Qassem Says Hizbullah Ready to Discuss Defense Strategy but Not the Arms

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem stressed on Saturday that his party supports dialogue among the Lebanese and expressed readiness to discuss the defense strategy but not the resistance’s arms.

“We will not discuss the resistance’s weapons issue… their hopes and demands for toppling the arms are to support the American-Israeli project,” Qassem said during a celebration in Hermel for the birth of Imam Mahdi and the anniversary of the 2006 war.

He told the audience that “there is no near war with Israel because Hizbullah’s deterrence scares them (Israelis) and they will not be able to achieve their goals. They know that the resistance’s capabilities differed from the 2006 war.”

Concerning the Special Tribunal for Lebanon probing the assassination of ex-Premier Rafik Hariri in 2005, the deputy chief said that “our political team obstructed the STL’s aim to ignite the situation in Lebanon.”

“The European Union and America will cooperate with this government because their interests will be harmed. This cabinet will have regional and international relations,” Qassem added.

He described the STL as “politicized” and not connected to Lebanon anymore, saying that it became a “political tool used by the (United Nations) Security Council especially by the U.S. and Israel.”

“They will use the tribunal whenever they wanted to raise an issue against Hizbullah,” he stated.

ARMS DOWN FIRST

First go discuss with the tribunal. Bring lawyers and don't fear any complot since you are innocent and the 120 judicials of the STL among them lawyers and judges have built a tale alike Hitchcock's and Agatha Christies to take off your weapons. If you still hide behind your critics and challenges to the STL we will never beleive you. Go face them and prove that they have built-up this huge scenario with dozens of actors just for you baby. Go answer them why a young oficer of 34 years old called Wissam Eid has been killed while investigating in Hariri's murder, after being contacted by you one week before. Go prove them that Israel killed him to ignite a civil strife, and killed all the remaining officials of March 14 to create a civil war. Go repeat your dumb bullshits because here we had enough. Enough stealing cars, lands, properties, electricty, water, lives, and the freedom of our country. And take Aounallah with you.

- His Eminence Monseigneur KASSEM is right ! instead of talking about the Hezb weapons , we should talk about the Palestino weapons inside and outside the camps ..

FYI , the Palestinians are very heavely armed and equiped by KSA and Hariri , against the Christians Maronites and the Shiias + the Alaouites in Lebanon and Syria . Al-Mustakbal is playing the role of go between for the political cover to these fanaticas assassins terrorists , called Palestinians refugees in Lebanon and Syria .

Remember what happened in Lebanon during the civil war , and look what is happenning today in Syria by the same sunnis fundamentalists financed and equiped by KSA like they did in Lebanon , and lately in Naher el Bared .

no comments.... i am speechless..... i am in awe at how they think. How can you O'Wise man discuss a defense strategy but not weapons and who carry the weapons, and when they carry the weapons??? Do you understand the meaning of the word "Strategy"? How a battle is fought is a matter of tactics: the terms and conditions that it is fought on and whether it should be fought at all is a matter of strategy. When you decide when and where and even the hows, how can you claim your openess to discuss strategy? Another bunch of time wasting BS.....

How on earth can anyone expect those guys to discuss their death sentence. Their very raison d' etre is to carry arms and execute a common agenda for establishment the Wilayet Al Faqih, their ultimate goal. All the rest is nonsensical. Whne you receive tens of millions per month, when you are structurally and operationnally controled by the Farsi, when you are an administrative division of the Pasdaran, no one can sit and discuss anything with you. You are just paid to do a job. Can anyone tell me when was any Al Mustaqbal member, cited in a criminal case in Egypt, Arentina, Kazakstan, Colombia, Bahrein, Syria, etc etc... This is an organisation with global reach, which is an organic part of the Farsi project. These guys have trained to be Sophist guys who have nothing to say, nowhere, with nobody, expect that they have the final say (for the time being) by the force of arms. We discuss strategy but not weapons, weapons but not calibers, calibers but not usage, usage but not objectives

objectives but not rules of engagments, rules of engagments but not timing......They' re a bunch of idiots who think they can fool everyone all the time, by hairsplitting, in 2 then 4, then 8 , then 16...... They should meditate what happened to Milosevic who had 99% of followers, not 33%.....Time will tell, they will soon learn what it is to deal with a UN resolution under chapter 7!

