The
Swap Deal With Lebanon Prompts
Palestinian Resistance To Raise Its
Demands |

July 17, 2008
The popular resistance committees stated Wednesday that the
conclusion of a prisoner swap deal between the Lebanese
resistance and the Israeli occupation would prompt the
Palestinian resistance factions, which are capturing Israeli
soldier Gilad Shalit, to increase their demands.
In a press statement to the Quds Press, Abu Mujahid, the
spokesman for the committees, said that Israel's ban on the
release of those who killed Israelis was broken after it
released Lebanese fighter Samir Al-Kuntar and this makes the
Palestinian resistance demand the release of all Palestinian
prisoners serving high sentences in any swap deal with the
Israeli occupation.
Abu Mujahid hailed the swap deal between the Lebanese resistance
and Israel as an honorable deal and a big triumph for the
resistance in Palestine and Lebanon.
For his part, Dr. Ahmed Bahar, the acting speaker of the PLC,
opined that the swap deal was a victory scored for the
Palestinian resistance against the Israeli occupation and a fall
of the Israeli arrogance and false slogans against the release
of all resistance fighters after the release of Kuntar from
Israel jails.
Dr. Bahar underlined that the Israeli occupation understands the
language of force in order to return usurped rights to its
owners and has no options other than to acquiesce to the demands
of the resistance.
On Wednesday, the Lebanese resistance handed the remains of two
Israeli soldiers who were captured two years ago in exchange for
the release of Quntar and four of his colleagues in addition to
200 Palestinian and Lebanese martyrs.
A large number of Palestinian citizens along with Hamas leaders
and MPs participated on the same day in a massive march
organized by Hamas in the northern Gaza Strip to celebrate the
swap deal and express their solidarity with Sudanese president
Omar Al-Bashir.
The masses carried pictures of the Sudanese president and
Lebanese fighters and banners demanding the prosecution of
warmongers who committed real war crimes against children, women
and innocent people in Palestine, Afghanistan and Iraq.
While expressing their happiness for the victory achieved by the
Lebanese resistance, the participants condemned the attempts to
prosecute the Sudanese president as flagrant interference in
Sudan's internal affairs.
During the march, Yasser Harb, a Hamas leader, stated that the
path of resistance proves day after day that it is the most
suitable option and not the frivolous negotiations which only
succeeded in releasing prisoners who are serving few months in
Israeli jails. |
