Senior Shiite Cleric Sayyed Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah urged the Lebanese people to work for their country's independence, sovereignty and freedom, warning them of the United States' plan to corrupt the country and stir civil strife. The statements of Fadlallah were made in the presence of several religious, political and social figures during his Friday sermon at al-Imamayn al-Hassanayn mosque in Haret Hreik. Fadlallah said: "The American plan was initiated to meddle in Lebanese affairs, to destroy the resistance and create chaos in the region, and was supported by Europe, particularly the French." Fadlallah added that "the American political game" wanted to divide the country and agitate sensitivities. He further said: "We urge the new generation to open up to freedom, sovereignty, independence, honesty and loyalty to their country." He also said: "Everyone must take responsibility for saving the country by overcoming all obstacles and setting up a reform program." |
