New Zealand designates Houthis and entirety of Hezbollah as terror organizations
|
[IsraelTimes] Country previously blacklisted only military wing of Lebanese group; decision comes after police advised government that both groups’ actions qualify as terrorism
New Zealand designated the entirety of Hezbollah as a terrorist entity on Wednesday, in an adjustment to its 2010 decision to list just the military wing.
The decision was made following advice from New Zealand police that cited decades of terrorist activity, most recently the arrest of two Hezbollah-affiliated people who were allegedly planning an attack on a Jewish community in Brazil.
Israel has been engaged in a ground offensive in southern Leb
...an Iranian satrapy until recently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...

...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth . Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
rebels as a terrorist group.
According to local reports, the designation came after police advised that the Houthis’ consistent attacks on ships in the Red Sea in the past year constituted terrorist activity.
The Houthis have said they are targeting Israel- and US-related ships in support of Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
amid the ongoing Hamas-Israel war in the Paleostinian enclave.
New Zealand is the 30th country to list the entire Hezbollah organization as a terrorist entity.
"It’s very simple. For any organization to be deemed a terrorist organization under New Zealand legislation, we have to have evidence, and we go through a number of tests under our legislation, that the organization has knowingly undertaken terrorist activity," New Zealand’s Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said about the designations, adding that this was determined to be the case for Hezbollah and the Houthis.
New Zealand’s decision makes it a criminal offense to carry out property or financial transactions with Hezbollah or the Houthis or provide them with material support. It also freezes any of the organizations’ assets in New Zealand.
Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar welcomed the decision in a post on X.
"I congratulate the government of New Zealand on its decision today to designate Hezbollah and the Houthis (Ansar Allah) as terrorist organizations," he wrote.
In February, New Zealand designated the entirety of Hamas as a terrorist organization, with only the group’s military wing classified as such since 2010.
The decision to expand the designation came as a result of Hamas’s October 7 attack on southern Israel in which murderous Moslems murdered some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and took 251 hostages, sparking the war in Gaza.
New Zealand said in February that it held the whole of Hamas responsible for the attack, necessitating the expansion of its designation.
