Reuters: Hezbollah leader says U.S. seeking to talk
BEIRUT (Reuters) - The leader of Hezbollah said on Friday that Washington was seeking to open channels of communication despite ramping up sanctions against the Iran-backed movement’s officials.
U.S. President Donald “Trump’s administration is seeking to open channels of communication to Hezbollah in Lebanon through mediators. ... These are the American pragmatists,” Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said in an interview with Hezbollah’s al-Manar TV without elaborating.
There was no immediate comment from the U.S. State Department on the assertion.
New sanctions this week marked the first time the United States has targeted lawmakers of the heavily-armed Shi’ite Hezbollah, which is part of Lebanon’s coalition government.

Nasrallah has the Muslim equivalent of the 'layered' look. Which is not a compliment.
Nasrallah has never had skin in the game and he has not missed too many meals.
He is a bad person to mess with, because he is so ignorant he will miscalculate.
Really, it is a lost cause so make an example of him and give him the whole thing.
