The Phalange Party on Friday said it would not approve any policy statement for the new cabinet that does not restrict sovereignty and foreign policy-related activities to the state. The party's statement was tantamount to advance rejection of granting Hizbullah's Islamic Resistance recognition as some sort of an autonomous entity that the government does not control."Past experience shows that any recognition, direct or indirect, of any illegitimate weapons ... has resulted in huge losses," the statement noted. "Pledges that weapons would be used only against the Israeli enemy have not been respected. What we witnessed last May testifies to this," the statement concluded in an apparent reference to attacks by Hizbullah against Beirut and Mount Lebanon.
