Loyalty to Resistance: Hizbullah Battle in Qalamoun is a National Duty
The Loyalty to the Resistance bloc urged on Thursday support for Hizbullah and "its mission of confronting foreign aggression."
MP Hassan Fadlallah said after the bloc's weekly meeting: “The battle that Hizbullah is waging in al-Qalamoun is a national duty obligated by the interests of our people.”
“The sacrifices being made there will come to reflect positively” on the country, he added in reference to the battles Hizbullah and the Syrian regime are leading against rebels and armed groups in the Syrian border region of al-Qalamoun.
“We call on all segments of the population to adhere to the resistance in order to protect Lebanon against existential threats,” he stressed.
“We salute the brave resistance fighters who are defending Lebanon against takfiri threats,” declared Fadlallah.
Addressing the presidential vacuum, he said: “The ongoing vacuum is a sign of the depth of the crisis in Lebanon.”
He once again indirectly held the March 14 camp responsible for the vacuum, accusing it of holding on to its stances “in a manner that violates the constitution.”
Lebanon has been without a president since May 2014 when the term of Michel Suleiman ended without the election of a successor.
Ongoing disputes between the rival March 8 and 14 camps over a compromise candidate have thwarted the polls.
