Iranian thug dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took a trip to Beirut this week and gave a speech to Hezbollah. He purposely gave his speech in Southern Lebanon which is only 2.5 miles from the Israeli border.

He told the cheering crowd of radical Muslims that “The Zionists will not last long.”

“The whole world should know that the Zionist will eventually disappear and Bint Jbeil will remain alive… The occupier Zionists have no choice but to return to their original homelands.”

That’s Obama’s cue to tell him the door for negotiation remains open.

Hezbollah gunmen seized control of west Beirut on Friday after a third day of battles with pro-government foes in the Lebanese capital pushed the nation dangerously close to all-out civil war.

An explosion targeted a U.S. Embassy vehicle Tuesday in northern Beirut, killing at least three Lebanese and injuring an American bystander and a local embassy employee.

The blast, which damaged the armored SUV and several other vehicles, took place just ahead of a farewell reception for the American ambassador at a hotel in central Beirut.

No Americans were in the car, which was carrying two Lebanese employees of the embassy.

The bombing, which came as President Bush and Rice toured the Mideast, was the first attack on U.S. diplomatic interests in Lebanon since the 1980s, when the country saw some of the deadliest terror attacks against Americans in U.S. history.
