EU makes a goodwill gesture to Hezbollah....

If you are going to make a goodwill gesture, then who better to than Hezbollah...

The European Union's foreign affairs chief has held talks with a Hizbullah legislator in the first meeting between a senior EU diplomat and an official of the Iranian-backed Shi'ite terror group.

Saturday's meeting between Javier Solana and Hizbullah lawmaker Hussein Hajj Hassan follows a similar outreach to the militant group by Britain.

Hassan described Saturday's meeting as a goodwill gesture from the EU.
