In recent years, the United States has seen strategic failures in the Middle East.

Now, even the existence of Israel may be a real probelm for American policy for decades.

Israel is being blamed for US failures in the Middle East.

Lebanon has linked Israel to US lack of success among the Arabs.

Hezbollah, which is now part of western backed government in Lebanon, claims that US will not win in middle east as long as it supports Israel.

Leader of the Lebanese militia Hassan Nasrallah vowed to fight America's ally Israel as long as he lives.

Hezbollah Chief said the United States will not see peace as long there is a Jewish state on Arab land.

In a TV interview, the powerful guerilla chief blasted Israel's "aggressive nature". Zionists are "militant by nature", said Hassan Nasrallah.

The guerilla boss celebrated victory over Israel in the 2006 war.

Nasrallah warned that there will be "no peace" for United States as long Israel exists.

America recognised Israel in 1948.

The muslim world as a whole does not recognise Israel.
