Nasrallah regrets war in hindsight
Resistance leader says lebanese need not fear second round of fighting
Hizbullah's secretary general said Sunday that had the resistance known, "even 1 percent," that Israel would respond in the way that it did to the July 12 capture of two Israeli soldiers, the group would not have carried out the operation. In an interview with New Television, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said: "If I knew that the capture of the soldiers would have led to this result, had Hizbullah known even 1 percent, we definitely would have not carried it out."
Nasrallah added that the Lebanese need not fear a new round of fighting because Hizbullah would ignore "Israel's provocations."
"If we responded to these provocations, we would be in violation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and this could open the debate on a second resolution, which [US President George W.] Bush wants and which is connected with disarming the resistance," he said.
