A Lebanese writer gets out of his way to be polite in asking Sayyed Nasrallah to talk less:

Perhaps I am asking the impossible when I urge Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah not to err, as no human is infallible. However, I allow myself to urge him to at least try […] If he reduced the number of speeches and statements, he would no doubt reduce the likelihood of making mistakes, which would in turn deny the enemies of Hezbollah the opportunity to creep through to attack Syria and Iran.

Believe it or not, that was part of an article criticizing Israel and The New York Times.
