Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said that the opposition is determined to reach a political settlement to Lebanon’s ongoing political crisis. In what was described as the most moderate of his recent speeches, Nasrallah stressed that the period that will follow the upcoming Arab summit in Damascus will not be any different from the current period. “The opposition is keen on reaching a compromise irrespective of the summit,” he said. Nasrallah added that Hizbullah is in favour of unifying opposition ranks into a single entity. Speaking at a ceremony to mark the 40th day since the assassination of Hizbullah military commander Imad Mughniyeh, Nasrallah vowed to avenge the death and said that most Lebanese are united in their wish to see Israel, which he has blamed for the killing, disappear. He said Hizbullah will choose the “time, the place, the way and the means” by which it will avenge the death of the military commander, who was killed in a Damascus car bombing on February 12.
