Over Killing Resistance Members
Hezbollah Lashes Out at Zionist Regime
BEIRUT (Dispatches) – Head of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has lashed out at Tel Aviv regime for the recent killing of a number of its members, saying the Middle East region is suffering from "a cancerous growth called Israel.”
Hezbollah Secretary General Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah made the remarks on Friday during a speech about the Zionist attack on the Syrian Golan town of Quneitra on January 18.
He described the Zionist regime as a "trauma” and a "bacterium of corruption” which has been plaguing the whole region since 1948.
He recapped crimes against humanity committed by the Israeli regime in the region, referring to the Tel Aviv’s brutalities against Palestinians and Syrians.
"Israel has in recent years resorted to the same arrogant practices it had adopted decades ago. It has carried out a bloody campaign against Gaza and violated the most basic of Palestinian rights,” Hezbollah leader added.
Nasrallah further referred to the role of Israel in Syria and the regime’s support for the Takfiri militants operating against the Syrian government, saying, "In Syria, Israel has been backing the extremist groups and shelling government’s positions under various excuses. In Lebanon, it does not recognize resolution 1701 and has committed thousands of violations against its sovereignty.”
He emphasized that "Israel believes that it can threaten all armies and governments in the region whenever it pleases and without being deterred.”
Nasrallah also referred to the Arab countries’ inaction toward the crimes committed by the Tel Aviv regime, saying, "Israel is taking advantage of the divisions in the region and the complete absence of the stances by the Arab countries, especially the so-called Arab League.”
"There is no such thing as an Arab League or an independent Arab stance when it comes to Israel. Arab positions and arms are available when it comes to Yemen, Iraq, and Syria,” he said.
Referring to the killing of the members of the resistance movement in Quneitra, on the Syrian section of Golan Heights, Nasrallah said, "Our brothers in Quneitra were killed in a clear assassination, in a decision taken by Israel.”
"Israel has not yet claimed responsibility for the airstrike believing that Hezbollah is weak and would disregard the attack,” he added.
Nasrallah also took Israel to task for supporting Takfiri militants in Syria, including the al-Qaeda linked al-Nusra Front, saying, "Thousands of members of al-Nusra Front are present along the border with Israel in the occupied Golan Heights.”
The Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "is not at all concerned about the presence of al-Nusra on Israel's border,” the Hezbollah leader said, adding, "Israel, however, felt threatened by six Hezbollah members and an Iranian general passing through Quneitra.”
