But he emphasized that Hezbollah's full entry into war with Israel will be determined based on developing events in Gaza, and whether Israel halts its attacks on the Palestinian people. Shelling on the Israel-Lebanese border was reportedly ongoing through and by the end of the speech in Beirut (Nasrallah addressed his top officers via remote feed from a secure location). Some highlights from Nasrallah's speech... All "Options" on the table "I assure you all options are open on the southern front. They can be adopted anytime," he said. "I assure you it will not be the end, this is not sufficient." "If you wish to steer away from a regional war, you must end the war on Gaza. This front will develop according to developments in Gaza." "If Israel strikes Lebanon it will be the most foolish act in all of Israel's existence." US sent message to Hezbollah, warning its ships & planes will attack Nasrallah related that Hezbollah was warned soon after Oct.7 that US ships and war planes positioned in the Mediterranean would bombard southern Lebanon if Hezbollah fighters escalate attacks on Israel. But Nasrallah said, "We will continue to infiltrate" and that Hezbollah's calculus will be "a civilian for a civilian" - meaning that attacks from southern Lebanon will be determined based on the intensity of Israel's attacks on Palestinians. On prospect of major regional war "To the Americans I say, focusing your threats on Hezbollah and the region are pointless," Nasrallah said. The US said it "would not only attack Lebanon but will attack Iran." "Your fleets in the Mediterranean do not and will not cause us to fear. We have prepared for your fleet what it takes. You Americans remember your defeats from Lebanon (early 80s), Iraq, and Afghanistan... your humiliating retreat from Afghanistan. He praised the recent attacks by Iraqi Shia militias against US based in the region. "If an all out war erupts your fleet will be no good, your warplanes will be pointless, you will pay a heavy price." Syrian Girl 🇸🇾🎗 @Partisangirl Do not expect a direct declaration of war by Nasrallah. That is not his style. He wants no one in Lebanon to blame him when the war escalates But it will escalate, and Hezbollah will go to the next stage. Syrian Girl 🇸🇾🎗 @Partisangirl · He essentially declared war. He said Hezbollah has already declared war on October 8th and that operations will escalate Syrian Girl 🇸🇾🎗 @Partisangirl He also basically threatened oil fields and US bases Poster Comment: Zionists were all over threatening Hezbollah with American military might. That military no longer exists John Mearshimer said Hassan Nasrallah gives the most informative speeches Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
