Al-Manar
11/03/2010 Once again, the United States did its best to confirm its "strategic alliance" with the Zionist entity…
Once again, the United States raised the voice to tell the whole world that the Israeli enemy is not only its favorite ally but even more…
Thus, US Vice President Joe Biden didn't hesitate to repeat from Tel Aviv threats and statements earlier delivered by Israeli officials against Lebanon, from the President Shimon Peres to the Defense Minister Ehud Barak without forgetting the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu…
In fact, Biden wants Israel and Lebanon to implement the international resolution 1701 that put an end to the Israeli war against Lebanon in 2006. But the reason is not to consolidate stability in Lebanon and the occupied territories. The goal is, too simply, to disarm Hezbollah!
Speaking at Tel Aviv University, Biden claimed that Hezbollah's weapons represent a threat to both "Israel and Lebanese civilians."
He stressed the persistence of Washington in supporting Lebanon's institutions and working on the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 "to stop the flow of arms to Hezbollah," according to his terms.
Even more, the US official pretended that Iran was the greatest threat to the region due to its alleged nuclear program and, of course, its sponsoring of the Resistance in Lebanon.
Meanwhile, Biden confirmed that Washington will send a new ambassador to Syria to enhance diplomatic relations. However, he called for keeping an eye on Damascus' acts that may jeopardize "the security of Israel and the region."
Biden implored Israelis and Palestinians to move beyond a diplomatic spat that has marred his trip to the region, urging the sides to waste no time in resolving their decades-old conflict despite daunting obstacles.
Biden used conciliatory language as he wrapped up a three-day visit to the area in an apparent attempt to get past the uproar sparked by an Israeli plan for new settlement construction in occupied Jerusalem.
Yet, one expression said by Biden summarized the whole story: "The US has no better friend than Israel"!
