Nasrallah: We're ready for any 'Zionist adventure'

In meeting with religious leaders, Hizbullah secretary-general warns Israel that if it launches an attack, his organization will deal Jewish state 'a defeat more severe than the defeat in the last war'

Hizbullah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah said Monday that his militant Shiite organization was ready for any future confrontation with Israel

 

Nasrallah, who spoke during in a meeting with a delegation of Lebanese religious leaders, was quoted as saying that Hizbullah was "ready for any attack or foolish adventure that the Zionist enemy initiates."

 

He warned that, in the case of an Israeli attack, Hizbullah would deal the "Zionist enemy a defeat more severe than the defeat it dealt (Israel) in the last war."

 

Nasrallah went on to claim that "the 'resistance' today is stronger, more resolute, and much more experienced."

 

During the meeting, the militant cleric emphasized his commitment to unity among all Muslims and his continual effort to "cause the failure of all attempts to provoke a civil war by the United States and Israel."

 

He added that "the American plan that was designed for the whole Islamic world failed and there is no way it will be able to succeed in Lebanon."

 

Nasrallah also referred to domestic political issues in Lebanon stressing that his organization would not give up on the principle of genuine participation in a national unity government in Lebanon.

 

According to Nasrallah, a government such as this would allow for an open dialogue on issues that have yet to be resolved among the various factions in the country.
