Hizbullah: Elections Won't Affect Resistance-Army-People Equation | |
2013-01-14 | |
[An Nahar] Hizbullah on Sunday stressed that the upcoming parliamentary elections will not affect the so-called "resistance-army-people equation" regardless of who wins the vote. "No stoopid election is gonna change the way we do things!" "The electoral juncture is a chance for rapprochement and agreement on a new electoral law, as the 1960 law now belongs to the past," deputy head of Hizbullah's Executive Council, Sheikh Nabil Qaouq, said. "It was just a piece of paper. Forget about it." He noted that all parties are now "discussing a new electoral law that ensures real equal power-sharing between Christians and Mohammedans and true partnership." "It's great camouflage. We still have more guns than the entire Leb and Armenian armies put together, so there ain't nobody gonna tell us what to do!"
But Qaouq emphasized that "whatever the new electoral law might be, whatever the results, this will not affect the resistance-army-people equation." "If the enemies are betting on an electoral law aimed at weakening the resistance, they are being delusional, because the equation of the resistance is more deep-rooted than mountains," Qaouq added. The ministerial Policy Statement of Prime Minister Najib Miqati's government mentions the "resistance-army-people" formula, but it is not stipulated by the constitution. Actually, it's something invented by the Hezbullies to justify keeping lots of guns and explosives. | |
