Hizbullah Rejects Call by UN Secretary-General to Disarm
(Reuters) Dominic Evans - Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah dismissed on Saturday a UN call for his militant movement to disarm. Mocking a demand by visiting UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon that Hizbullah lay down its weapons, Nasrallah said he was happy that Hizbullah's military prowess was a cause for concern. Ban said in Beirut on Friday that he was "deeply concerned about the military capacity of Hizbullah." "All these arms outside of the authorized state authority, it's not acceptable," he declared.
