Samir Quntar was a Lebanese prison held for one of the longest terms and was freed in the prisoner exchange between Hizbollah and the Zionist regime. He said: “I will continue to resist until the occupied territories are completely freed and Israel is destroyed.”

 The Saudi Arabian newspaper ‘Akaz narrated that Samir Quntar spent 30 years of his youth in Israeli prisons and wants to return to the occupied territories saying that these lands can only be freed through resistance.

 Quntar said that the years he spent in prison were very difficult but also very special. He said that he could not describe the tortures and being away from his hometown in only a ten minute span though.

 He continued to say: “After these long years I have finally returned to my family and countrymen. I thank Allah that everything is good. The amazing welcoming of the Lebanese people gave me the feeling that there are people who can heal my pains”

 He said: “When all Lebanese are unanimous about the role that the resistance has to play in freeing the occupied territories all other issues will become secondary and will be solved easily.”

 Samir Quntar added: “Lebanon’s defense strategy cannot put the issue of freeing the occupied lands aside. Freeing these lands can only happen through resistance.”
