This is the guy we’re supposed to believe is going to disarm Hizballah? Lebanon’s PM thanks Hizbollah for its ‘sacrifices’.

BEIRUT: Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora thanked Hizbollah on Sunday for its “sacrifices” in its war against Israel.

“We are in a strong position and I thank the Sayyed for his efforts,” Siniora said when asked about a Saturday statement by Hizbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah calling on the government to take advantage of Hizbollah’s steadfastness against Israeli military might.

“I also thank all those who sacrifice their lives for the independence and sovereignty of Lebanon,” he added.
