(KCNA) -- The United States sustained shameful defeat in the Lebanon war. What the U.S. pursued in the war was to wipe out the Hezbollah force at a blow according to its strategy of "anti-terrorism" and to expand the American-style "democratization" in the Middle East region. However, any positive situation for the American-style "democratization" has not been created in the region but its prospect become gloomy.
The Middle East countries came to realize clearly the aggressive nature of the "anti-terrorist war" of the United States and the bellicosity and brutality of the Bush administration through the war and held higher the anti-U.S. banner. It eloquently proves the political fiasco of the United States in the war. “The Syrian President stated that the "conception for new Middle East" conceived by the United States and Israel is a delusion and on the verge of bankruptcy owing to their defeat in the war.” | The Syrian President stated that the "conception for new Middle East" conceived by the United States and Israel is a delusion and on the verge of bankruptcy owing to their defeat in the war.
The United States and Israel also suffered ignominious military defeat. In accordance with the scenario worked out by the U.S., Israel mobilized tens of thousands of armed forces and latest war equipment for 30-odd days to launch vigorous attacks on Hezbollah in the air and on the ground and sea. The Hezbollah guerrillas, which had neither tanks nor aircraft, were very poor but gained the supremacy over the Israeli army with their stubborn resistance and tactical advantage. The war showed Israel could not subdue the Hezbollah force and the escalation of the "anti-terrorist war" through the Lebanon war resulted in further tightening the windpipe of the U.S. |
