Hezbollah credibility shocker

Posted 03 Aug 2006 in Islam, terrorism

What? Hezbollah’s reports aren’t believable? You mean they’re not telling the truth? Terrorists are lying to the world?

If Hezbollah-run media are to be believed, then 35 Israel Defense Forces soldiers were killed or wounded in Aita Shaab, militants downed an Israeli helicopter and destroyed a house in which IDF soldiers were hiding, and IDF troops are always hit in the back because they are running away.

All these statements are baseless because – despite the impression Hezbollah has made for straight talk – credibility is not its strong suit.

Hezbollah’s reports have become less and less believable in recent days. On Monday, Al-Manar television – the central component of Hezbollah’s well-oiled media empire – reported that the organization had destroyed an Israeli ship off the coast of Tyre, which had some 50 sailors aboard – a charge the IDF dismissed completely.

It’s not clear what incident, if any, the report was referring to, and the Arab world has been asking questions. Al-Arabiya television asked Mahmoud Kamati, a member of the Hezbollah political bureau, about the Hezbollah claim and he repeated that an Israeli ship had been hit, but said no pictures were broadcast because visibility was poor.

I’m shocked. I mean, if you can’t trust Islamic militants bent on the death of every Jew on the planet, who can you trust?
