(Ha'aretz) Zvi Bar'el - Dalal al-Bizri, a Lebanese sociologist who lives in Egypt, attacked Hizballah in a recent column in the London-based Al-Hayat.

"Before the president of Iran declared that he wanted to erase Israel from the map, what were Hizballah demonstrators shouting, and are continuing to shout? 'Death to America and Death to Israel.'...And now, it turns out that Israel is not the danger that threatens the region and its residents."
