| Ladies and gentlemen, one of the most important ways that we must measure the value of our international community is by how effective we are in protecting and providing justice for the most vulnerable of our members.

We have warned for some time that Hezbollah—which is backed by Syria and Iran—is rearming and we have seen the manifestation of that and we continue to see it in terms of the unlawful use of force against Lebanese institutions and population.
