Moussawi Slams STL: It Will Not Force Resistance to Surrender
Loyalty to the Resistance bloc MP Nawwaf al-Moussawi said on Saturday that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon was formed to slam the resistance’s image, the National News Agency reported.
U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs “Jeffrey Feltman confessed to the Congress that the U.S. administration spent $500 million to reduce Hizbullah’s attractiveness among Lebanese youth,” Moussawi said.
He stressed that “those who sponsored the false witnesses and still are, don’t want the truth.”
The NNA quoted the MP as saying that “the international tribunal, accusations and the slogans will not force the resistance to surrender.”
“The U.S. and the West aim at igniting a sectarian strife in Lebanon to create the new Middle East,” Moussawi added.
He noted that some people in Lebanon wanted to stay in power by forcing the resistance to surrender.
However, Moussawi said that “national responsibility requires us to be united.”
He urged the officials to take responsibility and face the U.S. policies, saying that the U.S. “only makes friends to use them as tools to achieve its goals.”
Hizbullah’s MP said that the “critical situation (we’re passing through) requires everyone to halt all sectarian statements that are based on hatred and lies.”
