Hizbullah leader: US is 'conceited, haughty, arrogant' By Zeina Karam, The Associated Press BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - To deafening shouts of "Death to America," the leader of a Lebanese guerrilla group today said US conceit and foolishness will lead to its own demise. Speaking at a rally south of the Lebanese capital marking "Martyrs' Day," Hizbullah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah said America wanted to establish "unlimited hegemony" over the world. "But we believe that the new world order based on hegemony will not last long. The Americans are behaving in a conceited, haughty and arrogant manner, not in a sane manner, and when the strongman is ignorant and foolish, he will be killed by his own foolishness and conceit," Nasrallah said. Nasrallah criticized US President George W. Bush's speech to the UN General Assembly yesterday, in which he said all countries share an obligation to battle terrorism. "For every regime that sponsors terror, there is a price to be paid and it will be paid," Bush said. Bush did not single out any nation, but aides said his words were directed at Lebanon, Syria, Iran and other countries whose commitment to the anti-terrorism effort have come under scrutiny. ............................................ "Are they (victims) all (Osama) bin Laden, are they all al-Qaida organization, are they all Taliban? No," he added. Saudi dissident bin Laden and his al-Qaida organization are wanted by Washington for orchestrating the September attacks in the United States. Afghanistan's Taliban rulers are harboring them. Nasrallah urged countries to reject America's "aggression" against Afghanistan. "The important thing is not to surrender to fear and illusion, but to be realistic," he told the thousands who came to hear him speak. The Martyrs' Day ceremony is held by Hizbullah to commemorate the death of more than 1,200 of its guerillas in fighting with Israel during the Jewish state's 18-year occupation of southern Lebanon, which ended May 2000. jpost.com
