Lebanon Embraces Iran
By Micah Halpern

Monday November 3, 2008

I've Been Thinking:

By all rights Lebanon should be one of the most reasonable and liberal and open Arab countries.
But just yesterday Lebanese President Emile Lahoud was in Iran talking to Ahmadinejad who heaped great praise and blessings on the Lebanese leader.

Here is an excerpt from the Iranian leader's blessing:
"Lebanon's enemies are weaker than in the past and the Lebanese nation can thwart all the plots and acts of hostility brought upon by the Zionist regime."

Lebanon sees just how important Iran is in the region. Lebanon sees Iran as an essential power which will support them and help Lebanon achieve their goals.
Iran is looking for friends and allies.
There is little doubt that the frolicking between the two countries is part of a carefully planned mutual mission.

Judging by press coverage, the Lebanese-Iranian mission does not appear to be very pro-Western.
