Hezbollah says 'proud' to be on the U.S. terrorist list
By DPA
Tags: Hezbollah, Iran, terror 

The Iranian-backed Lebanon-based guerilla movement Hezbollah said on Friday it prides itself on appearing on the United States' terrorist list.

"The U.S. administration has no right to give statements on nationalism and terrorism when it is making the peoples of the world, including the American people, pay the price for its wars and bloody policies," said a statement by Hezbollah.

Hezbollah's remarks came in response to the report released earlier this week by the U.S. State Department which accused Iran of providing aid to Palestinian "terrorist" groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, "Iraq-based militants," and Taliban fighters in Afghanistan.

The statement criticized Washington for its Lebanon policy and accused the U.S. of "provoking its allies in Lebanon against fellow citizens who support the resistance and the opposition."

Hezbollah slammed the U.S. as the biggest threat to international peace and stability.
