RNA – Speaking at a gathering of the Muslim Scholars of Lebanon, Hujjat al-Islam Na’im Qasim, the deputy secretary-general of Lebanon’s Hezbollah Islamic Resistance movement, said that this country stood firm due to the tripartite equation of the Islamic Resistance – the army, nation, and resistance – and with courage, it stood on the front line against the Zionist regime.”
The Shi’ah cleric added, “The resistance of Lebanon fought courageously and daringly against Israel and also supported the army. Lebanon, with the same equation, was vigilant of its stability while the region, especially Iraq and Syria, were in turmoil.”
He said, “It was the solidarity of the triangle of the army, people and resistance which brought victory.”
Hujjat al-Islam Qasim stated, “Many had argued that Lebanon would drown in the Syrian crisis but it turned out that Lebanon remained proud and achieved success in line with the interests of Syria in opposition to others.”
His Eminence also noted the formation of a new Lebanese government and said that Hezbollah looks at this government as a place to serve the people and properly manage the country’s political scene.
He said that thanks to the tripartite equation, Lebanon succeeded in implementing the proportional law in the May 6, 2018 parliamentary elections and the new government was formed in such a way that all the parties are based on the results of the election.
Hujjat al-Islam Qasim added, “We in Hezbollah consider the new government as a service to the people, not a place for personal, sectarian and party achievements. The government is a place for forgiveness and sacrifice. Hezbollah ministers will be ‘model’ in their actions, as in the past, and will work in line with the interests of the people with honesty.”
