“The Most Beautiful Promise” Is Fulfilled, People Return Home with Dignity

Siraj Kobeissy

July 12, 2006... Hizbullah resistance fighters kidnapped two "Israeli" soldiers... Two days later, the Zionist entity declared war on Lebanon.

Thousands of civilians martyred, while thousands others lost their houses to the vicious attacks.

"For the sake of the resistance," you would hear the people of Lebanon say.

Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah vowed that all demolished houses, especially in the Beirut southern suburb, will be "rebuilt", even more beautiful than they were.

May 24, 2007 was the launch of WAAD (Promise) Project, whose main goal was to rebuild what the enemy razed in the Beirut southern suburb.

5 years later, all buildings were standing tall with bride; WAAD had fulfilled its promise indeed, and its project was finalized. At a ceremony dubbed "The Most Beautiful Promise", the project was officially handed to its rightful owners.

268 buildings, including 4000 residential apartments and around 1700 shops, were rebuilt at different stages.

Media representative at the WAAD project, Rajaa al-Husseini, told moqawama.org that the buildings were finalized in February (2012). However; WAAD also managed to rebuild the infrastructure and roads surrounding all "rebuilt" facilities, that it why they hadn't been concluded until now, she added.
To stress the quality and accuracy in WAAD's work, al-Husseini asserted that all rebuilt firms have a 1 year warrantee, that WAAD would take responsibility to amend any flaw in the building.

Ahmad Qaik, a resident at the rebuilt "Shurah" building in the suburb's area, renowned formerly as the "security square", expressed gratitude to WAAD for restoring the area's normal life.
"It was a blessing from Allah Almighty that people returned to their homes quickly," he stated in an interview with moqawama.org.

"Hizbullah, and the WAAD Project were trustworthy and they held the responsibility of what some countries are unable to fulfill. The people and owners of these buildings thank the WAAD Project, and thank Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, for this divine achievement," he went on to say.

Men, women, children, and elderly took part in the finalizing ceremony.

Also present at the event were official Lebanese and foreign representatives from different parties, who came to take part in the historic moment.

Among the figures was Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc Member Ali Fayyad, who asserted the success of WAAD in reinstating what "Israel" crushed.

"I think that the WAAD Project has completely succeeded in rebuilding all ruins destroyed by the "Israelis". I think this has great indications because Resistance Leader Sayyed Nasrallah promised our people that he will build it more beautiful, and he fulfilled his promise," MP Fayyad noted.

"This is one of the resistance's historic achievements, and we will remain in the service of our people, to help them progress," he further told moqawama.org.

"Thanks for the WAAD Project, the people will appreciate what Hizbullah and the Islamic Republic in Iran did to help rebuild their homes and normal life," MP Fayyad reiterated.

Flags were waved and slogans were bannered as resistance chants filled the air.

General Director of WAAD Project, Engineer Hassan Jeshi, on his part spoke to the crowd to express gratitude for their cooperation and patience throughout the tough task to reconstruct semi-demolished and totally-demolished buildings.

The people hailed the achievement, and praised the project's "globally" unprecedented success.

There is always a stamp that ratifies a project or agreement, and with the appearance of Hizbullah Secretary General His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the WAAD Project was sealed.

Sayyed Nasrallah: The Time has Come When We Remain and They Disappear
With his words of glory, he announced the conclusion of the project, as he called it, "The triumph of steadfastness", and praised all efforts by organizers and residents, who made this accomplishment possible.

Almost six years after the "divine victory", the "divine promise" prevails with a spirit of resistance to even spiritually and morally defeat the "Israeli" enemy.

The people of Lebanon refuse to surrender and accept any trounce. They remain invincible in their land and homes, to prove to themselves and the world; they are not afraid to prove their loyalty to their country; Lebanon.
