Hizbullah accuses U.S. and Israel of manipulating UN reports

BEIRUT: Hizbullah accused Washington and Israel on Friday of manipulating UN reports to stir internal strife in Lebanon and Syria, while defending Syria and the search for truth and justice by the family of the late Lebanese Premier Rafik Hariri. The party's Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah lashed out at UN special envoy Terje Roed-Larsen's recently released second report on the implementation of Security Council Resolution 1559, saying, "The report is full of poisonous incitement aimed at ruining the relations between the various Lebanese factions."

Nasrallah was speaking in Beirut's southern suburbs during a massive rally held to mark Jerusalem Day, an honorary holiday created by the late Ayatollah Khomeini to call for the liberation of Palestine.

The sheikh alleged that Larsen's report falsely claimed that the government was committed to implementing Resolution 1559, stressing that the report was full of such lies and was meant to incite the Lebanese people against the Palestinians and Syrians, as well as pit the Lebanese against each other.

"When officials talk to us about their policies, they tell us exactly what they state in their ministerial statement; they are not with 1559, and the Cabinet confirmed this stance in its latest session," he said.

"However, the report claims the officials told Larsen in private just the opposite," he added. "Larsen wants to plant the seeds of suspicions and cause trouble."

Nasrallah further questioned how the report "was leaked to the Israeli press before it was presented to Kofi Annan and the international community."

Commenting on Nasrallah's speech, Annan's spokesman Stephane Dujarric said "Larsen's report is fully at the discretion of UN Security Council members ... We don't want to comment until they discuss Larsen's report on Monday."

Nasrallah criticized the UN report for "justifying all of Israeli border violations"

My Bad...its spelled a million different ways...sorry...

The word ‮ÍÒÈ Çááå‬ is transliterated in a number of ways. A scientific transliteration would be hizbu' llah . Hezbollah' is used by CNN and the BBC . It is also written as Hizbullah, Hizballah, Hizbollah, Hezbullah, and Hizb Allah, which is used by Al-Jazeera . "Hizb" is correct for general Arabic pronunciation, "Hezb" is closer to Persian. The 'h' is sibilant in Arabic, but a normal 'h' sound in Persian.

Hezbollah has a military branch known as Al-Muqawwama al-Islamiyya (in English: the Islamic resistance ), and is the possible sponsor of a number of lesser-known militant organizations, some of which may be little more than fronts for Hezbollah itself. These organizations include the Organization of the Oppressed, the Revolutionary Justice Organization, the Organization of Right Against Wrong, and Followers of the Prophet Muhammed.

What a strange world of shadows on shadows, when a terrorist front organisation for the Arab League Nations needs its own terrorist fronts.

Bernard Lewis refers to them as Hizb'allah which he translates as "army of God".

FYI

It's better to pay no attention whatever to what Hezbollah or any other devils say.
