The following are excerpts from an interview with Lebanese Politician 'Ali Trabulsi, which aired on Al-Manar TV on June 5, 2005
Trabulsi: I want to say something to all our brothers in South Lebanon: I vote "Yes" for the resistance (i.e. Hizbullah). I have written it with the blood of my ten fingers.

Trabulsi: I hope that no one will tight-fisted with his blood for the sake of the resistance, because the resistance has sacrificed blood in defense of our land, our people, and our society.
