Hezbollah is talking about suing the US government and Lebanese NGOs that accept American money.
The reasoning behind this is that the US, through these NGOs, is slandering the organization and tarnishing its image.
The gist of the claim is that the US, through the NGOs, is brainwashing Lebanese youth against the party and intervening in internal Lebanese politics. The irony of this isn’t lost on most commentators, given that, allegedly, major donations to the party originate in Iran.
Pot, meet my friend, kettle.
It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.
What? Where do you get your information from? The BBC? I haven't heard about this..educate me please..
ReplyDeleteIn Trinidad we say, "De Pot callin' de kettle black!"
This came from sources within the NGO field.
ReplyDeleteApparently they're looking into it at the moment.
It's a case of waiting and seeing what happens at the moment.
I don't think anyone will be willing to comment as yet.
