Hizbullah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem reiterated that Hizbullah would avenge its military commander martyr Imad Moghnieh's assassination (Hajj Redwan) and said the solution to the cabinet crisis is through dialogue and not media campaigns.

"All sides have demands. The premier-designate should put a plan and find a way to remove obstacles," Sheikh Qassem told the Iranian Al-Alam news channel on Tuesday.

"The issue does not require mediation between the PM-designate and the different (parliamentary) blocs. Let there be openness, solutions and alternatives," his eminence said.

"Problems won't be solved through media campaigns. Throwing the ball in (Free Patriotic Movement leader General Michel) Aoun's court is part of media campaigns that complicate issues," Sheikh Qassem added.

On the assassination of Hizbullah commander Moghnieh in a Damascus car bombing last year, Sheikh Qassem said: "Hizbullah has kept its promise. The decision to avenge Imad Moghnieh's murder has been taken. The place and time would be known during execution (of the plan)."

He reiterated that "Israel" was behind the Hizbullah commander's killing.

Turning to the issue of Sami Shehab, who was arrested for being a member of an alleged Hizbullah cell planning attacks in Egypt, Sheikh Qassem said: "We are determined not to bring up the issue politically or through the media which might create tension between Hizbullah and Egypt."
