Loyalty to Resistance: Laqqis' Assassination Boost to Fighters' Will-Power
Loyalty to Resistance bloc called on Thursday for lifting March 14's political cover for Takfiris in Syria, noting that the assassination of Hizbullah military official Hassan al-Laqqis will “boost the will-power” of the party's fighters.
"Laqqis' terrorist assassination is a Zionist attack that carries several dangerous meanings,” MP Hasan Fadlallah said after the bloc's weekly meeting, noting that the attack requires becoming “more strict to face a scenario that aims at targeting the resistance.”
Fadlallah stressed, however, that the commander's martyrdom will “boost the fighters' will-power to confront the Zionist enemy.”
Hizbullah official Hajj Hassan Hollo al-Laqqis was assassinated Wednesday overnight near his residence in Hadath in Beirut's southern suburbs.
The party accused Israel of carrying out the assassination, revealing that Laqqis “was subjected several times and in several areas to failed assassination attempts.”
Israel denied its involvement in the incident, warning against any attack launched by Hizbullah as a form of retaliation.
Separately, the Loyalty to Resistance bloc warned after the meeting of "Takfiri terrorism," calling on all factions in Lebanon to “confront this trend that threatens Lebanon's existence.”
“We call on March 14 and all groups in the country to stop embracing and finding justifications for Takfiris,” Fadlalleh urged.
He added: “We condemn all attacks by Takfiris against the Syrian people and against Christians that are being killed and violated. Takfiri attacks do not stop at religious figures and symbols and the attack against churches, the burning of houses and the kidnapping of nuns require condemnation.”
The Hizbullah MPs discussed the security situation in the northern city of Tripoli, also accusing the March 14 alliance of supporting street fighters.
They expressed in their released statement: “The solution to Tripoli's situation is found in dialogue between all concerned factions until a consensus is reached to provide political cover for the army's presence, in order for troops to preserve security.”
The bloc praised the newly reached accord between world powers and Iran on Tehran's nuclear program, saying it will reflect “positively on international relations and will alleviate the possibilities of war.”
“This will assure stability in most of the region's countries,” it said.
The lawmakers urged the formation of a new cabinet, stressing that the 9-9-6 equation is the “real solution” to the current deadlock.
“This equation is a standard that should be adopted in the constitution because political blocs consider themselves fairly represented.”
