Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, has said he does "not regret" the capture of two Israeli soldiers that led to Israel's offensive against Lebanon.
"The capture was exploited [by the Israelis] for the timing of the war ... but we think it hastened a war that was going to happen anyway and this was to our advantage and the advantage of Lebanon," Nasrallah said in an interview with the Lebanese daily newspaper As-Safir, published on Tuesday.
"I say we did not make a mistake in judgment. Our calculations were correct and we do not regret it."
