Hezbollah rants, raves, makes faces
 The leader of Lebanon's Shia group Hezbollah has warned that no one should conspire with the United States against his organisation.
| "Nope. Don't even think of it..." |
Shaikh Hasan Nasrallah's comments on Sunday came amid tension between his group and anti-Syrian politicians, some of whom are calling for disarming Hezbollah. "Whoever dreams about getting rid of Hizb Allah in any position is mistaken," Nasr Allah said in a speech at a graduation ceremony for 1300 Hizb Allah members and supporters.
| Sounds like they've got to be careful starting their cars... |
Nasr Allah criticised US ambassador to Lebanon Jeffrey Feltman and Assistant US Secretary of State David Welch, who have been accused by Hizb Allah of interfering in Lebanese affairs. Welch told Lebanon's LBC Television on Thursday that Hizb Allah should not be in the government and that the United States does not consider it a militia but a terrorist organisation. "Whoever wants to work to get rid of Hizb Allah will repent it and will be mistaken," Nasr Allah said.
