Hezbollah Leader Nasrallah Meets With Ahmadinejad in Syria

Barack Obama nominated a US ambassador to Syria this past week after a 5 year absence. The US recalled its Ambassador in the wake of the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri and speculation over Syrian involvement. The UN investigation is still ongoing.

Hassan Nasrallah (far right) has made few public appearances since 2006.

Hezbollah terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah made a rare appearance today in Syria at a dinner with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
The BBC reported:

The head of the Lebanese Shia Islamist movement Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, has made a rare public appearance in the Syrian capital, Damascus.

Sheikh Nasrallah attended a dinner with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Iran’s President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

He is under an Israeli death threat and makes very few appearances in public. When he addresses Hezbollah, he does so by video from a secret location.

Both Syria and Iran provide the group with financial and military support.
