Hezbollah: Just Politics

HezbollahHezbollah's media relations people have their work cut out for them this weekend.

First, the LA Times updates the terror group's rearming efforts. But two more damning accusations are surfacing: Lebanon's communications minister has accused Iran of setting up a nation-wide wire-tapping system for Hezbollah. And Hezbollah figures were filming aircraft at Beirut airport.

Will these developments make it clearer to the organization's apologists that Hezbollah can't be treatead as a normal "political party?"

Consider the following: Political parties with "armed wings" follow in the footsteps of the Nazi Brownshirts. For scale, Hezbollah's wiretapping makes Watergate pale in comparison. As for the airport camera, Ya Libnon suggests an assassination may be in the works. Just politics, right?
