The Lebanese Prime Minister Expects Us To Believe His Assurances?
This is a hoot. The Lebanese prime minister is telling the West not to worry about the $940 million in aid they received, and none of it will fall into Hezbollah's hands:
Lebanon’s prime minister urged world donors Thursday to help his country recover after Israeli bombing wiped out “15 years of postwar development” in 34 days of fighting with Hezbollah guerrillas.
About 60 governments and aid organizations were in Stockholm hoping to raise $500 million to help Lebanon rebuild roads, bridges and homes left shattered by the war.
Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Saniora strongly rejected suggestions the aid money would trickle down to Hezbollah and strengthen the group’s position in southern Lebanon.
“This idea, that it will be siphoned in one way or another to Hezbollah is entirely, completely, a fallacy,” Saniora said at a news conference.
Right. Has Saniora checked this with Nasrallah? Will he make the call for the Lebanese army to disarm Hezbollah before the peacekeeping force shows up? Will he disavow the call fromt he Lebanese government for their army to join with Hezbollah? Everything that has come from Lebanon recently has been in favor of Hezbollah. and it does not matter what the West does.
But here we are, idiotarians one and all, sending money to a regime that is firmly held onto by a terrorist organization. And the prime minister of that nation is trying to assure us that the terrorists will get none of it. Just like the weapons and munitions that Russia assured Israel would never be used on them; the same ones that were used on them in this past war. That is a fact that is going to haunt Putin when an Israeli delegation arrives in Russia to chew on his backside a bit.
If I were the president, I would kill the bill coming to him that allocates any funds to Lebanon, at all. They refuse to stand up to Syria and Hezbollah, and byu default Iran, too? Then they have made their bed. Let them lie in it. Maybe some day they will wake up. But they will never get the message until a number of nations cut off the money.
