LOL this made me laugh! way to go Abboud!

_________________
The interview between a Fox News interviewer and the Lebanese
Ambassador to the U.S., Mr. Farid Abboud.

Fox Interviewer: Mr. Ambassador, do you consider Hizbollah a
terrorist organization ?

Abboud: Yes, Sharon is a terrorist !

Fox: Mr. Ambassador, this was not my question. I asked you about the
operations of Hizbollah in the targeting and killing of innocent civilians. How do
you view Hizbollah ?

Abboud: Yes, Sharon the terrorist has killed thousands upon thousands
of civilians. He is the biggest terrorist out there !

Fox: Mr. Ambassador. Please answer my question. Do you consider
Hizbollah a terrorist organization or not ??? Are you against the killing of innocent
civilians?!

Abboud: Of course I am against the killing of innocent civilians. You
have to define who the innocent civilians are. Sharon, the terrorist has killed many
thousands upon thousands of innocent civilians and he is continuing to do so !

Fox: But what about Hizbollah ? Are you telling us that Hizbollah never
killed any civilians or plotted to kill any innocent civilians ?

Abboud: Hizbollah is a resistance movement. They have a place in the
Lebanese parliament and they are fighting for justice and for a good cause. If there were
innocent civilians hurt in the process, they are a casualty of war. Hizbollah does not target
civilians on purpose, unlike the war monger, Sharon, whose only targets have been civilians,
including children !!!

Fox: Mr. Ambassador, does this mean you condone the suicide bombers?!

Abboud: I do not condone the actions of the war criminal Sharon !!!

Fox interviewer (with apparent frustration): Mr. Ambassador, please
stop evading my questions and answer them directly ! Do you condone the suicide bombers ?!

Abboud: I do not condone the killing of innocent civilians, but we
have to define who is an innocent civilian and who is not !!! If a Palestinian suicide bomber
kills a bunch of Israeli soldiers who are committing atrocities against the defenseless Palestinian
population, do you consider these soldiers as innocent civilians ???

Fox interviewer (sighing): Mr. Abboud, do you recognize Israel's
right to exist ?

Abboud: Yes, I recognize PALESTINE'S right to exist !!!

Fox interviewer (no words to describe his face): Mr. Ambassador.
Please stop this aversion in answering and answer our specific questions ! Do you recognize
Israel's right to exist or not ?!

Abboud: Israel already exists sir. It does not need my recognition.
It is the recognition of Palestine to exist that should be addressed !!!

Fox: Mr. Ambassador, why are you so one sided and biased in answering
our questions ???

Abboud: Sir, it is you who is very one-sided and biased in your
questioning !!!

Fox interviewer (totally at a loss of words): Mr. Abboud, Lebanese
Ambassador to the United States, thank you sir for your time and the interview !!!

It's an interesting tactic. Apparently Erekat did something similar on Newsnight last week.
