Hezbollah More Dangerous to Lebanon Than Israel

by Eric on October 13, 2009

A Hezbollah leader’s home exploded in Tayr Filsi in Southern Lebanon killing five, including the terrorist leader and his son.  This is further evidence that Hezbollah is re-stocking weapons in civilian areas around Lebanon.  These are the people Jimmy Carter calls partners for peace.

President Shimon Peres spoke about the event, stating that Hezbollah is more of a safety threat to the Lebanese people than Israel.  From the NY Times:

A cache of munitions exploded in the house of a local Hezbollah official in southern Lebanon on Monday, producing conflicting reports of casualties. Security officials said the blast in the village of Tayr Filsi, on the southern bank of the Litani River, killed five people, including the Hezbollah official and his son. A Hezbollah spokesman denied that anyone had been killed and said the reason for the explosion was under investigation. Israel said the blast showed that munitions were being stockpiled in violation of the truce that ended a war between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006.
