Hezbollah offered billions to disarm: Qassem
BEIRUT: Hezbollah has rejected billions of dollars offered to the party in exchange for the surrender of its arsenal, deputy secretary-general Naim Qassem said Monday.
“Billions of dollars have been offered to us to rebuild the deprived south Lebanon and in return to surrender our arms and stop the work of the resistance,”Qassem said during a ceremony for the eighth edition of his book ‘Hezbollah.’
“But we told them we’re not in need [of their money] and the resistance will go on regardless of the consequences,’ he added.
Because piles of money can’t kill Jews like all those weapons can.
