Lapid Calls on Europeans to Ban Hizbullah
(Jerusalem Post) Gil Hoffman - Yair Lapid, leader of the opposition Yesh Atid party in Israel, met on Thursday in Amsterdam with ALDE, the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, a coalition of European centrist parties that champion liberal democratic values. "I am here to convince centrist parties in Europe to take the lead in ending the fake distinction between a military and a political wing of Hizbullah because that distinction just doesn't exist," Lapid said. "Hizbullah is one terrorist organization and it should be banned entirely." The idea that "in Europe, Hizbullah can raise funds, open offices and act freely is absurd."
