Looks like the Hezbo…

Looks like the Hezbollah demonstration in Lebanon hit a bullseye on at least one of its targets.

The United Nations must recognize Hezbollah as a force to be reckoned with in implementing the U.N. resolution calling for the withdrawal of all Syrian forces from Lebanon and the disarmament of the country’s militias, Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Tuesday.

He was responding to a question about the disarmament of Hezbollah, which showed its strength Tuesday at a huge pro-Syrian rally in Beirut attended by hundreds of thousands of people who chanted anti-U.S. slogans. Two huge banners read in English: “Thank you Syria” and “No to foreign interference.”

Annan said the world needs to accept that in every society different groups may hold different views.

“Of course, we need to be careful of the forces at work in Lebanese society as we move forward,” he said.

Ah yes, just as we were careful and sensitive to those anti-Semitic forces at work in Germany after WWII? After all, they’re just folks who hold a different view.

Oh please.
