The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, has organized a massive rally in the Buss refugee camp in South Lebanon yesterday on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of the Nakba (usurpation of Palestine). The Palestine Scholars League – Lebanon branch delivered a statement on the occasion outlining the religious aspects of the Palestine cause. Lebanese parliament deputy Abdullah Qassir then spoke about the Palestinian people’s insistence on the resistance option. He affirmed that rights were always grabbed by force, recalling that resistance had liberated South Lebanon from Zionist occupation and would liberate Palestine insha’allah.

The Hamas representative in Lebanon, Osama Hamdan, then took the platform affirming that his Movement had chosen the path of Jihad, steadfastness and resistance. He affirmed that the Palestinian people supported that option, charging the American road-map proposed settlement plan of being drafted to protect the Zionist entity rather than to grant rights to the Palestinian people. Hamdan also affirmed that none was authorized to surrender the Palestinian refugees’ right of return.
