Chairman of the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, Avigdor Lieberman, deemed the EU's decision to include the military wing of Hezbollah in its list of terrorist organizations, as not enough, saying "as usual the Europeans only went half-way, and making a partial decision is insufficient."

"The military wing and the political wing of Hezbollah are two sides of the same coin. At the head of each stands Hassan Nasrallah. The attempt to present the group as if it is partially extremist and partially moderate is like asking if a cannibal can be a vegetarian," said Lieberman.
