Listening Post - Hezbollah and the media - 31 Oct 08

[nilo723]

Nasrallah will do what Salahuddin did back in his days!

[Ibbe88]

There is nothing such as independent TV-channels. Every one is tied to a party, goverment, organisation or corporation. But still, al-Manar is still leading in this jungle of news. While others often support the terroristregime of Israel, al-Manar and a few others has taken the job to teach the masses what's true in this world. Al-Manar often let people call in and express their views in a unique way during shows and debates. Still the best way is to read several newspapers every day.

[andreaborman]

The Tv channel Al Manar is in Fact run and financed by Iran and Lebanon government Not by the Hezbollah Milita.Who cannot be identified publically on TV or vidio.

[HezbollahSoldier3]

ok u know what one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter alright nasrallah has never maid a lie all of his promises are received and when he says next war we are going into israel he means that that in my eyes is what a hero is

[samer721]

You can get AL-Manar Inside Israel. Its cool every body watches it and Israeli news channels take clips from it.

[gnarlyest]

Hezbollah = THE WORLDS HEROS! PERIOD!

[FATFATtea]

hezboullah =herooooooooo

[Ariji86]

The earth is already old. stop war or it's going to be exploded and everybody dies

[electango]

STOP RACIST HATE!

[joefarah2]

Hezbollah is a terrorist organization against Lebanon first and foremost because it's trying to make Lebanon like Iran. Then to a much lesser degree, to the international community.....

[serkturk]

its a legitimate resistance movement called terrorist because of lebanons i ternal racial and rfeligiouse intolerance towards shia muslims in general most of the anti hezbollah groups are funded by al qaida lovers in the salafi saudi royal family

[joefarah2]

It's an illegitimate movement that acts according to their own ideology. They believe in no state, no democracy and no human rights. They are first and foremost hated by Christians and all liberal moderate lebanese Muslims.

[electango]

It's an illegitimate group of death worshipping war mongerers supported by Iran.

[zizoubilly]

no, they are labelled as "terrorists" because they don't listen to the US+Israel, same to Hamas. Fatah are labelled as a "political party" because they are puppets. In the Arab world Hezbollah are seen as heroes by Sunni & Shia!!

[serkturk]

thats bullshit hezbollah could cleanse all other communitys in 7 days and declare an islamic state instanly if they wanted but they wont because they dont want to be in government that makes them more vulunerable then when they act as just a resistance movement with one foot in the political process

[hamou87]

Hezbola is great

[barlog20]

Hezbollah`s army owned devil Israel 2 years ago and his army only had guns.Israel army had tanks.America sends Billion of dollars and tanks,guns and fighter planes to Israel every year and they still got owned by a small army who only had guns.Them fake Jews is lame.

[SurferRosa79]

That's extremely well organized warmongery propaganda, I'm impressed.

[djoasis]

I love the Ad at the end. Thanks for that

[HarunKhan0]

Hezbollah is just trying to ease the process of globalization, just that they do it for muslims, even being minority shites. They resisted the Isreal war, shaking the entire Israeli parliment, good on ya!

[johnu78]

Watch my debate video, you won't be disappointed, I promise!

[swifteagle43]

i am surprised they havent shut down the satellite which broadcasts this

[BrownSugar4You]

can't tolerate freedom of speech hah ? you jewish nazi.

If you don't like almanar then don't watch it. We on the other hand love to watch it.

[mightyali]

you think USA is the only country has the capability to send satellites

[zizoubilly]

Hezbollah are FREEDOM FIGHTERS

[electango]

Hezbollah are war mongerers who get innocent people killed.

[zizoubilly]

Unlike the IDF they don't do it by purpose!!

[electango]

BS. Hezbollah glorifies war and all they offer the Lebanese is more death and more war. Hezbollah killed innocent Israeli Arab civilians in their war on Israel in 2006. Hezbollah is very bad for Lebanon.

[zizoubilly]

"Hezbollah is very bad for Lebanon" What?! They are the protectors of Lebanon...even though I am Sunni I support their cause 100%!! The only bad people are Fatah,whoever did 9/11 & 7/7!!

[electango]

Hezbollah is a puppet army of Iran. It works in the interests of Iran, not Lebanon. When Nasrallah ordered the killing of 10 Israeli soldiers and started the 2006 War, he caused 1200 Lebanese deaths and almost $10Billion in damage to Lebanese public infrastructure. You support that kind of stupidity?

[zizoubilly]

should the Israeli soldiers be there? NO!! My loyalty lies with my religon, NO-ONE or NOTHING else. IF Hezbollah target civilians by purpose then they are SCUM!

