Hizbullah Will Defeat Financial Invasion in June Elections
Hizbullah official in south Lebanon Sheikh Nabil Qaouq said Monday that the resistance will defeat the financial invasion in the upcoming parliamentary elections.
"The same way the resistance defeated the military invasion in July 2006 and the political invasion in 2008, the resistance will defeat the financial invasion in the elections of 2009," Qaouq said.
The June 7 elections, particularly in the south, would become a public referendum on the resistance, according to the Hizbullah official.
He said Lebanon should boost national unity in the aftermath of the Israeli elections.
"The challenges that resulted from the Israeli polls compel Lebanon to reinforce national understanding and the government of national unity," Qaouq said.
He accused "the other side of creating crises starting with delaying compensation for the July aggression victims all the way to attempts to cancel the Council of the South and postpone and decrease its budget."
