Lebanese Information Minister Tareq Mitri criticized on Monday that one of the reasons for Arab weakness in resistance against Israel is that they are divided, local TL television reported.
"This division is increasing in the balance of power between Israel and the Palestinian resistance," Mitri was quoted in an interview with the TV channel.
He, however, ruled out the possibility of implementing UN Resolution 1860 without the approval of Hamas movement.
The Resolution 1860 calls for a ceasefire in Gaza following a devastating Israeli operation which has killed over 900 people and wounded 4000 others since the beginning of the Israeli offensive on Gaza on Dec. 27, 2008.
Meanwhile, "there is a Lebanese consensus between all parties to avoid Lebanon to become a base for launching rockets" on Israel, Mitri added.
Last Thursday, three Katyusha rockets were fired from southern Lebanon into northern Israel, prompting an Israeli response by shelling back. Radical Palestinian factions were accused of being behind the attack.
