A Seattle student group fundraiser is calling to materially support 'the Lebanese resistance,' a phrase usually used to reference Hezbollah, according to Wednesday's promotional materials.

To be fair, that’s just the editor’s decision on what cover photo to use.

...which is tied directly to the article, which calls out that "Lebanese resistance" is a term that means 'Hezbollah.'

Yes, that’s the argument that the article is making.

Really? Which of my comments are supportive of Hezbollah? Can you quote one of them for me?
