Naharnet - Hizbullah Source: They Were Wrong to Provoke us, which Heightened Their Crisis and the U.S.' as Well - October 30, 2010

A leading Hizbullah source told As Safir on Saturday that the party "has been provoked on the organizational and popular levels after the international investigation's latest activity."
It said that the "suspicious investigations" are aimed at "tightening the noose around Hizbullah, under American and Israeli wishes."

Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah sought in his latest speech to reveal the international investigation's cards, which is working on convincing the public that it seeks the truth in the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, the source continued.

"Hizbullah is aware that the international committee and those behind it are preparing the appropriate atmosphere to issue the indictment and we believe that they made a mistake in their assessment of the party," it added.

"They were wrong to provoke it and this mistake has heightened their crisis and the Americans' crisis in Lebanon," the source remarked.

"They should understand that they may set up their courts and committees, but they do not concern us," it concluded.
