Kintar: Hizbullah Will Help Iran Fend Off Threats

Source: Alalam.ir, 13-8-2008
BEIRUT--Lebanon's freed prisoner Samir Kintar has announced that in case of any threats against Iran his fighters will not leave the Iranian nation alone and help defend the country.
Kintar told Al-Alam Tuesday: "In case of any attacks against Iran, we will not remain idol, because any blow to the Islamic republic is in fact a blow the world's deprived nations."
He said: "We have learned lesson of allegiance from the late Imam Khomeini School; drawing on this lesson we say that we will not leave the Iranian nation alone. This is a word pledged by any fighter for the cause of God."
Kintar, the Lebanon's longest-held prisoner in "Israel" by the time of his release, was freed along with five other Palestinian prisoners as part of a prisoner exchange deal between the "Israeli" occupying regime and the Hizbullah movement last month.
The agreement saw the occupying regime trade the prisoners and the remains of some 200 resistance fighters for the bodies of two of its soldiers captured prior to the 33-day Lebanon war in 2006, which dealt a devastating blow to the "Israeli" regime.
The swap deal was celebrated across Lebanon as a victory for Hizbullah resistance movement.
Kintar told the Arabic language network that Iran's Islamic Revolution led by Imam Khomeini (peace be upon him) "inspired the Lebanese groups with the spirit of resistance and fighting."
"Under the auspicious guidance of the late Imam Khomeini, Lebanese resistance revived and now it has become an influential power in the region," Kintar said.
He further said that Iran's support of the Lebanese people contributed to their victories in 2000 and 2006 against the "Israeli" occupying regime.
"The Lebanese nation will never forget the Islamic republic's helps and supports nor will it leave the Iranian nation alone in tough days," Kintar said.
