Resistance Always Triumphs
Ibrahim al-Amine - al-Akhbar newspaper*
Once again, European countries prove their bias against the Arabs and against their legitimate rights, on top of which the right to an armed resistance to liberate their land and recuperate their stolen rights. Even as acknowledged by too many European jurists and politicians, Hizbullah cannot be depicted as a "terrorist movement" that revolves around blind and futile violence, attacks on unarmed civilians, and random killing, something that "Israel" itself could not verify against Hizbullah.
What peeves Europe is that the party is a force of resistance that had reaped the support of the majority of the Arab public opinion in July 2006. Ever since, the entire West is questing for unmilitary means to make Hizbullah succumb. The West is staging the most callous gigantic media war based on facts twisting, forging, and deformation in Europe and the Gulf. It is also setting the trap of strife aimed to bog down Lebanon and the region in a sea of blood and to wear out then terminate Hizbullah.
Following the systematic media mendacity catalyzed by a huge universal machine pumping money and means, and after the flames of sectarian strife failed to come off as yet, it was the turn now of the "international legitimacy" seeking to criminalize and demonize the resistance by declaring it a terrorist organization.
But wasn't the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) terrorist once upon a time, until it made concessions to the Zionist entity and enjoyed some mercy?!
The "democracies" of the West only serve "Israel," since Balfour Declaration until the war on Lebanon and Gaza, not to mention the incessant colonial racist policies. This system is still hunted by the historic remorse over its barbarism during WWII against Europe's Jews. What riles it is that Hizbullah is a striking power against an obnoxious occupation that is the spearhead of the western colonization in the Arab East and against "Israel" which only lives through warfare and a military culture in an environment where it was planted forcedly.
Then came the Islamic Resistance and broke the legend of the "Israeli" superiority which different Arab regimes have contributed to upholding, regimes that only made verbal braveries and built their armies to repress their people, regimes that are corrupt, despotic, and that have connived for 50 years to grant "Israel" the chance of military advantage. Hizbullah broke this legend, and then had to pay the price.
Hizbullah is a national Islamic resistance that has confronted the beast with utmost faith and courage, while "Israel" is a military state founded on terrorism and massacres. It only speaks the language of weapons. Hizbullah entrenched the conviction among Arabs that the armed resistance can alone give people their rights back. This resistance has been tamed, foiled, and suppressed several times (starting with PLO after Madrid and Hamas after Islamists reached power and compromised with the West over authority: this devilish contract which the West could not bear for more than few months). But the rebellious untamable resistance is now epitomized in Hizbullah, which constitutes a striking regional power capable of standing in the face of
"Israel," and saying, "No." It is capable of putting forth a deterrence balance with "Israel."
Once again, Europe entered the war alongside "Israel." It declared war against the resistance for political reasons that have nothing to do with international laws or justice-unless we consider that international laws and justice are aimed to protect the rights of the powerful and help them tighten grip on the weak, a fake and partial justice that only serves colonialists in their hegemony over those missing daily bread, freedom, education, and sustainable development.
Were the international institutions and laws created to protect the strategic interests of the "white people," resolute to preserve "Israel's" gory arrogance, dominance over the region, loot of resources, people's exploitation, and culture's termination?
The problem of Europe's "democracies" is that they grant the white people alone the right to enjoy the values of liberation, justice, and occupation's resistance, and depict these rights as invalid for our peoples because they endanger their interests. The problem of the western "democracies" is that they did not learn from the mistakes of the near past. Their problem is also that they refuse to admit that they bear responsibility for the poverty and retardedness of our people who are crushed in such ailing economic structures and repressive policies that are always pro West, obtaining its blessings, and making deals with it!
History moves forward. Do Europe's foreign secretaries, who have just voted the anti-Hizbullah decision, remember how Nazis designated the French resistance? Did this prevent the resistance from triumphing eventually?
