The Arab Gulf countries have agreed to blacklist Hezbollah as a terrorist group, but they are still studying ways to do that, undersecretary of Bahrain’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Hamad al-Amir told Al Arabiya on Wednesday.

Gulf Cooperation Countries, which include Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman were studying “correct measures” on how to officially blacklist Hezbollah, Amir said.

Bahrain blacklisted Hezbollah in April, becoming the first Arab state to do so after accusing the Lebanese group of backing and training radical Shiite groups working against Manama.

The decision by other Gulf countries came after Hezbollah openly declared its military involvement in Syria, helping the army of President Bashar al-Assad retake the town of Qusayr from rebel forces.

The Syrian conflict started with peaceful protests more than two years ago against Assad but morphed into a civil war which left at least 93,000 people killed, according to U.N. report in June.
Dhafir al-Ajmi, executive director of the Gulf Monitoring Group, said GCC should differentiate between Lebanese citizens who are sympathetic to Hezbollah and the group’s actual followers. He said the Gulf States’ action against Hezbollah may convince the group that “what is doing is wrong and could affect a big portion of the Lebanese people.”

GCC has previously deported Lebanese citizens under suspicion that they were aiding Hezbollah.

might as well help Israel to clear out all Palestine people :hitwall:

Let just not mix issues up, it isn't our fault that Hezbollah was the " resistance " of blah blah blah.. The GCC acted out for their own good.

good for you

lend some hand against us

the country you help in return will be very good for GCC interests
 
what difference does it make? have they black listed Al Nusra front?

if not, then it's simply good cop bad cop kind of thing.


a lot of the countries listed have a lot of explaining to do of their own -- without needing mention of names

We never recognized either Hezbollah or any terror group.

Peace :wave:

It's a shame that Lebanon, the Switzerland of the ME is hijacked by a terror group.

True, let just hope Lebanon will raise and shine once more.

Well done,all terrorist organizations should be blacklisted.

I'm quite sure that Turkey will fallow suit if needed.
 
They have been doing fun things to them from 1948

just for change give some of your land to people fighting in your country then

The problem in Lebanon,to many ethnic groups not willing to work together to form a stable country(like when Beirut was called the Paris of the ME)when it was like before the start of the first war.
 
So confusing problems in Middle Eastern.

How about Hamas?? FSA? Talibans in Qatar?
