On Kalam An-Nas on the Lebanese Forces' TV yesterday (LBC TV), the host, Marcel Ghanim (who was most intimate, and attended dinners and lunches, with Rustum Ghazalah) asked a Saudi propagandist this question: "Does Hizbullah serve the Syrian-Iranian axis in Lebanon." The Saudi guest answered: "Yes, Hizbullah serves the Syrian-Iranian axis in Lebanon." He then asked an American fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy to analyze the Lebanese situation. The Saudi and American guests were the "objective analysts" on the show. (The LBC-TV English-to-Arabic translator is the best there is. She is superb.)
