Sky News' News Lady | Do you think the four weeks that we have seen ... has set back Hezbollah's amitions? Not only are Israeli soldiers over the border in sizeable numbers, but also there claims to be a good political organization to help a democratic Lebanese government, with the Syrians who've also now left an independant state, that has also come to blows as well.

Hezbollah Supporter | What a silly question! What a silly person you are! Hezbollah is winning the war, you can see it on the other side of the screen! Hezbollah is more popular today in Lebanon, amongst Christians, amongst Sunnis, amongst Shi'ites, amonst all Arabs, amongst all muslims than it has ever been. It's Israel who's lost the war, and Bush and Blair for politically organizing the war who've lost politically. This is a defeat for Bush, and Blair, and Israel. Everybody but you can see it!

Yeah, I think that dude can safely be labelled a "zealot". He didn't answer the question. The question was asked again immediately after that quote, and he immediately dodged it again.
Edit:
In any case, his final comment was pretty accurate, and also relatively powerful in my opinion. But I'll refuse to ignore the fact that he seemed irate and prejudicial himself.
And if it matters, I know I've read the names of the abducted Israeli soldiers, but if I was pressed for them, I wouldn't remember them.
And I really think this thread should be merged with the other thread, since they're essentially on the same topic.
