Shalom: 'Grave Concern' Over Hizbullah Takeover of Lebanon

Deputy Prime Minister Silvan Shalom expressed grave concern Saturday over the real possibility of an Iranian-controlled Hizbullah regime taking control in Lebanon in the coming weeks. Shalom expressed the warning after an announcement by Lebanese Druze leader Walid Jumblatt that he would throw his party's support behind Hizbullah, as factions in Lebanon scrambled to build a new coalition.
Hizbullah “will no longer be merely a terrorist group operating with Iran's backing, but a terrorist group in control of the country,” Shalom said at an event in Bat Yam. “This is a dangerous development that requires Israel's close attention. We will be prepared for all future developments.”
 Reacting to Jumblatt's announcement, Lebanese residents flocked to stores and markets to stock up on supplies. Posters and anonymous phone calls to residents of Beirut warned them to leave the city because of expected upcoming unrest. One university student told a Lebanese newspaper that he had received a text message warning him to leave the city, and that many of his friends had received one as well.
“Hizbullah is a party sponsored by Iran. Has anyone thought of what will happen to us if they take over? We will turn into Gaza,” Jaja said.
"Hizbullah" literally means "the party of Allah". Need anymore be said?
