2007-02-17 |
BEIRUT - Hezbollah chief Hasan Nasarallah said on Friday he will not forgive Lebanese authorities for seizing weapons from his anti-Israeli Shiite guerrilla group. “We will not forgive anyone who confiscates a bullet,” he said in a speech during the annual commemoration of the killing of two senior Hezbollah officials in Israeli attacks in 1987 and 1992. “We are ready to provide the army with all the weapons that it requires ... but we will not forgive anyone who confiscates a bullet,” he said. "We have plenty of weapons, of all kinds ... and we have the right to transport our arms to combat Israel, even if we transport them in secret to hide them from the Israeli enemy.” “The Resistance will always stand by the Lebanese army, with our weapons, men and blood ... to defend Lebanon,” he said. Defence Minister Elias Murr later said the army will use the seized weapons to fight Israel in case of any future violation of Lebanese sovereignty. |
