Iran Involved
Addressing a ceremony in Beirut on Tuesday on the occasion of anniversary of the birth of the holy Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and the 33rd anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Nasrallah stated that the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran gave "momentum to the project of Islamic unity".
He lauded Iran's support for the Lebanese resistance group, and noted, "Hezbollah has received from Iran the moral, political and financial support in all its available forms since 1982".
"This support is a pride of the Islamic republic, because the resistance has achieved the most prominent Arab victory over the enemy. This victory wasn't to be achieved without Iranian support, and Syria had a big role in the victory."
The remarks by Nasrallah came days after Supreme Leader of Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei stressed Iran's direct involvement in the Palestinian and Lebanese confrontation against Israel, including the Lebanese Summer 2006 33-day resistance against the Zionist regime.
"Wherever Iran interferes, it announces it in a very straightforward manner. For instance, we interfered in confrontations against Israel, which resulted in the (Lebanese) victory in the 33-day war and (Palestinians' victory in) the 22-day (Gaza) war," Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing millions of Friday Prayers worshippers on Tehran University Campus.
