Dubai: Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah made a rare public appearance at a celebration rally for the five fighters released by Israel on Wednesday.

The rally, in the southern suburbs of Beirut, was attended by hundreds of thousands of people.

Nasrallah, who has appeared in public just once in the last two years, gave a short speech before introducing Samir Kantar, who had spent 29 years in an Israeli jail.

Kantar thanked god for giving him the capabilities to withstand his time in captivity and told the crowd he had returned from Palestine, a place which was dear to his heart.

He said the era of defeats was over and that he only came from Palestine so he could go back.

"I promise my beloved in Palestine, we are coming back," he added.

After Kantar had spoken, Nasrallah then addressed the crowd via a video screen in a much longer speech.

He said that his group had proved that resistance had worked and that he had now given a model for others, even if it meant being labelled as terrorists by the international community.

He reminded his audience that there were 11,000 Palestinian and other Arab prisoners still in Israeli jails and sent a message and threw down a challenge to other Arab governments, saying it was an “unacceptable for the arab and Islamic world to ignore this situation and say it is a Palestinian issue.”

He said he believed in resistance but laid down the challenged to people who believe in diplomacy to make efforts to free the prisoners.

Turning back to Lebanon and the new unity government, the Hezbollah leader expressed his gratitude to President Michel Suleiman who he said “insisted on welcoming captives in a national celebration”.

He also thanked other politicians past and present who took part in the welcome ceremony at Beirut Airport and stressed the importance of the national unity government, which held its first cabinet meeting today.

Nasrallah stressed that their ultimate goal was the return of land that was rightfully theirs. He said the prisoners return had proved Lebanon was a country "worth fighting for".

He congratulated the Lebanese people for the "victory and achievement" of the prisoners' return.

Samir Kantar, the Lebanese fighter who spent nearly 30 years in an Israeli prison, and four other Lebanese prisoners were released yesterday in a landmark prisoners' exchange deal between the Jewish state and Hezbollah.

The Lebanese group handed over the bodies of two Israeli soldiers captured by its fighters two years ago in a cross border raid which sparked an Israeli all out war against Lebanon in the summer of 2006.

Kantar and the four Hezbollah fighters wiped away tears as they walked to freedom in the border town of Naqoura to the cheers of hundreds of officials and Hezbollah supporters.

They were then flown in a presidential helicopter to Beirut airport, where they were received by President Michel Sulaiman and senior officials from both the ruling coalition and the opposition.

Lebanon, which went close to a civil war just two months ago, never looked as united as it did yesterday, throwing a hero's welcome party to the five freed prisoners. The government declared a national holiday yesterday.

Kantar was sentenced to five life terms by Israel for a 1979 a cross border attack in which an Israeli policeman and another man were killed.

The man's daughter was also killed in the crossfire, according to Kantar's testimony, although Israelis claim the girl was killed by Kantar.

His mother, Siham Kantar, 71, was shown on television embracing the freed man's brother and crying tears of joy as she awaited him at Beirut airport. "I never gave up hope for a day," she said, choking back tears.

"This moment makes up for 30 years of waiting." The five were released in exchange for the bodies of two Israeli soldiers, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, captured on July 12, 2006.

The fate of the two soldiers was not known until their bodies were returned to Israel yesterday morning.

The mood in Israel was sombre as the two bodies of Goldwasser and Regev, arrived in black coffins. Goldwasser's family broke down in cries of despair when they saw the footage of Hezbollah handing over the caskets, while neighbours gathered around the Regev home, lighting candles and quietly shedding tears.

Israel's leading newspaper Maariv said the exchange was another victory for Hezbollah.

"The Hezbollah leader [Hassan Nasrallah] will entrench his image as the only Arab leader who fought against Israel and defeated it," it lamented.

True, Nasrallah is the only Arab leader who's fighting against Israel. He's alone, still carrying victory. Imagine how would it be if Arabs unite again.
