Beirut - Arabstoday
The head of Hezbollah\'s foreign relations department, Ali Daamoush, said during the Friday sermon at the Sayyida Zainab complex in Hart Hreik that Hezbollah is ready for any confrontation with Israel, and that recent belligerent statements by Israeli officials conform to an aggressive Israeli mentality, according to a Hezbollah press release issued Saturday. Daamoush\'s comments came in response to recent media reports quoting high-ranking Israeli military officials as reiterating warnings that in any future conflict, Israel would not hesitate to strike Lebanon\'s infrastructure in addition to Hezbollah targets. In a thinly veiled reference to the March 14 coalition, Daamoush said that \"the resistance is ready for any confrontation Israel may impose, despite the presence of domestic forces that ignore the Israeli threats and target the resistance and do not cease attacking it and its weapons.\" Daamoush urged the Lebanese to rally around the \"tripartite formula of the army, the people and the resistance\" as the most effective means of confronting the Israeli threat.
