From Crossing the Rubicon2: Hezbollah, Continued, this is Barbara Newman, a senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, stating the truth about Hezbollah:
Hezbollah doesn’t play politics the way we think of it. Its members are devoutly dedicated to the creation of a theocracy in Lebanon similar to that in Iran and to the eradication of the “Jewish entity” — they don’t even say Israel is a state — and to the obliteration of all U.S. influence in the Middle East. We are the “Big Satan” to them and Israel is “the little Satan.”
Those who advocate the position that Hezbollah can be brought into a moderate role by dealing with it politically, have never heard the speeches of its charismatic chief, Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah when he calls for death to America. It’s like Chamberlain when he went to Munich and had never read Mein Kampf. These people mean what they say.
