About time

Stuff reports:

The political wing of Hezbollah in Lebanon, as well as the Houthi militant group in Yemen, have been designated terrorist entities by the New Zealand Government.

Hezbollah is a Lebanese Shia Islamist political party and paramilitary group that has been involved in a protracted conflict with Israel.

The paramilitary wing of the group was already designated a terrorist entity by New Zealand.

Glad we are realising that drawing a distinction between a political and military wing is stupid, as they are all the same people with the same aim.

The decision to grant the new designations have been called “wrong at every level” by pro-Palestine activist group the Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa.

No surprise, as they probably fundraise for them.

Well done to the Government for calling a spade a spade.

Maybe one day UNRWA will be designated also!
