Qassem says Hezbollah will not give up on right to resist

Hezbollah leader Sheikh Naim Qassem has said that Hezbollah's disarmament is a domestic issue and that Israel "has no business interfering in domestic affairs."
"We will not accept to hand over our land and our arms to the Israeli enemy," Qassem said Wednesday, adding that Hezbollah has the right to resist Israel and will not give up on this right or be affected by pressures.

Qassem conveniently forgets that his Hezbollah predecessors chose and in fact made itself, its military capabilities, and its arms an international affair.
Does Qassem accuse Lebanon's elected government and the LAF of being "Israel"? No one but Qassem speaks about turning over anything to Israel. Hezbollah has been called upon by the people of Lebanon and through its duly elected government to disarm .. as it promised then failed to do at the end of the civil war.
Be a man, Qassem: live up to your work and obligations to the country that has long been very good to you. Or stay in Iran, if you prefer, but in that case you have no business interfering in Lebanon's domestic affairs.

You didn't need to hear it from him. Haven't I been telling you for eons, they will not surrender their arms. I am not Nostradamus, I just know the hezboz. My hometown is loaded with them
