25 May 2013, 16:14 Nasrallah: We do not force anyone to go to the battle. They all go willingly and aspire to take part in the resistance. You will find tens of thousands of fighters that are ready to take all fronts.
25 May 2013, 16:11 Nasrallah: No one can accuse us of being sectarian and attempts to weaken our morale and will power will not succeed. There a media campaign of defamation against us.

25 May 2013, 16:08 Nasrallah: We have lost thousands of martyrs and we consider that through our stand we are defending Lebanon, Palestine and Syria.
25 May 2013, 16:05 Nasrallah: If Syria fell in the hands of the Takfiris and the Americans, this will place the resistance under a siege and Israel will enter Lebanon. If Syria falls, the Palestinian cause will be lost.
25 May 2013, 16:03 Nasrallah: The Syrian situation is an implementation of the American-Israeli project in the region.
25 May 2013, 16:01 Nasrallah: We are not evaluating the matter from a Sunni or Shiite perspective, but from a perspective joining all Muslims and Christians together because they are all threatened by this Takfiri project that is financed by the U.S.
25 May 2013, 16:01 Nasrallah: What future do you expect in Lebanon, Syria and Palestine taking into consideration the presence of the Takfiris?
25 May 2013, 15:59 Nasarllah: This Takfiri mind has killed much more Sunnis than members of other Muslim sects.
25 May 2013, 15:57 Nasrallah: What is happening on the Syrian border is dangerous to Lebanon and to coexistence in the country and will become a danger to Sunnis if Takfiris were able to take control of border regions.
25 May 2013, 15:53 Nasrallah: The Takfiris are the most prevailing group on the Syrian opposition's scene.
25 May 2013, 15:53 Nasrallah: Part of the Syrian opposition abroad has a vision and is ready for dialogue whereas others work under the Pentagon's orders.
25 May 2013, 15:52 Nasrallah: There are many suggestions and settlements that were accepted by the Syrian regime, but that did not go public, but regional countries have rejected them because they do not want Assad's regime.
25 May 2013, 15:51 Nasrallah: A political and economic world war was launched on Syria and thousands of fighters were sent without anyone complaining while Hizbullah's involvement was considered a foreign interference.
25 May 2013, 15:50 Nasrallah: The events in the last couple of years have proved that there is an axis lead by the U.S. while the rest are working under its orders. Everyone knows this axis is supported by Israel while al-Qaida and other Takfiri organizations from around the world were paid to take part in it.
25 May 2013, 15:48 Nasrallah: I have contacted Assad and members of the opposition to reach a settlement but I swear Assad said yes, whereas the opposition rejected the suggestion.
25 May 2013, 15:47 Nasrallah: Since the beginning of Syria's war we have said Assad's regime has its positives and negatives. Reform is required and the only way to reach this is through political dialogue.
25 May 2013, 15:46 Nasrallah on the war in Syria: What is happening in the neighboring country is very crucial for Lebanon, for our present and future.
25 May 2013, 15:45 Nasrallah: We must agree that the only guarantee for civil peace and for our coexistence is the army and the state.
25 May 2013, 15:44 Nasrallah commenting on the clashes in Tripoli: This absurd battle must stop and those rooting for the victory of the Syrian regime or the opposition's rebels must go fight in Syria instead. Leave Tripoli neutral from Syria's conflict.
25 May 2013, 15:43 Nasrallah: We are in front of two options that are either an elections based on the 1960's law or extending the parliament's term, or a miracle that would lead to reaching consensus over a new law. But we are against vacuum.
25 May 2013, 15:42 Nasrallah: Parliamentary blocs failed to agree on an electoral law. We took the decision to submit our candidacies before the March 14 alliance did because we reject vacuum, even if the elections were held based on the 1960's law.
25 May 2013, 15:41 Nasrallah on listing Hizbullah on the lists of terror organizations: This is old news and it is just ink on paper.

25 May 2013, 15:38 Nasrallah: Israel is ready and we do not know what the enemy is going to do.
25 May 2013, 15:37 Nasrallah: If we accepted to put the resistance's army under the direction of the state, these weapons will lose their importance as the state cannot even control what is happening in Tripoli or prevent clashes in a funeral in Sidon, or adopt an electoral law.
25 May 2013, 15:36 Nasrallah: The resistance that defeated Israel cannot be disarmed as this cannot protect a country or deter its enemy.
25 May 2013, 15:35 Nasrallah: The resistance, who defeated Israel in July 2006, has been training and Israel fears the resistance whereas many in Lebanon are wondering how to get rid of it.
25 May 2013, 15:34 Nasrallah: Everything done in Lebanon to confront Israeli threats and attacks was established by the resistance, and I do not mean Hizbullah only, but everyone who made an effort.
25 May 2013, 15:32 Nasrallah: What is only required from the state of Lebanon is to adopt and apply programs that would keep people in their villages.
25 May 2013, 15:31 Nasrallah: Israel is building settlements on its border with Syria, Lebanon and Jordan and is recruiting Jews from all over the world and offering them salaries and job opportunities, and is giving them military training and weapons... These settlements are a part of the Israeli military plan.
25 May 2013, 15:29 Nasrallah: We do not have shelters or safe accommodations in Lebanon. Is it also required from the resistance to take care of matters of civil aspects?
25 May 2013, 15:27 Nasrallah: If directions, political cover and armaments were granted to the army, it could fight against Israel similarly to the resistance.
25 May 2013, 15:27 Nasrallah: Any Arab military is forbidden from getting more arms if they will be used in a confrontation against Israel. Syria cannot own rockets but at the same time, other Arab countries have such weapons because there is an awareness that they will not use it against Israel.
25 May 2013, 15:26 Nasrallah: We used to hear the excuses like the Syrian presence in Lebanon, but what did the state in Lebanon do since 2005 regarding arming and training the military institution? Excuses given are related to financing these projects.
25 May 2013, 15:24 Nasrallah: What did the Lebanese state do regarding being prepared to face what happens in the region?
25 May 2013, 15:22 Nasrallah: Israel threatens Lebanon on a daily basis and has been mobilizing its forces on the border for months. It is bombing Syria and threatening it. Israel is ready for war.
25 May 2013, 15:22 Nasrallah: Israel has a special ministry, the Ministry of Home Front Defense and it is responsible for dealing with anything that hits Israel.
25 May 2013, 15:21 Nasrallah: Since July 2006 Israel has been preparing and setting plans for wars. They realized their weaknesses and say they are ready for war.

25 May 2013, 15:17 Nasrallah: The 1948's Nakba was a catastrophe to all Arabs, not to a particular nation only. All Arabs are bearing its consequences, similarly to the 1967's setback.
25 May 2013, 15:16 Nasrallah: The importance of the Liberation Day is similar to the day the U.S. army withdrew from Iraq and all the region's great days that are targeted by the American-Zionist project.
25 May 2013, 15:14 Nasrallah: This day should be forever remembered and this memory must be transmitted from one generation to another. It represents a meaningful national experience and is a passage towards the future.

25 May 2013, 11:50 Gemayel: Things will remain the same for the upcoming 4 years.
25 May 2013, 11:50 Gemayel: Can we bring new faces to parliament through the adoption of the 1960 law? We are in fact extending the term of the current parliament by adopting this law.
25 May 2013, 11:49 Gemayel: We are committing a crime. We should correct this historical mistake. We are all responsible for it.
