Replacing US Aid Would 'Compromise Lebanon's Sovereignty'

State Dept Spokesman Philip Crowley國務部發言人菲利浦克勞利
The US State Department has reacted with outrage today after the Iranian government offered to provide military aid to Lebanon to make up for what was lost when the US pulled all such aid yesterday.
美國國務院今天以憤怒作回應，在伊朗政府提出向黎巴嫩提供軍事援助後，以彌補當美國昨天撤出所有這些援助而失去的東西。
Incredibly enough, State Department spokesman Philip Crowley suggested that Iran’s military aid would “compromise Lebanon’s sovereignty,” yet no similar concerns were voiced when the US was providing much larger amounts of aid to the exact same country.
足够令人難以置信的是，美國國務院發言人菲利浦克勞利提出，伊朗的軍事援助將“損害黎巴嫩的主權”，但沒有類似的關注發出，當美國提供更大金額的援助給完全相同的國家。
In fact, Crowley insisted US military aid had the opposite effect, and was actually helping “expand the capabilities of the government and thereby improve its sovereignty over its territory.”
事實上，克勞利堅持美國的軍事援助有相反的效果，及實際上是幫助“擴大政府的能力，從而改善其領土主權。”
Rep. Howard Berman (D – CA) announced yesterday that he was pulling all military aid to Lebanon because of last week’s border clash with Israel. In the clash one Israeli soldier was killed, prompting Israeli shelling which killed three Lebanese soldiers and a journalist.
