The Secretary General of Hezbollah, His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, affirmed that Quds Day is a day of solidarity for the honorable people of the world with Palestine, Jerusalem and the oppressed people there.
Sayyed Nasrallah’s words came at the central celebration organized by Hezbollah to commemorate the International Quds Day in the Sayyid al-Shuhada (PBUH) complex in the southern suburbs of Beirut, where Sayyed Nasrallah thanked the attendees for participating in the occasion.
Sayyed Nasrallah said: “I remember the martyrdom of the martyr Imam Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr and his sister Bint al-Huda,” and continued: “Among the occasions is the April 1996 aggression and the heroic steadfastness of the resistance, the people, and the army, and the great victory by imposing the rules of engagement, which changed the equations and laid the foundations for the victory of 2000.”
On Quds Day, Sayyed Nasrallah addressed “a message of cooperation and support to the Palestinian people and that you are not alone.” He pointed out that “solidarity on International Quds Day sends a message to the enemy that increases its anxiety and terror. Today we celebrate with confidence and we feel safe, strong and proud, but yesterday the Israeli entity declared its alertness.” on all fronts and sent an empty and worthless threat to all surrounding countries”.
Sayyed Nasrallah referred to major developments that took place in the past year at the international level, at the regional level, and at the level of the Palestinian people, pointing out that “the enemy declared its alert on all fronts and was feeling fear and anxiety, while the axis of resistance was reassured.”
He said, “Internationally, American power has retreated and is no longer as strong as it was in the past years and decades. The first witness to America’s decline is that it was forced to retreat in Venezuela following its economic and political blockade, and the second witness is its defeat in Afghanistan. The earthquake in Afghanistan led to the conviction that stability in the region does not stop.” On the relationship with the United States, but rather consensus and dialogue that constitute the guarantee.
Sayyed Nasrallah revealed that “Gulf officials told us that they are convinced that America cannot be absolutely relied upon to protect a regime or a country, and the West Asia region is no longer a priority for the United States, and there are other priorities that preoccupy it, such as the war with Russia and the confrontation with China.”
Sayyed Nasrallah continued, “The Americans are telling the Israelis that our priority is in Ukraine and our priority is in Taiwan, and this relieves Iran and relieves the Arabs.” And the result is negative for the Israeli entity.”
Sayyed Nasrallah pointed out that “normalization took place at the request of the Americans and not as some Zionist officials lie, and the bet was during the past years on the collapse of every environment in which there is resistance, and this is all a failure.”
On Yemen, Sayyed Nasrallah said: “Yemen, with whom we have been with since the first day, is witnessing a positive development, and all the positive atmosphere comes from Yemen and Saudi Arabia, which was a party to the war, as well as the UAE… and this makes us happy.” He said, “The courageous and wise leadership embodied in the person of Sayyid Abd al-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, may God protect him, has been talking regarding defending Yemen since day one.”
And he continued: “The one who must provide answers to the people is the one who proposed great and great goals and was unable to achieve any of them, neither in the region nor in Yemen,” saying: “We place great hopes and great bets on the Iraqi people, and if they are added to the efforts of the axis of resistance, they will achieve a great change.” .
Sayyed Nasrallah commended Algeria’s return to playing a major role in the Palestinian cause and its expulsion of the Israeli delegation from the African summit, saying: “The bet on an American war supported by Israel and the Gulf once morest Iran has fallen.”
He said, “The Iranian-Saudi agreement has great effects on the region and will slow down the path of normalization, and this was helped by the foolish performance of this corrupt and criminal Israeli government.”
Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that “the real support for the resistance is Iran under the leadership of the Grand Ayatollah, His Eminence Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei, and therefore the blockade and the formation of axes once morest it,” pointing out that “the judicial amendments in the enemy entity are a war of annihilation launched by Netanyahu without blood and might lead to blood.” It almost reached the blood had it not been for the intervention of the United States.”
And Sayyed Nasrallah continued: “The division spread throughout the entity at the party level, and reached business and investment men, and reached the army and its regular and reserve units, and it is a division that is built on it,” noting that “there is a dangerous and massive decline in the fighting spirit and sacrifice for the sake of the entity, and all attempts to restore confidence in the entity have failed.” He said: “What is happening in the West Bank and Jerusalem in terms of armed resistance and the presence of lone lions, men, women, elderly, youth and children provide the strongest picture of the incubating environment for the resistance.”
Regarding the recent events in the south, Sayyed Nasrallah said: “What recently happened in southern Lebanon was an important and major event in view of the situation since 2006. The battle with the enemy is better, and it definitely worries the enemy.” “The policy of silence may worry the friend, but with regard to the concern of the friend, he must consider that it is part of his sacrifices in the battle, and the enemy must remain anxious and terrified. No one should provide reassurance to the enemy while he is the one who transgresses.”
Sayyed Nasrallah added, “Why should we give reassurance to the enemy, and this is what establishes the balance of deterrence and the rules of engagement that protected Lebanon with Netanyahu’s recognition of concession and giving rights to oil and gas? The enemy that threatens the Lebanese and bombs Syria must remain worried and terrified.. and the balance of deterrence is what made The Israeli response is limited and absurd. Adding: “The most important lie told by Netanyahu is that they bombed the infrastructure of Hezbollah and the “Hamas” movement, and this is a clear lie, and all the media filmed the places that were bombed while they were open places. The Zionist enemy did not bomb any Hezbollah infrastructure, but only bombed banana orchards.”
Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that “all the enemy’s threats increase our insistence on preserving deterrence equations in the face of any attacks on Lebanon, and any attack or security action in Lebanon we will respond to in an appropriate manner and without hesitation.”
With regard to Syria, Sayyed Nasrallah said: “Why do you not respond to the Israeli aggressions? This matter is well thought out by the Syrian leadership.” The Israeli forces in Syria by armed groups along the front with the Syrian Arab Army.
Sayyed Nasrallah pointed out that “the Syrian position on the Israeli attacks may change at any time, and the enemy’s miscalculations may show results at any moment, and what happened last week at the level of marches in southern Syria is an indication of a possible change in the Syrian position.”
Sayyed Nasrallah said: “The West Bank is the “Shield of Jerusalem” with its patience, steadfastness, resistance and great endurance. Support for the West Bank is not only moral and political support, but financial support, and we must all work for it, and everyone who can deliver weapons to the West Bank must do so and this It is everyone’s responsibility, and the West Bank must be supported with everything that leads to making it steadfast, rising, and a prelude to liberation.”
Sayyed Nasrallah warned the enemy, saying: “Your calculations and steps or some of your emotions or foolish actions in Jerusalem, the West Bank, Gaza, Lebanon or Syria may drag the region into a major war.” And he indicated that “the enemy divides the arenas and singles out the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and says that there are rules of engagement. I say to the enemy this game is dangerous, not in Al-Aqsa Mosque, not in the Church of the Resurrection, not in Gaza, not in Syria, not in Lebanon, and it is cowardly than attacking Iran.”
Sayyed Nasrallah concluded: “We tell the Israeli to beware, and to the Americans who are preoccupied with the Russians and the Chinese. We tell him to beware, for the sanctities are a red line and the Palestinian people are a red line.” And he continued: “From the southern suburbs of Beirut, from Lebanon, from the country that made its victory with the sweat of its brow, we declare once more with Imam Khomeini, Imam Khamenei, and all Muslim and Christian leaders that we are committed to the cause and that Palestine is our cause and the sanctities are all our sanctities.”
