The Problem Is Hizbullah
(Washington Times) Ziva Dahl - The U.S.' Lebanese strategy of providing training and advanced military aid to the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) is based on the fallacy that it will promote stability and prevent Hizbullah from taking over the country. Lebanon already is Hizbullah country and a wholly-owned Iranian subsidiary. Paradoxically, America is essentially arming Hizbullah, an Iranian proxy and U.S.-declared terrorist group. Hizbullah chief Hassan Nasrallah describes the LAF as a "partner" and "pillar" to Hizbullah. The writer is a senior fellow at the Haym Salomon Center.