[electango]

The Israeli soldiers were in Israel, so of course they should have been there. The question was did Hezbollah act in the interest of Lebanon? Of course they didn't. They got a lot of innocent Lebanese killed. Like I said--Hezbollah is bad for Lebanon.

[zizoubilly]

what about all the occupied land? Since 1967 (I think), in 2000 they only pulled out of lebanon coz they had to....I have NOTHING against Jews they are referred to as "people of the book" and our prophet told us to respect them, they have lived with muslims for over a century in peace, why can't that happen now?

[electango]

If you have an enemy and you want him to leave land you claim is yours and you refuse to talk to him or show him any respect, how do you expect him to leave your land?

[zizoubilly]

well maybe that "enemy" shouldn't label them as "terrorists" maybe that "enemy" shouldn't be making more houses while destroying houses of others!

[electango]

Both sides label each other and both sides kill each other. That is no reason to make good faith tries to settle the dispute. Except that the Arab side sees the Jewish side as a cancer that must be destroyed. The problem is the Arab refusal to view the Jews as equal to the Arabs and worthy of respect.

[zizoubilly]

you are right it can be settled peacefully BUT many arabs hate the jews because of the current situation NOT because of their religion! Did you know the Leader of Iran met with Anti-Zionists rabbis?

[electango]

And many Jews hate the Arabs because of the current situation NOT because of their religion. The Anti Zionist rabbis have virtually no following among the Jewish people.

[sjafar48]

You are full of shit as high as I can stack it. It is you Zionist Jews who been making movies mocking the Arabs since 1940. It is you Zionist Nazi's are the one who are blood suckers who wants greater Israel. Dream on, you will be going to hell or your home in Russia.

[electango]

You can look at Gaza and see where you Islamic Death Worshipers are leading the Arabs. Thanks to the Iranian-Syrian puppet regime Hamas, Gaza is a garbage dump made up of rubble and sewage where the people have lost their jobs and their homes. And what do Hamas and Hezbollah offer the Arabs besides death and misery? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. While Israel gets stronger and stronger. Because Allah supports Israel. Read your Koran.

[sjafar48]

Yeah you are right, Allah support Isreal when they were lost for 40 years in the desert. The Jews crucified Jesus and been cursed ever since. The German the French and everyone hate you fucker and call you Hymies. Gaza maybe is a dump, but when the Jews live it is considered a whore house and prostitution garden.

[ultbeatlesfan]

No maybe. Gaza is a dump, a big slum, an open sewer, thanks to Hamas. Hamas has destroyed Gaza. At least before when Israel ran Gaza, the Palestinians had work and could support their families. Haven't you death worshipers done enough damage to the Palestinians? It's time for the Egyptian Army to take over Gaza again, put the Hamas mentally ill leaders in prison, and let Gaza live again. Enough with Iranian colonialism.

[serkturk]

its called resistance would you rather be a slave im a sunni and i think all sunnis are fucking useless look at our leaders they are all american owned thier anal passage gets rammed by the yanks on a daily basis fuck the royal pimps of saudi arabia

[electango]

It's called being puppets of Iran and getting lots of Lebanese killed you cunt

[sjafar48]

Well it is not a puppet to the Zionist filthy regime. If it was a pro Zionist you will be defending the organization like it was your mother. Death to the Zionist regime.

[electango]

No, it is a puppet of the Iranian and Syrian military dictatorships which promote a culture of death worship amongst the illiterates who live in Lebanon. Hezbollah is leading Lebanon towards becoming like Syria--a poor, backward, nation with no jobs for the people and a fascist dictatorship that rules by imposing a vicious secret police upon the people. Your kind of place.

[sjafar48]

Yeah I understand, they Hezbollah are living of American 15 billion dollars donation like the Zionist killers recieves from US. Just like their 6 million lies and Madoff who robbed the American of 50 billion all in the name of the Jews.

[ultbeatlesfan]

Death worshiping Hezbollah is funded by Iran's murderous totalitarian regime. The billions Iran gives Hezbollah is to kill innocent civilians and destroy Lebanon. They want Lebanon to be a gigantic slum just like Syria.

[serkturk]

yes because the jews and their american weapons had nothing to do with it you cunt

[gladiadorextremo]

there mad at al manar because its telling the truth fuck israel

[002eden523]

Well-organised resistance!!!Al-Manar survived Israel bombings during 2006 war.

[taklo69]

reply to global village voices: fox news is independent but somehow coincidentally they just seem to have known bias. So being an 'independent' media outlet doesn't necessarily mean its coverage is fair. Off course with al-manar one has a backbone for criticism if any of their opinions do not match yours.

[britethorn]

Thanks for the fresh perspective.
