Hezbollah’s Loose Lips

Here’s a Fox News report that quotes Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah saying something intriguing for a change:
Nasrallah said he was open to a package deal in which the two Israeli soldiers, along with a third captured by Palestinian militants in Gaza two weeks ago, would be traded for Arab prisoners.

"The capture of the two soldiers could provide a solution to the Gaza crisis ... Now that one (held in Gaza) plus two (held by Hezbollah) makes three," Nasrallah told a news conference in his stronghold of south Beirut.
We, in the West, need to think long and hard about the hows and whys it has come to pass that Nasrallah feels so confident (as a leader of a Lebanese political-terrorist group) that he can also negotiate and speak for the interests of the Palestinian terrorist group holding Israeli Corporal Shalit in Southern Gaza? Just who is bankrolling the pied pipers of kaboom anyway? Because without a doubt - they are calling the tune.
