The Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah on Friday condemned Britain’s decision to outlaw its political wing, calling it an “insult” to the people of Lebanon that hurt the “feelings” of many of its followers.
The Iranian-backed Shi’ite group said it was a nonviolent “resistance movement against Israeli occupation” and that the decision was an “insult to the feelings, sympathies and will of the Lebanese people that consider Hezbollah a major political and popular force.”
“Hezbollah sees in this decision servile obedience to the U.S. administration, revealing that the British government is but a mere a follower in service of its American master.”
