Rejected petition Ban and Re-classify Hezbollah in it's entirety, Including it's political wing!

Close the loophole in the UK that allows the flag of Hezbollah to be flown on the streets of our capital This organisation hates the West, is anti-Semitic and perpetrates international acts of terror, Hezbollah’s military wing is proscribed by the Government but not its supposed political wing.

More details

Hezbollah’s leadership does not differentiate, Speaking in October 2012, Deputy Secretary General Naim Qassem stated: "We don't have a military wing and a political one; we don't have Hezbollah on one hand and the resistance party on the other."
The petition calls upon Home Secretary Javid to Ban Hezbollah as a terrorist organisation in its entirety in the UK, bringing us inline with the USA, France,Canada, Israel, Netherlands, Japan, Bahrain and even The Arab League.
