“We Won’t Try Failed Diplomacy at the Expense of Successful Resistance”


20/12/2009 During a Ashura gathering on Sunday, Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem said Hezbollah was not willing to once again, “try the failed diplomacy at the expense of a successful Resistance,” given that UN Security Council Resolution 425 has remained unimplemented for 22 years. He added that without the Resistance, the South would have not been liberated.

“US President Barack Obama told [his Lebanese counterpart Michel] Sleiman that Washington is concerned with arms smuggling into Lebanon,” Qassem said, “because the arms harm Israel’s security,” while asking Obama, “Are you not worried that Israel possesses 400 nuclear heads and mass destruction weapons?”

“No one has the right to expose the Resistance, the Lebanese army and people,” Qassem said, calling for those “who are not resisting” to take adequate measures and participate in the Resistance.
