(Asharq Al-Awsat-UK)Abeed Al-Suhaimy - Bahrain Wants Hizbullah Listed as Terrorist Group On Sunday, the Kingdom of Bahrain took a new step towards classifying Hizbullah as a terrorist organization, with the Bahraini government discussing a proposal submitted by the council of representatives to place the Lebanese party on its list of terrorist groups. Samira Rajab, minister of state for media affairs, confirmed that the meeting, headed by Prime Minister Khalifa Bin Salman Al Khalifa, discussed the proposal on Hizbullah. Bahraini MPs said the move came as a result of "Iranian-backed Hizbullah's increased activities, flagrantly interfering in the internal affairs of the countries of the region, becoming Tehran's arm to export its revolution."
