Iran Foreign Minister meets with French counterpart in Beirut

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki, whose country is a main backer of Hezbollah, met his French counterpart in Beirut on Monday for talks on resolving the crisis in Lebanon.

French Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy said earlier on Monday in Beirut it was important to maintain contacts with Tehran as part of efforts to resolve the crisis in Lebanon, where Hezbollah and Israel have been at war for nearly three weeks. France and Iran have called for an immediate ceasefire to halt the war between Hezbollah and Israel.

But of course…the Hisballers Hezbollah are in the process of getting their clocks cleaned – so OF COURSE a cease-fire is “needed” – anythiong to prevent an Israeli victory.

Iran is a significant, respected player in the Middle East which is playing a stabilizing role, French Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy said earlier Monday in Beirut.

Sheesh! That’s like the Vichy regime saying that Germany was a stabilizing influence in Europe in 1941 – and apparently comes from the same perspective if not actual descendent Froggish appease-surrender DNA.
