| 24/05/2008 FIRST ISRAELI DEFEAT SINCE START OF ARAB ISRAELI CONFLICT
On the fourth day of liberation, the released detainees from the Khiam detention center headed to the capital Beirut, precisely to Haret Hreik in its southern suburb. A very big celebration was held in the Shoura square where Hezbollah Secretary General praised the first glorious victory of its kind since the beginning of the Arab – Israeli conflict. "We are gathered here celebrating the freedom that we took by ourselves; it was not a present from anybody, neither from Israel, the coward fleeing collaborator Antoine Lahd, the United Nations, the Security Council, nor the international community, while the Israeli have gathered journalists to photograph their last humiliated soldier getting out of our land and closing the gate behind him," Sayyed Nasrallah Said.
"What happened today was not a complete pullout. Part of our land is still occupied (Shebaa Farms) and Lebanese men are still in Israeli jails," he added.
The enemy acknowledged before the friend that what Lebanon had witnessed in May 2000, was an historic and unprecedented event in the decades long Arab conflict with Israel.
Like every historic event, the day of Resistance and liberation had left its impact on political and social levels in Lebanon, the region and the world.
In Lebanon, the frustration of the people, due to 22 years of Israeli occupation and disregarded international resolutions, changed into belief that they have enough power to thwart any scheme against Lebanon, even if they were as big as Israeli and US schemes.
On the other hand, the liberation of most of south Lebanon reformed political trends as the conception of resisting the occupation proved efficient after it was doubted that it could ever accomplish such results.
Analysts believe that the liberation was the impetus behind the second Palestinian Intifada in September 2000, at a time Israeli Palestinian negotiations over Palestinian rights were ruled by Israeli dictations.
Today is the eighth anniversary of the Resistance and Liberation; a day of pride and glory the current unconstitutional government took off the calendar of official holidays in 2006.
Six year later, Israel will acknowledge its first defeat in a 33-day war that exhausted both military and political commands, in their war on Hezbollah to crush it militarily.
Today, on the eighth anniversary of this historic day, the resistance and with it all the honest Lebanese, has thwarted another attempt to target its arms that liberated the land, freed the detainees and continues to deter Israel as it did in August 2006; a date that marked the beginning of the countdown to Israel's imminent and undoubted end.
On the eighth anniversary, we say to Sayyed Nasrallah, to the martyrs, to their leader Imad Moghniyeh, to the long suffering injured fighters and civilians, to Hezbollah's community, to the steadfast people in Lebanon, to the raised hands across the world praying for the resistance, to all resistance movements in the world: ((And how many cities, with more power than thy city which has driven thee out, have We destroyed? And there was none to aid them)) Muhammad V13 |
