Unmitigated Chutzpah

Hizbullah, which started a war last summer when the Islamic terrorist group's members invaded Israel to capture Israeli soldiers (killing and wounding a dozen soldiers in the process), and who continues to hold Goldwasser and Regev more than a year later, is now engaging in lawfare - trying to sue Israel all over the world for damages resulting from the war.

Hezbollah is planning to file a host of lawsuits against Israel over the damages it caused during the Second Lebanon War. Lebanese individuals with dual citizenship will file the suits in the countries where they hold citizenship.

Attorney Ibrahim Awada, who heads Hezbollah’s legal department, revealed the plan last week on a Syrian television program devoted to “Zionist crimes against Lebanon.” He said that each plaintiff will hire a lawyer in the country where he files suit, and Hezbollah will pay the lawyers’ fees.

HT: Hot Air.

UPDATE:
Hizbullah is launching the lawsuits because the Lebanese government was thwarted from doing so itself because UN SCR 1701 blamed Hizbullah for the war, not Israel. Go figure. The facts are against them, so they're busy pounding on the table demanding that someone pay them for the damages resulting from a war that they started.
