Nasrallah Denies the Rumors
Following reports that he had survived a poisoning attempt, Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah would like us all the know that this was not the case.
The Hizbullah-run Al-Manar news agency reported Saturday that recent reports stating the organization’s secretary general, Hassan Nasrallah, escaped a poisoning attempt on his life were false.
Al-Manar aired an interview with Nasrallah via its internet website, in which the Hizbullah leader denied the rumors, though he confirmed that he was indeed ill.
Let me guess: he ate some dodgy Lebanese falafel?
So who was spreading these false rumors? (need I ask?)
In the interview with Al-Manar Nasrallah explained that “if research was done on the internet websites posting such unfounded information, it would reveal that they are all being run from that same dark room, and that their aim is to serve American-Israeli interests.”
He’s on to us. And on the subject, do you realize for how long I’ve been asking for some darn lights in here?

Shit, I wish we did have a dark room. He probably had some utterly embarassing medical complaint. Life-threatening constipation, sex toy stuck up the wazoo, something nasty.
Heh!
