"Lebanon's new cabinet has agreed on a policy statement that acknowledges Hezbollah's right to use its weapons against Israel, despite disagreement by some members of the ruling majority.... the new statement will retain the same clause approved by the previous cabinet as concerns the arsenal of Hezbollah... The clause states the right of "Lebanon, its government, its people, its army and its resistance" to liberate all Lebanese territory....
