Iran Press/Middle East: During a ceremony held by Hezbollah to mark International Quds Day in Dahiyeh on Friday, Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah acknowledged that Hezbollah has the weapons but do not produce them. However, he said Hezbollah may consider setting up such factories if Washington continues to use the talks on border demarcation to discuss the resistance capabilities since it is Lebanon’s right to defend itself.
He warned that Hezbollah will respond to any Israeli aggression on any resistance target in Lebanon quickly, directly and strongly, Al-Manar TV reported.
Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah said that ‘Israel’ fears the resistance in Lebanon and that Israeli officials talk about resistance deterrence and capabilities, pointing out that Hezbollah has “accurate missiles that can reach all the targets required in ‘Israel’ and that are able to change the face of the region.
Iran is strong so there is no war
Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah detailed on reasons why the possibility of an upcoming war against Iran was remote. “One reason that there’s no war is that Iran is strong, otherwise the war could have been launched. The other reason is that the CIA knows that a war on Iran will set the region on fire and won’t stop behind its borders.”
“The whole region will ignite and the US troops and interests will exterminate if a war on Iran was launched,” Hezbollah leader warned.
A war on Iran will make ‘Israel’ and the Al-e-Saud family pay the price, Nasrallah indicated, wondering how Saudi Arabia, which failed and was defeated in Yemen, would be able to wage war on Iran.
“Trump fears own interests and is only after an economic war against Iran and other states,” he went on to say.
While Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah hailed the balanced Iraqi stance in the emergency summit that convened Arab leaders in the Saudi city of Mecca overnight Thursday, he rejected and condemned the Lebanese delegation participation in the summit, saying the Lebanese official stance was inconsistent with the dissociation item in the ministerial statement and violated it.
US attempts to control Iraq failed
“The US attempts to control Iraq have failed, the Iraqi stance from regional issues is totally different and uncontrolled,” he said. “Iraq today returned to its regional role and has a capable, struggling and influential people in the region’s issues,” he said.
Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah gave the so-called Deal of the Century the lion's share in his speech, assuring that the US was mistaken by betting on regional people's weariness to impose the deal. “The main challenge today in front of Palestine and Al-Quds is the deal of the century, or Donald Trump’s deal, and it’s our duty to confront it,” Hezbollah leader said.
“We have a deep hope that we, the people of this region, can stop the ‘crime of the century’,” he said, indicating that the US administration and ‘Israel’ are working day and night with Arab regimes to realize the deal.
Syria remained pro-resistance
The US, he said, was able to “contain the Arab Spring popular protests and derail it towards a wrong way, however, Syria overcame the scheme of destroying it, and it remained pro-resistance.”
“Yemen, which is an essential part of the resistance axis, rejects the deal of the century and protests in support of Al-Quds,” Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah said. “American tools in the region are unable to protect themselves and some regimes are concerned of implementing the deal of the century,” he said, pointing that the three summits in Mecca were a proof of the Saudi failure and weakness.
He said the Zionist entity and the US were no longer as strong as before. “‘Israel’ fears missiles from Lebanon, Gaza, Syria and claims the existence of rockets in Iraq,” he said, adding there’s no leadership in ‘Israel’ and total reliance on US support. However, he said the US was no longer the same as before 20 years after it sent its troops to the region and came out of it defeated.
Bahraini people innocent of Deal of the Century
“Throughout 40 years, Al-Quds enemies bet that this day will be forgotten, but they were mistaken,” he said. “We have been commemorating the week of Al-Quds in many cities of the world. Al-Quds Day protests in Bahrain confirm that the Bahraini people and scholars are innocent of the Deal of the Century’s summit,” Nasrallah said.
“Al-Quds rallies in Iran serve as a message to the US and regional regimes,” he said, adding that Trump will wait for a long time before receiving a phone call from Iran.
The ceremony marking Al-Quds day, with its main theme “Towards Al-Quds”, was held in Beirut’s southern suburb of Dahiyeh on Friday, with a huge crowd gathering and participating. 101/211/201
