority of the lebanese must wake up and distance themselves from hezballah before they drag the whole country down an isolationist and suicidal path.

So if Obama says Palestine should have its borders established based on the 1967 lines its a bad thing? Is that not what the Arabs wanted to begin with?
Next time HA wants to slam something let them slam the death of 27 people in Syria today.

Its a contradiction to what the Palestinians and Hamas actually want…..Prior to his death Sheik Ahmad Yassine leader of Hamas actually said he will not fight Israel if the y withdraw to the 1967 border. Hamas also said in 2009 that they will be ready to cooperate with resolustions regarding the 1967 border.

he would be against the suggestion of 67 border especially now because hamas and fatah have become one…somethign he was not counting on.

Just last week, Hamas strongman Zohar said that they will never recognize Israel so that future generations can continue the resistance until all of historic “Palestine” is reconquered.

So yes, you’re right that they will accept a state in the 1967 borders, but they will use it as a starting point for more “resistance” instead of actually achieving peace.

Oh look at you, acting like it’s a black and white situation. Either you’re with Israel and OBama or you’re with Hezbollah and Syria.

I condemn Syria’s actions against its own people AND I condemn Israel’s mistreatment of the Palestinians.

It’s possible.

HA is the largest terrorist organisation in the world, only second to Al Qaeda, had HA not been created, the Lebanese people would not be chastised by other countries of the world. Three out of the top 5, FBI most wanted are HA members. Get a grip HA and change your attitude now, otherwise you will be next on target list.
HA stop supporting oppressive regimes like your mates in Syria and support democracy and peoples freedom to express their opinion.

the only language that hezballah understands is unfortunately shear force!!! they learned this rude lesson years ago when the lebanese government abandoned the people in the south after allowing the palestinians to set military bases there and launch guerilla attacks against the israelis.

the people in the south predominantly shia got caught in the middle between the israelis and the palestinians.

hezballah with the help of iran and syria started heralding the resistance movement in the south by arming the shia population and fought many battles against the israelis and their proxies along with the palestinians until they kicked all of them out of the south before the year 2000.

after the year 2000, the purpose of hezballah’s weapons changed drastically from advancing the lebanese resistance cause to protecting their own state from the intrusive lebanese state and paying off their debts to syria and iran by promoting their respective regional political agendas.

if you want hezballah to drop syria and iran and level with the majority of the lebanese population who does not jive with them; this majority along with the government’s military institutions at present weak and intimidated must show them superior political and military strength, and probably forge foreign alliances to counter syria’s and iran’s influence in order to bring them back willingly or unwillingly to their lebanese senses.
