| Kuntar continues struggle against Israel |
| 2008-10-24 |
| Lebanese resistance fighter Samir Kuntar says he is more committed than ever to his longtime struggle against the Israeli regime. "As long as there is something called Israel in this region, the resistance must continue ... and I am totally committed to the resistance. I am ready to take part in any resistance mission." Kuntar, 46, told AFP in an interview. He said he now spends his days mostly in meetings linked to the resistance and is convinced that Israel is preparing a major attack against Lebanon. "They don't realize what we have in store for them. Israel is going to suffer great losses and they will lose for sure. The idea that Israel is an invincible, secure state has become a myth," he noted. Kuntar claimed that even if Israel withdraws from the contested Shebaa Farms territory in southern Lebanon which was captured in 1967, the Lebanese resistance would continue with its struggle against Israel. The Lebanese fighter mentioned he was not especially concerned for his safety and realized he could never lead a normal life though he hoped to one day marry and have children. "I guess my message to the Israelis today is that they didn't manage to break me," he concluded. On July 16, Samir Kuntar and four other Lebanese prisoners tasted freedom and arrived in Lebanon as part of a prisoner swap between Hezbollah and Israel. |
