H.E. Qassem: Resistance will continue exerting pressure on Israel
(1):
Hizbullahs deputy secretary-general, Sheikh Nahim Qassem, declared
on Sunday that Israels repeated vows to withdraw from the south were
designed to place Lebanon and Syria under pressure.
They talk about withdrawal daily to exert more pressure and we will talk about the resistance daily to exert more pressure. They launch the words and we launch the bullets, he said at a religious ceremony in Bir Hassan in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
Qassem said that Hizbullahs leaders had decided the future of the party
years ago in the event of an Israeli withdrawal.
Hizbullahs silence about the aftermath of a withdrawal is because
we do not want any information to be released that could serve the enemy.
We want them to remain confused and not knowing what to do. How we shall
continue the struggle against the Israeli enemy and how we would deal
with the changes that will occur is a secret, he said.
