10/07/2009 Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem urged all rival Lebanese political camps to realize that neither of them can build the country by itself, regardless of their influence and popularity.
"The country cannot be built by the efforts of a single team. And not one side can monopolize (power) or deny the role and popularity of the other side," he added.
"We presented what we have and said we are prepared to take part in a national unity government. We behaved in a completely positive manner to ensure … that Lebanon remains a country of resistance and that it rejects any form of foreign tutelage."
During an event in the Ghobeiry neighborhood in the Southern Suburb on Friday, Sheikh Qassem said that the Lebanese national opposition’s position is politically strong, and that its parties are awaiting the proposals of Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri to decide on its future steps “and give our final answers.”
His eminence held Hariri as responsible for creating proposals and formulas that “serve the concept of partnership.” “We welcomed the inter-Arab understanding, and we see that it is important and positive, whether the understandings were Syrian-Saudi or Egyptian-Syrian,” Sheikh Qassem added.
The Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General also denounced the “foreign meddling of countries that are trying to impose their conditions on Lebanon,” adding, “Only what the opposition and the majority agree on will be implemented, and that will be the basis on which the future of the country will be built.”
His eminence pointed out to the Zionist threats saying it is nothing more than a show of power. “You have heard what the Israeli leaders’ declarations and their bullying against Lebanon in case Hezbollah entered the government saying that they would bomb the country and held it responsible, yet Israel is powerless and exposed.”
