Hizbullah Slams Ban's Visit, Describes Feltman as 'Messenger of Evil'
2012-01-08
[An Nahar] Senior Hizbullah official Mohammed Yazbek slammed on Saturday United Nations
...a formerly good idea gone bad...
Chief the ephemeral Ban Ki-moon
... of whom it can be said to his credit that he is not Kofi Annan...
's scheduled visit.

"Ban, (U.N. Special Envoy) Terri Roed Larson, and the messenger of evil and conspiracy's (U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs) Jeffrey Feltman are unwelcomed in Leb," Yazebk said.

Ban is expected to stress to various officials the need to resolve the possession of arms outside the authority of the Lebanese state during his trip to Beirut on January 13.

Yazbek stressed that the U.S. is the "great Satan."

"It (U.S.) wants to control the world... but there's a strong axis that is willing to face its hegemony," the official said.

Yazbek noted that the "axis" is developing its scientific and defense abilities "which will impact the region in the foreseeable future."

In November, Hizbullah criticized Ban's report on the implementation of Security Council resolution 1701.

Five years after the expansion of UNIFIL's activities, it's time to carry out a strategic review of its mission, Ban said in his 17th report on the implementation of 1701.

Hizbullah said that the report is full of "false information" and indicates the international community's annoyance from "the Lebanese decision to reinforce its position against Israel."
