Welcome Ahmadinejad!


(Asharq Al-Awsat-UK) Tariq Alhomayed - Contrary to everything that is being said about the Iranian president's visit to Lebanon, I believe that this is an important visit that will contribute to raising awareness in Lebanon and the region to the reality of Hizbullah and its subservience to Tehran, and the danger of following Iranian slogans. Hizbullah is welcoming a man that is opposed by half the people of Iran, and criticized by the Iranian conservatives more than the reformists due to the deteriorating economic conditions in his country. Nasrallah, who has excelled at corrupting the entire political process in Lebanon, is welcoming a guest that shares his hostility towards almost all Arab countries and the international community. Many in the region need to be shocked in order to see what is being plotted against them, and Ahmadinejad's visit is one such beneficial shock. This will help the Lebanese and Arabs see the danger that Hizbullah's subservience to Iran represents to Lebanon. The writer is the editor-in-chief of Asharq Al-Awsat.
