Hezbollah issues stern warning against targeting Mid-East Christians
2017-04-11
[ALMASDARNEWS] Hezbollah’s Media Relations released a statement on Sunday that offered condolences to the Egyptian people and to the families of the Coptic Christians killed in the Tanta terrorist attack.

"This continuous and escalating killings carried out by criminal gangs in the name of religion is one of the greatest catastrophes our Ummah (nation) has been witnessing," the statement read.

The Lebanese organization accused major powers and regional countries for aiding terrorist groups specifically disrupting the peace between the heterogeneous religious entities in the Middle East.

Hezbollah stressed that targeting Christians in their place of worship is a savage act that deviates away from the teachings in the Koran.

"This crime is part of a large scheme to displace Christians from the Sinai Peninsula and other areas across Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Leb, paving the way for sectarian and ethnic federalization in favor of the Zionist entity," Hezbollah warned.

Hezbollah concluded by reaffirming its support for the Egyptian people and peace inside the country.

#2  Following on from my comment on another topic, Hezbollah get that there is no mileage in antagonizing the West or Western friendly states like Egypt.

When you are fighting an enemy, don't go out of your way to find a new enemy.
