Ramifications of disarming Hezbollah

The victory of the Hezbollah brings confidence to Lebanese, Syrians and Iranians.

If you are attacked but cannot defend yourself, the consequence is your doom. As long as you can defend and counter attack in retaliation, you can survive. Survival of the fittest!

Hezbollah should not be disarmed. Their military power and strategy are part of Lebanese security and there is a lot to learn from this war, especially about Israel's weaknesses.

If they could defend against Israeli air raids like they did on the ground, Israel would not dare attack them. The Hezbollah should now try to achieve air defence power. This will weaken the expansionists and strengthen the Arab countries.

Before the recent Israeli attack on Lebanon, I used to believe that Hezbollah people were terrorists but now after studying the situation I have found that they are protectors of Lebanese people. The Lebanese army is unable to protect the Lebanese, but Hezbollah is able to do so. That is the reason why the western world wants to brand them as terrorists. If Hezbollah is disarmed Lebanon can be occupied easily like Palestine and Iraq. The United States terrorise the Arab nations through Israel and recently it sold arms worth billions of dollars to the Zionist state.

May I ask President Bush how many children he needs to kill to keep the viability of his arms market?
