Sayyed Nasrallah: Armed Resistance is the only way to face occupation


Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said that the only way to face the occupation is through the armed resistance. Sayyed Nasrallah added during his speech at the General Arab Conference to back the resistance that the Lebanese don't want to solve Israel's problems in Lebanon, and therefore, the Palestinian refugee should return to their lands.

On Iraq Sayyed Nasrallah said that the resistance is the real and right choice to end the occupation, adding that this should be strengthened through avoiding any internal conflict. Sayyed Nasrallah also assured the conferees that the resistance in Lebanon is strong and backed by the people.

Part of the Sayyed's Speech

Unfortunately, many events and developments took place during the past year. Some of them were clearly conspiracies, on top of which is the assassination of martyr Rafik Hariri.

But the developments which followed, as well as the international pressure and the huge media campaigns, led the country to a place where some began portraying the Arab-Israeli conflict as something outdated. And I assure you that this is a temporary state

When we want to approach the issue of the resistance, it is not accepted that we approach it based on the Arab-Israeli conflict, but based initially on Lebanese considerations. The core of UN resolution 1559 is disarming the resistance. Intimidation failed with us before the year 2000 and temptation failed with us after the year 2000.

An American official put forth a deal that Hezbollah be deleted from the American list of terrorist organization, the doors to power in Lebanon be opened for us, the rest of the occupied lands be returned to us, the detainees in Israeli jails be released and a huge sum of money be paid to us, all in return for laying down our arms and ending the resistance.

No one can discuss the feasibility of the resistance in Lebanon, because it presented a concrete achievement and a victory. If we regretted the trend by some Lebanese officials in the Arab Summit to delete the term "resistance", this is because is something regrettable indeed. The French still speak to us about their French resistance until this very day, but when there is something that we should be proud of in Lebanon, we rush to forget it and ignore it.

We dealt with UN resolution with decisiveness and leniency. We said that whoever wants to take away the arms of the resistance by force, he will pay a heavy price.

We also said that we are ready for dialogue over strategic options, because we want to protect our country, people and sovereignty. Some may say that this the government's responsibility and I say that this is right, but when the government abandons its responsibilities, do the people have to surrender?

tell you that the government did never undertake this responsibility. In its best positions, it supported the resistance, a few years ago. I would like to assure you that the American and international plot, as we understand it, has reached a deadlock.

Don't worry about us, the resistance in Lebanon is strong and supported by the people. No one can target a resistance that has such credibility, logic, vision, evidence and I have to say also, strength. We are in a world where logic and rights are not respected if they are not backed by power
