Separated at Birth

OK, which of the following statements was made by the leader of Hezbollah and which was made by washed-up, has-been, Democratic "strategist" Paul Begala?

There's no peace. There's no stability, and there's no democracy. Things are getting worse. And then, in the middle of all of this, for Condoleezza Rice, our secretary of state, to say, well, this is just the birth pangs of a new Middle East, it was one of the most callous, unhelpful, harmful statements I have ever heard an American diplomat make. The bloodshed in Lebanon is the responsibility of Bush, Condoleezza Rice and Rumsfeld and their barbaric administration. Whenever this war stops, you should not forget it is the doing of the American administration and the results of this war, Lebanon will not be Israeli, Lebanon will not be American. It will not be a part of the plan: Rice's new Middle East.
A little adjective gives it away, but isn't it interesting how the language of our enemies so closely matches the language of our.....enemies?

After reading things like this I realize the only thing I have to be grateful for this morning, I guess, is that I didn't wake up in North Korea!

"Barbaric" Administration?

Was it Paul Begala?

That would be the Hezbo. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
