Nasrallah proud of being US enemy

Secretary General of the Lebanese Islamic Resistance Movement Hezbollah criticized American President George W. Bush Sunday for accusing the Islamic Republic of Iran of supporting 'militant' groups in the region and calling them 'terrorist'.

Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was speaking Sunday night in Beirut to thousands of Lebanese people.

"I won't hide it. I felt honored when Bush spoke about Hezbollah and resistance movements because when the pharaoh and the Great Satan accuse us and considers us enemies ... it is an honor for us."

Nasrallah said that since Bush could no longer cast doubt on the nature of Iran's nuclear activities, he accused the Islamic Republic of supporting 'terrorism' in Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan.

"Wherever there is resistance, Iran is accused of supporting resistance movements, and these movements, in Bush's point of view are terrorists," he said.

"He supports the nation of terrorism, killing and wars," Nasrallah said, referring to Zionist regime.

"When a country like Iran or Syria supports resistance movements that are defending their children, women, land, homes and holy places' against Israel, then this is a terrorist state that supports terrorism," Nasrallah concluded.
