Hizbullah partisans besieged U.S. Charge d’Affaires Michele Sison during a visit to the southern town of Nabatiyeh and hurled rocks at her motorcade while chanting the party’s favored slogan "death to America."

Sison, on a tour of south Lebanon, was meeting deputy head of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Abdullah Bitar in Nabatiyeh to discuss economic and development projects of interest to the region and its citizens when Hizbullah partisans besieged the venue.

As the Hizbullah partisans chanted "death to America, death to Israel," Sison’s bodyguards decided to evacuate the top U.S. diplomat in Lebanon fearing she might be attacked.

However Hizbullah partisans chased Sison’s motorcade as the vehicles tried to leave Bitar’s residence, tried to block its way and hurled rocks at it, reliable sources said.

Officials held contacts that allowed Sison’s motorcade to leave the region safely, they added.

Mind you, Ms. Sison is in effect the US Ambassador to Lebanon.
