Palestinians’ presence in al-Quds best policy to foil Israel plot: Nasrallah
Tehran (KNA) - The secretary general of the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement has described the presence of Palestinian population in various districts of Jerusalem al-Quds, and their participation in Muslim religious rituals across the occupied city as the best polices to thwart the Israeli regime’s attempts to change its demographics.
Addressing his supporters via a televised speech broadcast live from the Lebanese capital city of Beirut on the occasion of the International Quds Day, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah stated that many countries have rejected US President Donald Trump's decision to move the American diplomat mission in the occupied territories to Jerusalem al-Quds, and that his much touted "deal of the century" aims to terminate the Palestinian cause.Nasrallah added that Israeli officials have been seeking to change the demographic make-up of Jerusalem al-Quds ever since the Tel Aviv regime was created in 1967.
The Hezbollah chief noted that the Lebanese people marked this year's Quds Day in the southern village of Maroun al-Ras as it lies on the border with occupied Palestinian lands.
"The occupying regime (of Israel) has failed to change al-Quds demography despite considerable efforts over the past years. Palestinians are resolved to stay in their homes, and they need the full support of Arab and Muslims to achieve such a goal," he pointed out.Nasrallah also criticized Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates for their efforts to persuade other Muslim countries that Israelis reserve a right in Palestine.
"They falsify and distort the meanings of holy Quran verses in a bid to protect their regimes through obeying US orders, recognizing the Zionist regime (of Israel) and eradicating the Palestinian cause," he commented.