Lebanon became an iranian state. A deadly cancer has striken lebanon.
Lebanon wont survive if they dont remove the cancer. Dialogues and meetings all are rubish. Nothing will work. Who are the winners? Israel and hizballah.
Who are the losers? the Lebanese people. We can discuss things from here to eternity . Only a civil war will decide. Sooner or later this is going to happen.
As a Christian i do not want to live with shiite armed millitias and under their rules. Id rather see a partitioned lebanon. I do not want to fight Israel i do not want to fight hizballah. I want one area for the peaceful lebanese ruled by laws with no guns. the ones who want no laws but guns can have a piece of lebanon and stay there and leave us alone. Just like Cyprus. You go your way and go mine. i want peace .

All the rest of Lebanon is saying is that merge your arms and your men with the Lebanese army. That is defense strategy. Problem is you want these arms to be ready to bully the others . . .It is as simple as that

Le Phenicien, how dare you call this piece of crap Monseigneur? And he and his gang of thugs, otherwise known as Hizbullah, are the best friend Israel has. This BS that they are a resistance is no longer a valid argument, if anything, they are resisting the building of the Lebanese state, and they are still working on their ultimate goal, turning Lebanon into a Muslim state...They saw that they could not do this by force, so they are doing it by taking over the government and by stealing land....they are a cancer, they are acting like it too, slowly invading and sucking the life of Lebanon. Their arms are nothing but a tool to terrorize the Lebanese. Our only cure is, I hate to say it, an all out war on Hizbullah...fight fire with fire....since you can't talk to them, you can't talk to someone who always believes he is right...Oh and one more thing, you are as traitor to Lebanon, so is Hizbullah...so please change you name from "Le Phenicien" to "Le Iranien"..

I agree with my fellow Shiite Le fini all the groups that supported the PLO resistance and fought along side it are part of the new majority supporting the Iranian Islamic resistance, we are all working hand in hand in creating the new Islamic middle east that our Iranian brothers announced back in January.
Hamas, Ahmad Jibrel and all the armed Palestinian groups inside and outside the camps are supporters and supported by the Resistance, remember the road to Palestine goes through Lasa. .
I sign off with a quote from the magnificent GMA from his Zionist conspirator perioud in France:"By the way, I remind you here that the Syrian regime had said that it came to ‎Lebanon to save its Christians from extermination. I want to ask this regime who, apart from ‎it, in fact wanted to exterminate us?" lucky for us today GMA agrees that exterminating the Christians is a good thing.

Le phenicien, you should name yourself "Le Pénissien". Just translate it into arabic and you get what you really are. You are saying that fundamentalist sunnis in Syria are trying to topple the regime? For God sake, the actual dictatorship in Syria which is governing since 25 years is what then? Based on crimes, tyranny, oppression, abductions,without counting the numerous massacres executed in Lebanon. They left their people without press (have u ever seen more than 1 opinion in their journals) and without any freedom, imposing on them by force their baasist regime. They sold the Golan to save their nizam and pretend to fight Israel; not a single gun shot. And they kept their promise to Israel by doing their best to keep their people poor and without education to guarantee a good future for their jewsih neighboors.

HA will defend their weapons for ever they will never give it up, that's the only power they have over us. they will always use israel as a scape goat to keep scaring us, they wont tell us that the only reason israel is at war with us is because of HA, when HA is gone, we will have no problems with israel.
he is defending criminals such as bedreddine who the Iranian intelligence freed from a Kuwait prison after he was sentenced to death for many of his crimes, now this insulant a-hole is teaching us morals.
