Nasrallah slams democracies changing laws to suit Israel
Beirut, 2009 Dec 25, IRIB
Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah criticized on Wednesday Western "deep-rooted" so-called democracies that change their whole judicial systems just to suit the Israeli enemy and prevent the arrest of Israeli officials accused of committing war crimes against the Palestinian people.
Speaking during the 7th Ashura night at the Sayyed al-Shouhadaa' compound in Beirut's southern suburb, Nasrallah regretted that Britain is prepared to simply change its judicial system to suit Israel and its interests.
"The same applies to the United States of America," Nasrallah said.
"While it claims to carry the slogans of freedom, democracy and freedom of expression and speech in the world; the US Congress almost unanimously passes a law that penalizes owners of satellites that rent out airspace to some Arab satellite channels, just because these Arab satellite channels tell the Arab peoples the truth and the facts about occupation, aggression and the US project in the region," he said.
"They toy with the law according to their whims and moods," he added.
Sayyed Nasrallah concluded his speech by recalling that the aim of the prophets, sacrifices, rules, and religions is to achieve the best possible life conditions for people within their security, stability, freedom, joy, development, education, luxury, and their religious and moral perfection.
"Therefore, there is a set of rules that preserves people's lives and life style, whether it is in a Muslim government or a non-Muslim government, for these kinds of rules aim at the same target of the prophets and their movements, and all the good ones throughout history, so that it would be respected and taken into consideration because it is of people's benefits, and this is the Islamic law.
