Whoever sets as a condition that the aid should not be used to protect Lebanon's land, people and borders from the [Zionist] enemy can keep their money...Let them keep their money or give it to Israel. We will confront [Israel] with our own capabilities...
---Lebanese Defense Minister Elias Murr
I actually respect him for this. He is willing to say flat out that we will not change our policy, what is in our best interests, just to get some US money... Good for them!
would he say it if he didn't have iran backing him up?
