Baran Israel reveals: Lebanese Shiite Figures visited Jerusalem

Anti-Hezbollah Lebanese Shiite figures visited Israel's capital earlier this year, political sources told Baran Israel stating that these figures met with MKs and cabinet ministers including outgoing FM Tsebi Levni and Defence Minister Ehuda Barak.

The sources said both Mr A. A the son of a former speaker and Mr O. S paid each apart a visit under special measures where neither Visa's were Issured nor passports stamped and travelled via a safe diplomatic passage from the Jordanian side.

Mr A. A clearified to Israeli officials the view point of the Shiite silent majority that is terrified by terror group Hezbollah, stating that his people are peace seekers and share with the Jewish community in Israel the status of being a minority in the heart of a Sunni dominated Arab world.

The second guest Mr O. S said he regards Israel a friend of the Lebanese people in general and especially the Shiites, recalling Israel's development of the area it occupied in Southern Lebanon.

Mr O. S called on the Israeli goverment to embrace the Lebanese community in Israel and urged it to provide them with all what it can in return to their services during the Israeli presence in Lebanon.
