Beirut - The United States said Wednesday there was clear evidence of arms smuggling across the Syrian border to terrorist groups in Lebanon, and accused Iran and Syria of playing a negative role in the country.
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations made the accusation after a closed Security Council meeting to discuss progress on a U.N. resolution that ended last summer's war between Israel and Hezbollah guerrillas backed by Syria and Iran. That resolution banned weapon transfers to Hezbollah.
Khalilzad said the United States had sent a clear message in the meeting on "the negative role that Syria and Iran are playing and called on them to cease and desist from their negative activities" in Lebanon.
He added that there was clear evidence of "arms transfers to terrorist groups" inside Lebanon, including Hezbollah, the Palestinian extremist group PFLP-GC and Fatah Islam, the al-Qaida-inspired militant group that has been fighting the Lebanese army for the past two months.

Do not try to beautify America's image on the expense of Syria and Hizbullah. The USA is the last country to talk about "positive roles". Now Milo, it's obvious you don't like Lebanon, so I suggest you stay right where you are.
We're cleansing the Lebanese population of jerks and dingbats.
Edit: Although I agree with you on some points, I do not trust the intentions behind your questions. Your questions aim at nothing but the belittling and ridicule of Lebanon and the Lebanese. You watch the news 24/7, cherry-pick the headline that suits you, and go trolling about it. Get a life!

Yes it is true.
Syria smuggles weapons to hezbollah and the palestinans, and fatah al islam.
Other wise where did the weapons come from, did they just magically appear......???
