MP Mohammad Raad on Monday said Hizbullah fully supported "the state project in Lebanon" and that the party's disputes with its political opponents were not over the concept of a state but over the system of the state.
 
During a commemoration ceremony in Tayr Diba marking the passing of one year since the assassination of top Hizbullah operative Imad Moghnieh, Raad, who heads Hizbullah's Loyalty to the Resistance parliamentary bloc, said it was difficult for those who "give their blood for the nation to remain free to live with those with a mentality that wastes the country's heritage."

"There is a bright national picture the Lebanese Army provided in coordination with the Resistance ... yet there is also a shameful image created by some officers who were brought up with the mentality of forgiving and welcoming the enemy ... that takes our land, kills our children and our women and destroys our homes," he added.

"What awaits the "Israeli" enemy is tens of thousands similar to the martyr Imad Moghnieh who are fighting in defense of their dignity and their country's people because they were brought up to believe Lebanon is entitled to justice and truth," Raad said.

Raad concluded with a statement on Palestine. "No matter how furious other states become, the nation wants an answer to the closure of the Rafah crossing," he said.
