Britain's Contacts With Hezbollah Vex U.S.

... The United States, the official said, wanted Britain to explain "the difference between the political, social and military wings of Hezbollah because we don't see the difference between the integrated leadership that they see."

In its announcement, the British Foreign Office said it would take up "carefully selected" contacts with the political wing of Hezbollah but continue to shun the group's military wing.
