Mouawad: Hezbollah only interested in an Islamic state in Lebanon
Michel Mouawad , a key member of the March 14 majority ruling alliance strongly criticized yesterdays speech of Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah . Unfortunately Hezbollah is acting as if it is not part of Lebanon he said .Mouawad added : His speech yesterday indicated that Lebanon can no longer accommodate Nasrallah nor Hezbollah . Nasrallah s only interest is in establishing an Islamic state in Lebanon similar to that of Iran. Mouad also said : If Nasrallah is truly interested in Lebanon as a state , he should respect the laws of the Lebanese state which has the exclusive right to the decision of peace and war. Nasrallah , who appeared in public for the first time in 18 months yesterday delivered a televised speech during the last day of Ashura in which he tried to incite Israel to a have another fight with his organization, just like 2006 when Hezbollah kidnapped two Israeli soldiers . The kidnapping led to a devastating war that lasted for 34 days and claimed more than 1200 Lebanese lives , mostly civilians and children. Posted by: Fred 2008-01-21 |
