Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Kassem told the British newspaper the Guardian that the group is rearming in the wake of the Second Lebanon War and is prepared for another war this summer.

"We are prepared for the possibility of another adventure or the demand of American policy that might push the IDF in that direction," said Kassem in an interview published Wednesday.

According to the Guardian, Kassem accused Washington of waging a covert war against the militant group by arming anti-Hezbollah militias and seeking to undermine the Lebanese army.

"Dick Cheney has given orders for a covert war against Hezbollah...there is now an American program that is using Lebanon to further its goals in the region," Kassem told the Guardian in a safe house in Beirut's Hezbollah-controlled southern suburbs.

7. I think what he meant to say was, "All Your Base Are Belong to Dick."

Actually, I have no idea what he meant.

I couldn't even begin to diagram his "sentences."

It may have been written by one of those context-free letter writing programs.
