Lebanese support Hezbollah: Ghinwa

24 Jul, 2006

Chairperson of Pakistan People Party (Shaheed Bhutto) Ghinwa Bhutto, who is in Lebanon, said that people of all faiths, including Shia, Sunnis and Christians are behind the Hezbollah vowing to die rather to accept the Israeli occupation of Lebanon.
In an interview she said that Southern parts of Beirut, a stronghold of Hezbollah, are facing the worst situation as Israel has always been targeting these areas largely inhabited by the supporters of the Hezbollah.
To a question she said that Beirut is not totally cut off from the rest of the world but most of the villages in southern Lebanon remain isolated with several bridges destroyed.
To another question Ghinwa Bhutto said that she have been staying in Tripoli where the situation is better than that of the southern parts, including Beirut. She said that the people of Beirut are tough enough not to leave their city and most of them are still in the city.
She said that people from all walks of life are supporting the Hezbollah because it is fighting for the cause of the whole Arab world. People are fully united to support the Hezbollah, she added.
