Hizbullah: Israel Prime Suspect in Lebanon Crimes, Ban Should Have Condemned it
Hizbullah on Thursday criticized U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon for not condemning Israeli spy networks in his 10th report on the implementation of Security Council resolution 1701.
"Through its spy networks in Lebanon, Israel is not only responsible for crimes and attacks committed during the July 2006 war and subsequent wars, it is also the prime suspect in many crimes against Lebanon”s internal security," Hizbullah said in a statement.
It said the party hoped that the report would clearly indicate the danger of such Israeli acts and their violation of Lebanese sovereignty.
Hizbullah described the decisions and positions of the U.N. chief and Security Council resolutions as biased in favor of Israel, accusing them of covering up the Jewish state”s crimes.
"It would have been appropriate for the Secretary General to condemn the Israeli acts and hold the Jewish state fully responsible for these crimes and their consequences," the statement said.
