BEIRUT, Lebanon - Hezbollah on Friday rejected the deployment of U.S. warships off Lebanon, calling it a threat to the country that will not affect the militant group.
"We are facing an American threat against Lebanon," Hezbollah legislator Hassan Fadlallah said. "It is clear this threat and intimidation will not affect us."

I read the article and I didn’t see in there anyone was seeking the Hezbollah’s approval.
I was there and The lebanese people are sick of Hizbollah... they are Killing Christian MP’s.. even the Muslims In Beirut say enough and they are behind Harriri and Siniora
Hezbollah still remembers that 16-inch shampoo courtesy of the USS NEW JERSEY.
Hey hezzies!:
Reject THIS!
How exactly do they plan on “rejecting” the US Navy?
In Lebanon, we saw a sovereign nation occupied by the Syrian dictatorship. We also saw the courageous people of Lebanon take to the streets to demand their independence.
Our enemy saw the transformation in Lebanon and set out to destabilize the young democracy. Hezbollah launched an unprovoked attack on Israel that undermined the democrat government in Beirut. Yet, their brazen action caused the world to unite in support for Lebanon's democracy.
Together, we're going to make it clear to the world that foreign forces and terrorists have no place in a free and democratic Lebanon.
Time to make it happen, Mr. President!
Oh so you wantot play rough, fine, put 'em up!
talk all you want...shes got missles with your name on it.
It probably won’t affect them. The ships will cruise off Lebanon for a week or two then go away. Nobody will be landed and nothing will be fired.
Oh, well, then, we'll leave right away!
Hezbollah slams US military expedition

Well, then, I encourage to them to paddle out to the fleet and do something about it...

They reject it? How cute.
Lebanese Far the prettiest women in the Middle East...
U.S. Navy should be on the guard just in case Hezbollah has a few more Chinese C-802 antiship missiles.
I hope they keep the Phalanx guns should they get in sight of shore. I’m thinking it was an Iranian 802 that hit the Israeli warship last year. Several were killed IIRC.

guess they had the system off
Yep. Didn’t expect it. I think Hezbollah even took video of the launch. Iran’s missiles have now already killed Israeli sailors.
Maybe they meant to say, “denounce.”
ive not seen any operational changes that will affect reality on the ground
just constant recycling of the same attrition
