Hezbollah: U.S. faced historic defeat in Iraq

Leader of Hezbollah Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah said U.S. retreat from Iraq is a historic defeat.

President Obama has announced withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq by the end of 2011.

American military was forced to pull out because of heavy resistence from Iraqi popluation.

Hezbollah Chief described the withdrawal of American troops as a true victory for Iraqi people.

In a televised interview, Nasrallah said that Iraqis owe this remarkable achievement to the resistance groups, adding that US troops would have stayed in the country if they had felt secure.

Nasrallah also compared US pullout from Iraq to the withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Lebanon.
