Hezbollah: Olmert lost even more credibility after report By DPA The Hezbollah movement said last night that the Winograd Committee had caused Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to lose even more credibility, following the release of its report. "The Winograd Report will further corner Olmert and put more pressure on him and will make him lose the 2 percent of credibility left with his people," said Lebanese Parliament Member Hussein Haj Hassan of Hezbollah. Advertisement Hezbollah said it expected the report's conclusions to cause problems for Olmert. The Winograd Report would cause a "big problem inside Israel between the politicians and the army," Hassan said. "In reality, we have to tell the Israeli public at the end - with or without the Winograd Report - that Hezbollah won the battles against the strongest army in the region in July 2006," he said. When the partial Winograd Report came out last May, Hezbollah officials were quick to view its findings as evidence that Israel had lost the war. "The Winograd Report confirmed the inability of the Israeli political and military leadership to take the appropriate decision to confront Hezbollah during the summer war," said Sheik Hassan Ezzeddine, Hezbollah's most senior political officer in southern Lebanon.
