Hundreds of Iranians arrived on Tuesday night at Palestine Square in central Tehran in order to celebrate the two-year anniversary of July 2006 victory the "Truthful Pledge" , the Iranian Fars news agency reported.
Women waved signs with pictures of Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and men carried Hizbullah and Palestinian Authority flags at another part of the square. One of Sayyed Nasrallah's pictures was attached to balloons and set free.
Iran's cultural attaches in Beirut also conducted a ceremony commemorating the occasion on Monday. The event included Lebanon's foreign minister. An official of the Iranian embassy in Lebanon said at the ceremony that "Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Hizbullah's secretary-general is a source of pride in Lebanon, Palestine and all the free people worldwide."
Thirty-three balloons were released to mark the 33 days of war. According to the Fars news agency, the demonstration included 500-600 participants.
A live satellite screening of Hizbullah's Deputy Secretary General, Sheikh Naim Qassem speech was shown. According to Sheikh Qassem, July war, "was the beginning of a new strategy in the Middle East."
Samir Kintar also gave a live satellite speech in front of those present on the Iranian network al-Alam. Lebanon's freed detainee Kintar has announced that in case of any threats against Iran, fighters will not leave the Iranian nation alone and help defend the country.
Kintar, the Lebanon's longest-held prisoner in "Israel" by the time of his release, was freed in Operation Al-Redwan along with four Hizbullah fighters and the remains of some 200 resistance fighters as part of UN-brokered swap exchange between "Israel" and Hizbullah last month in exchange with the bodies of two "Israeli" soldiers captured prior to the 33-day Lebanon war in 2006, which dealt a devastating blow to the "Israeli" regime.
The swap deal was celebrated across Lebanon as a victory for Hizbullah resistance movement.
Kintar told Al-Alam that "in case of any attacks against Iran, we will not remain idol, because any blow to the Islamic republic is in fact a blow the world's deprived nations." We have learned lesson of allegiance from the late Imam Khomeini School; from this lesson we say that we will not leave the Iranian nation alone. This is a word pledged by any fighter for the cause of God."
He also said that Imam Khomeini "inspired the Lebanese groups with the spirit of resistance and fighting."
He further said that Iran's support of the Lebanese people contributed to victories in 2000 and 2006 against the "Israeli" occupying regime. "The Lebanese nation will never forget the Islamic republic's helps and supports nor will it leave the Iranian nation alone in tough days," Kintar added.
