| LTC Peachblossom (OP) User ID: 89830 08/03/2006 08:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well, I know that's not true, because Australia also lists them as a terrorist organisation. Quoting: beezleThe page says that US, Canada and Israel lists the Hezbollah as a whole as terrorist organization. In addition, UK, the Netherlands and Australia lists the Hezbollah External Security Organization as a terrorist organization. EU lists Hezbollah's senior intelligence officer as a terrrorist, otherwise no listing. I must say I was a little surprised, given the way this war has been presented in the media.

| LTC Peachblossom (OP) User ID: 89830 08/03/2006 05:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I guess it could be a good idea for news people to be more specific when they talk about Hezbollah. Obviously, for most branches of this organization, most people in the world agree they have nothing to do with terrorism at all. Only the US, Canada and Israel thinks that the organization as a whole in considered a terrorist organization. Consequently, "targeting Hezbollah" is a nonsense expression it seems when talking about the so called "war on terrorism". At least if you are trying to speak to the international community.

Peace. /LTC Peachblossom It is a case of projection. Israel controls both the US and UK governments. Don't know how they do it, proly with blackmail. And they are the only terrorist organization on this planet. Remember how many times they caught white (american,israeli UK??) soldiers dressed as terrorist in cars packed with explosives? And the cars used in bombings that they call 'suicide bombings' are cars stolen in the US. |

| ... User ID: 46032 08/12/2006 12:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Then the odds, a gazillion countries to 3, say Hezbollah's not a "terrorist" organization. In fact, the odds, as oddly one-sided as they are, say something odd is going on between Israel, Murka, and Canada here. |

| Ningishiddza User ID: 124957 08/12/2006 12:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was a little lazy so I just checked Wikipedia: Quoting: LTC Peachblossom"Hezbollah is considered by some (including the Lebanese government) to be a resistance movement and by 3 countries (U.S., Israel and Canada) to be a terrorist organization. It was formed to combat the Israeli occupation following the 1982 invasion of Lebanon [7], with the additional aim of transforming Lebanon into an Islamic republic." Interesting, don't you think? Peace. /LTC Peachblossom Not as interesting as the fact that the US Snake Department did not classify the Taliban as a terrorist ogranization, or that the US Snake Department never classified Afghanistan as a terrorist state or a terrorist-sponsoring state, eventhough Billary Clinton launched a round of cruise missiles to destroy al-Qaida camps in Afghanistan. Of course, the reason the Taliban and Afghanistan were never classified as such is because by law, it would prohibit US oil companies from engaging in business in Afghanistan, like negotiating rights for oil pipelines to transport oil out of Central Asia. |
