  • DarkEnder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I thought the peace keepers were caught for marijuana until I read the summary.
  • Anrkist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Everybody must get stoned?
  • EztliNahua, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Alright, how the hell is it spelled?

    I have seen: Hezbollah, Hizbollah, Hezbullah, Hezbula, Hezbulla, Hizbola, [...] and now Hizbullah. Are the media/government groups ever going to just choose one spelling to use for them?
  • tagor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Well.. I may not be a Spanish Peacekeeper, but I sure am stoned.
  • Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Just commenting to myself: Seems I was wrong, there's an even more authoritative source on how to spell the arabic name of the Party of God than google, and that's themselves: www.hizbollah.org
  • Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Google Translation gives "Hezbollah" if you translate "The Party of God" or "Gods Party" to English, so I guess that's as close to an 'official' translitteration as you'll get. But like doctorsax said, translitteration doesn't always work well across alphabets.
    Personally I'd have thought "Hezb'Allah" was closer, but no matter.
  • Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1SPANISH PEACEKEEPERS STONED!
    and people are throwing rocks at them too!
  • Gophergreg, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3Nah, it's just the "Religion of Peace" at it again.
