Our Favorite Part of this AP Story is the Phrase "Hezbollah's representative in Iran"

Hezbollah wants to murder all the Israelis in Israel:

Hezbollah's representative in Iran struck a defiant tone Monday, warning that his Islamic militant group plans to widen its attacks on Israel until "no place" is safe for Israelis.Hossein Safiadeen also reinforced earlier threats by Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah to widen the scope of attacks, which have included unprecedented missile strikes deep into northern Israel.
"We are going to make Israel not safe for Israelis. There will be no place they are safe," Safiadeen told a conference that included the Tehran-based representative of the Palestinian group Hamas and the ambassadors from Lebanon, Syria and the Palestinian Authority. "You will see a new Middle East in the way of Hezbollah and Islam, not in the way of Rice and Israel."

(1) That's a really great resistance group that the Arab and Muslim world has developed. Promising to hunt down all Israelis and murder them - how very resistance-oriented.
(2) No, passing on this Guardian story really never gets old.
(3) In her surprise visit to Beirut today, Secretary Rice praised Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Saniora for his courage. All well and good, but maybe she could have found a way to be a little more circumspect on the same morning that Hezbollah - which everyone seems to forget is actually a member of Saniora's government - threatened to murder all Israelis everywhere.
