Hezbollah Now Firmly in Control of Lebanon

There is no other way to say it or try to sugar coat it.

They now have veto power over anything the elected government wants to do.

The ruling party led by Fuad Siniora caved into the demands, portrayed as a deal brokered by Arab mediators from Saudi Arabia, made by Hezbollah while getting nothing in return. I predict very dark days ahead for the large Christian population inside of Lebanon and, really, for any Sunni Muslims, since Hezbollah is a Shiite sect.

Of course Iran and Syria were the first to send their congratulations.

I wonder what kind of pie-in-the-sky statement the Obamamessiah will make about this if any. Given his complete lack of knowledge of anything outside of Chicago, I doubt he even realizes what possible dire consequences this agreement has. Iran has, once again through its proxies, managed to take over a country with impunity. Now with both Lebanon and Syria basically Iranian satellite nations, and more western governments deciding that Hamas is just a little bitty terrorist group and therefore worthy of talking to, Israel is once again back in the crosshairs.

The only thing that can delay the looming conflict between Israel and its neighbors again is if the Hamas and Hezbollah gangs go after each other, which would probably be short-lived since their hatred of Israel is greater then their hatred of each other. After they get rid of Israel they will return to the job of settling their centuries-old conflict over which group is the true descendants of the blood god they worship.
