Hizbullah Dismisses Reports Published by Reuters

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah's media office issued a statement on Saturday stressing that the party does not make statements to the press under the so-called “Hizbullah sources” and has therefore denied reports published by Reuters in that regard.

“Hizbullah's media office reminds that the familiar media policy we follow never uses the so-called 'Hizbullah sources' in our statements, and we do not use 'sources close to Hizbullah,'” the party's media office said in a statement.

“A report (citing Hizbullah sources) was published by Reuters commenting on the speech of Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah during a rally commemorating the annual Hizbullah Martyrs Leaders' Day. We emphasize that none of Hizbullah's officials made a statement of this kind,” said the statement.

Quoting "sources familiar with Hizbullah's thinking", Reuters reported on Friday that “Nasrallah's statements aimed to deliver a message to U.S. President Donald Trump.”

Reuters has also quoted the source as saying that “Hizbullah is not worried about the arrival of Trump to the presidency but has rather called him an idiot and has drawn “red lines” to prevent any threatening action against Lebanon or the party.”

The source added: “Remarks made by Nasrallah earlier this week were aimed at delivering a message to the new US administration led by Donald Trump that Hizbullah might target US interests by striking vital sites in Israel.”

According to Reuters, Trump and his administration have used rough rhetoric earlier against Iran, Hizbullah's patron, to support its Israeli enemy, including an "official warning" to Tehran after test-firing a ballistic missile which the US said violates a nuclear deal.

Unless it comes from the president of the lebanese islamic republic, it is not an official hezbollah source.

or it has to come from the ayatollah itself.

Why would anyone so called sources speak to a Zionist media such as reuters?

Propaganda and fabrication, anyone can write on their articles "Hezbollah sources" without any names or official statements.

OMG ! OMG ! OMG!

Even on an article regarding a report by Reuters, I find you _mowaten_ spamming, trolling, and terrorizing other posters. What kind of creature are you? New evidence surfaces by the minute that you are a paid poster but the question remains who pays you and for what exact purpose? Is it the Iranian embassy, is it the revolutionary guard, is it the syrian intelligence or the ex-KGB? These questions must be answered by you and NOW if you have an ounce of credibility left.

Of course It is very credible. Hizbollah is a very structured (terrorist) organisation, The members are not allowed to talk to the press without going through the official communication channel which is represented by Al Manar. The problem is that much is censored in parties where the cult of personality is the norm... and people sometimes want to go through unofficial channels in order to go around the censorship. Reuters isn't used to lying or manipulating. They are very professional ans serious in their work. So who would you believe?

Thumb chrisrushlau 18 February 2017, 19:53

Reuters is the official unofficial Israeli news service. They only lie if Israel's security and legitimacy depend on it, or if they have nothing better to do at the moment.

This comment remains published and it profoundly shocked me

Please pick up your trash, don't leave it on the side of the road. "

This was about the body of young man, maybe a teenager being assassinated inside Lebanon for possibly belonging to Daesh. Of course, nobody knows whether he was or not he was a criminal. If he was, he didn't get a trial, and more importantly he was a human being who should be treated with respect. Until today, I thought that only Daesh members and followers desecrated corpses, spoke rubbish of who they consider as ennemies of islam, but it appears that they are not. And the person who posted this comment has the same mentality as Daesh terrorists !

جريمة أخلاقية هزّت لبنان: الشيخ هيثم عيسى يتفنّن في تعذيب ولديه

في آخر إطلالة تلفزيونية لرجل الدين المعمَّم، ختم برنامجه بالقول: “أين الدولة، أين الدولة ؟”، حتى استجابت الدولة اللبنانية لمطلبه، وتكشف أن من كان يعرّف عن نفسه بأنه متخصّص في الفلسفة والقرآنيات و”طارِد للجنّ والشياطين” تحوّل إلى شيطان فعلاً!

Mowaten is the modern day version of Joseph Goebbels who said “ “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

Israeli military openly declare they want to attack lebanese army positions in the next war against lebanon, how can you honestly be against the resistance in the current context?
