Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah-Maharram 10, 1423 Posted on Saturday, April 6, 2002
The Secretary-General of Hizbullah Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah addresses the people at the conclusion of their march on the 10th day of Muharram (3/24/02)
Dear brothers and sisters, May peace be upon you;
"We meet again while the memory returns wearing the perfume of dignity and pride created by blood and martyrdom..."
"We are calling for the Arab Summit to loudly raise its voice, at the beginning of its opening statement, and to frankly declare support of the Infifada and resistance of Palestine and Lebanon; any statements issued without supporting Intifada and the resistance would be statements that were dictated by an American will and an Arabic hand."....
"Israel is an absolute lie and an emergent raping entity, yet it is a cancerous gland that should be extracted, and a terrorist occupier who has no legitimacy or right at all, and never have".....
"In these days when we are recalling a memory that should be summoned up in every situation, where ther is injustice, tyranny, autocracy on one hand, and revolution, Jihad, and martyrdom on the other, a stand that was symbolized by Al Hussein (p). This is why we say that Ashouraa this year is the day for Al Hussein and for Palestine, Intifada, and the resistance in Palestine. It is the day for Jihad, martyrdom, and pure blood. The day for mothers who have a firm belief that encourges them to push their children toward martyrdom in order to meet Allah and defend the dignity and pride of this nation".....
"This year we renew our answers to Al Hussein's call and sy that we will be next to the suppressed people in Palestine who show today, the values of Al Hussein in Karbalaa. These are the values of Jihad, martyrdom, refusal of humiliation, and readiness for sacrifice, while looking forward to the life hereafter, and work for the satifaction of our Allah. Therefore with our fist upa nd our voices raised, we bid our cities farewell as every year until the next year. We remember the loneliness of Al Hussein with sympathy after all of his family and followers had died while his enemies were surrounding him with their dead hearts. Then we should ask ourselves, whom was he calling for when he was alone? He was calling for all the generations throughout history, and his call was: is there anyone who can help me? Is there anyone who would defend the honor of the family of the prophet (P)? As if he asked, is there anyone who would defend the honor of the Moslems and sacred places of Palestine? Then suddenly the response came from the blood of our martyrs, the chains of our prisoners, the pains and heartaches of our wounded, the tears of the mothers, wives and orphans of the martyrs, the patience of our prisonoers families, the veins of ouu combatants, form our throats and your throats, let's shout high: Hussein here we are at your service. We must also confirm from such responsible possition that our symbols will survive. We are still the same since before or after September 11, berfore or after the doors were shut, before, or after we were placed on the list of terrorists. We do not except to submit to this huge autocratic and arrogant evil that wants to subdue the whole world. Our chant taught to us by our leader Khomeini will always rise high: DEATH TO AMERICA!!
"In regards to this Israeli entity, this absolute wrong, corruption, tyranny, terror, and cancer, it will always meet refusal regardless of the reconciliation, recoginitions, and surrendering. Our children and grandchidren shall have this legacy of faith and belief, which we carry, and hopefully I believe that we will be with the generation, which will achieve victory in Palistine and pray in the holy place of Al Quds. We have no doubt in this faith, we have an unhesitating commitment in our resistance, its guns, bullets, and the blood of its combatants: DEATH TO ISRAEL!!
