Alwaght- Hezbollah leader says the resistance front will be victorious while ISIS and other terrorist groups in Syria are facing imminent defeat and this has worried the Israeli regime's premier.
Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah made the remarks in a televised speech on Saturday during a ceremony Hezbollah held commemorating the birthday of Sayyeda Fatima Al-Zahra SA, daughter of Prophet Muhammad PBUH which marks the International Muslim Women's Day.
He started his speech by saluting all the strong women who are bearing all the difficulties in this sensitive period, specifically the wives, mothers and daughters of resistance fighters and martyrs.
The Hezbollah leader noted that the days of ISIS, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, formerly known as the al-Nusra Front, and other terrorist groups fighting to topple the legitimate Syrian government are numbered as Syrian army forces continue to achieve victories across the country.
Even those Arab and Western countries that once supported these terror outfits are now fighting them, Sayyed Nasrallah pointed out.
The Hezbollah leader pointed out that Israeli regime's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had recently met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow to express his deep concern over the likely collapse of ISIS in Syria since such a development would mark a major victory of the resistance front in the West Asia region. Sayyed Nasrallah added that the defeat of the ISIS terrorist group in Syria would be tantamount to the fall of Netanyahu himself.
Money spent in Syria cold stop hunger in Somalia
“Six years have passed on the Syrian war,” Sayyed Nasrallah noted, adding that “all those who betted on taking control over Syria in a couple of months were disappointed and defeated… The Billions that Arab countries paid for the war in Syria could’ve ended poverty in the Arab world. It could’ve stopped the hunger in Somalia, educated the illiterate and solved many problems in the Arab world.”
The Hezbollah leader recalled that he had addressed Al-Qaeda since the beginning of the Syrian crisis and called them to retreat from fighting.
“I have told them that you were dragged to fight in Syria to serve American and Israeli objectives, and they will get rid of you after that. You are only firewood for them. However, their ignorance did not give them the chance to do so. They thought they could use America and Turkey to establish their state. ISIS is almost over in Iraq, and it has no military or political future in Syria. The suicide bombings are but evidence to this strategic and military failure, and this is revenge not fighting. This is the future of ISIS and Al-Nusra Front… and here they are being bombarded by the US, Turkey and Russia.”
Plot to take over Syria has failed
“Today they have realized that America is a hypocrite… but Israel is still not recognizing this defeat, as it interferes, claiming that it is targeting spots for Hezbollah, as it did a couple of days ago. Today this arrogant plot to take control over Syria had failed, and Syria triumphed but is still awaiting its decisive victory. It is only a matter of time until ISIS, Al-Nusra, and all the Takfiri factions will cease to exist.”
Addressing the Takfiris, Sayyed Nasrallah said: “For all those fighting in the ranks of the enemy in Syria, I tell you that this project is over".
UN Succumbed to Israeli, US pressure
Elsewhere in his remarks, Sayyed Nasrallah referred to the recent report by United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) which documented Israeli regime crimes against Palestinians and accusing it of apartheid. He noted that this provoked the US and the Israeli regime to pile pressure on the UN and its secretary general to withdraw the report.
“The former secretary general submitted to the pressure in the past and withdrew a report related to the Saudi crimes in Yemen. However, ESCWA Executive Secretary Rima Khalaf refused to withdraw the report and resigned… First, we have always known that this organization is under the control of the US, therefore it is too weak to defend our rights, and this is why we can never rely on its decisions to restore our occupied lands. Second, the stance of this Arab lady who sacrificed her position and job, and will have to bear the consequences of her decision in the future is worth offering my gratitude, and the gratitude of the resistance fighters and all the honorable people the world,” he noted.
The Hezbollah leader stressed that “the Palestinians have portrayed ongoing firmness and resistance against this apartheid regime, as we saw great participation in the funeral of martyr Bassel Al-A’raj. We send our condolences to the family and relatives of this great martyr.”
