Sheikh Qassem: Direct Negotiations Are Absurd, "Israel" Currently Incapable of Waging War

Hizbullah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem considered that the direct negotiations between the enemy and the Palestinian authority are absurd, which discharge the entity of its crimes. He added, ""Israel" now come out and tell the world that its crimes, occupations, and all the outrageous acts it committed in the past are not important anymore and things have moved to a new level under the title of "Peace and Solution".

Sheikh Qassem clarified that holding these negotiations without conditions and under American supervision means that all the "Israeli" demands are raised while no Palestinian demand is achievable.

Sheikh Qassem expected that the negotiations will result in complete failure, and would not move any step forward. Furthermore, he considered that adopting periodic meetings means that negotiations could go on for years without achieving any result, and the "Israeli" could put certain pressure that would discharge it of all its responsibilities, as he would not halt settlement construction, crimes, aggressions, and threats of assaulting Gaza and the West Bank. In addition, it would proceed in the blockade it is imposing on the strip.

Hizbullah Deputy Secretary General pointed out the various crises inside the Zionist entity. He reminded that the liberation Hizbullah achieved in 2000 and in confronting the "Israeli" aggression in 2006, and the heroic defiance people in Gaza and Hamas presented in 2008, all initiated in the serious changes in the region's situation regarding "Israel".

Sheikh Qassem assured, "These victories troubled "Israel". Moreover, they confused the "Israeli" society because of the great gaps between its political powers, and because of its administrational corruption on all levels.

He indicated that persistence of the resistance in Lebanon and Palestine would lead to the increased deterioration of this entity.

Regarding the continuous "Israeli" threats against the resistant forces, Sheikh Kassem pointed out that these threats did not stop against Syria, Iran, Lebanon, and Gaza.

"We cannot imagine "Israel" without threats, violations, and wars," he added, clarifying that the current phase does not permit any "Israeli" aggression, first because of the complications Zionists are facing, and second because of the active forces in the resistant countries' readiness for all kinds of confrontations.

Sheikh Qassem stated that Iran is the most prominent country holding on to the Palestinian cause as a concern and responsibility, as it takes advantage of every meeting or event to raise the cause and support the Palestinians' right to regain their land completely.

Sheikh Qassem greeted the Islamic Republic of Iran, Imam Ali Khamenei, President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, and the Muslim Iranian people supportive of the Palestinian righteous cause.

Hizbullah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem concluded by saying, "Our responsibility is to prepare for any possible confrontation with the enemy, as for Victory it is by God."

He assured, "All the historical events prove the victory of the oppressed minority in face of the arrogant majority, when faith is a true faith in God Almighty, and determination is an honest one."
