IDF Spoksperson 25 November 2002
Nasrallah commended the Palestinian armed struggle and the use of suicide
bombings in a number of conventions in Beirut. His statements were quoted in
the Hizbullah official magazine El-Intikad (November 15, 2002). Nasrallah
called for a worldwide spread of the culture of suicide bombings.
Herewith is an excerpt of Nasrallah's statements:
"We view America as an enemy of the [Islamic] nation yet we have not engaged
it directly in a military act (as of yet)". "The nation has resumed the use
of suicide attacks, without the act of suicide the struggle is meaningless.
The American government and the experts in America and Israel as well as the
military generals were unable to eliminate the concept of suicide (attacks)
and the weapon of suicide attacks. Since the Sharm-El-Sheikh [summit] they
speak of dismembering the organizations (of terror) and attacking the
organizational infrastructure yet were unsuccessful [in achieving their
goal]. Due to that we must act in order to spread the concept of death for
the realization of Allah's way as well as the act of suicide among the
[Islamic] nation in order to protect our land".
It should be noted that the European Union declared the military wing of the
Hizbullah as a "terror organization". Hassan Nasrallah, who stands at the
head of the Hizbullah movement, and thus at the head of both the military
and political wings, is responsible for directing the terrorism policy of
the movement and encourages Palestinian terror against Israel as well as
terror attacks against western targets around the world.
Herewith are the relevant excerpts of Nasrallah's statements:
