Samir Al-Quntar: "When it comes to the collaborators, there is no room for values or anything. I am the son of the Islamic resistance, and I say, loud and clear, in its name, that the great mistake committed by the Islamic resistance is its lenient treatment of collaborators.

Interviewer: "How come Israel has the right to possess nuclear weapons, while Iran does not? The answer is always vague…"
Bernard Kouchner: "[Israel] does not have the right to possess nuclear weapons, and nobody has announced officially that Israel possesses such weapons. In addition, some other countries, like Pakistan, have not officially declared this. In theory, the NPT should prevent any signatory country from producing a nuclear weapon. This is monitored by the IAEA, which has headquarters in Vienna."
