Welcome home Samir et al...

The handover of the Lebanese prisoners, including Samir Kuntar, and the remains of Lebanese and Palestinian fighters represents a victory against Israel. Nasrallah had promised to return those prisoners and this is indeed the case. I think it silly how Western papers describe the Lebanese as 'trying to portray this as a victory' now that the prisoners are safely back home. Trying?!?! This is a victory over a country which till now has always believed that the only language the Arabs understand is force. This is a victory over a country which killed over 1000 Lebanese civilians in order to 'pressure' the Lebanese government and the world to 'act' against the resistance. A country which is slowly suffocating the people of Gaza and killing them slowly also to 'pressure' them into abandoning resistance. We can conclude with what has in fact been known all along, an entity like this only backs away when enough of this 'pressure' is applied on it to end it's occupation and go back to where it came from. Today is a defeat for Israel and all those who support colonialism and occupation.

They have been defeated and humiliated. I hope the power of Hezbollah will be frightening enough to stop any future attack from those animals
