Hizbullah: Sheikh Qassem’s statement to Al Watan was misinterpreted

Local Editor, 02-04-2010

The following is a clarification to the misconception on Sheikh Qassem's statement:

The Interview with Hizbullah Deputy Secretary General, Sheikh Naim Qassem, with Al Watan Saudi newspaper on Wednesday 31-03-2010, was misinterpreted, leading to a misconception that H.E. Sheikh Qassem's question was an answer.

The interview posted on the newspaper's website shows that the question mark was dropped from the end of the question, making it look more like an answer.

As clear in the voiced interview, it goes as follows:

Question: There is some information on Syrian and Palestinian breakthroughs, through which Imad Moghniyeh's identity was uncovered, therefore identifying his features, monitoring his life, and assassinating him next?

Answer: Let us wait until the end of investigations, and when the image is clear and complete, we will give out details for the public. The operation is enormous, and thus needs exceptional and huge efforts.
