Hezbollah MP calls for equipping army before discussing group's arms
Hezbollah MP Hussein Jishi stressed Thursday that “the arms of the resistance are what liberated the land and ousted the enemy.”
“We agree that our national army is the side concerned with protecting the country and preventing the enemy from attacking us, but we must work on equipping the army with all the necessary capabilities so that it can perform the needed missions, and only then the issue of arms should be raised,” Jishi added.
“It is the right of all Lebanese, especially the residents of the South, to live safely, away from threats and daily attacks on them by the Zionist enemy. As for what is being said that the army’s prestige and international relations are sufficient for liberating the land, this is unrealistic, and throughout the past decades our land was only liberated through resistance,” the MP went on to say.
