American elites have always had a soft spot for Hizballah. Despite killing 300 marines, kidnapping Americans and possible having a role in 9/11, the group is never take to task by the US. We stood back and allowed Hizballah to takeover Lebanon. Now the Obama Regime is backing Hizballah controlled Lebanon against Israel. The dispute is over a maritime boundary that involves natural gas fields.
In the next few days Israel will submit to the United Nations its take on where its maritime economic border with Lebanon should be, as the two countries scramble for gas reserves estimated to be worth billions of dollars.
Israel’s position is due to be approved by the cabinet on Sunday; Jerusalem argues that Lebanon’s proposal includes major areas belonging to Israel.

The Lebanese also sent their version to the United States, which conducted an expert review and endorsed the document. A senior Foreign Ministry official told Haaretz that the American diplomat in charge of the issue was Frederic Hof, who was responsible for Syria and Lebanon under the former U.S. special envoy to the Middle East, George Mitchell. Hof has kept the Israel-Lebanon brief despite Mitchell’s resignation two months ago.
I’m sick of my country always backing Islamic interests. Why on earth are we backing Hizballah against Israel in a sea border dispute? This is crazy and just another example of the Islamic influence on the US government. I’m getting sick of it and can’t wait until we have an anti-Islamic government in power. Until then, we will continue enabling Islamic Imperialism, even against a close ally like Israel.
