Delivering a televised speech in a celebration marking the thirtieth anniversary of founding the Imam Mahdi (as) Scouts in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital, Seyed Hasan Nasrallah addressed the Israelis, urging them to realize that they were fighting a lost battle unable to deter the Resistance capabilities, Almanar TV reported on Friday.
He warned the Israeli regime on Friday that any act of war against Lebanon would lead to displacement of 'million' of Israelis. “You are admitting in your drills that you have a defeated army by saying that the resistance is able to reach all the areas where the exercises are taking place,” he said, stressing that the recent Zionist threats will have no effect on Hezbollah.
Addressing the Israeli authorities, Nasrallah said, “if you are threatening to deport a million and a half Lebanese, the Resistance will displace millions of Zionists; we are not afraid of your war or your threats.”
Nasrallah praised all people who expressed their solidarity with Hezbollah, and refuted rumors on the party's intention to form brigades or to declare the popular mobilization, stressing that the battle of Arsal will make the task of Lebanese army easier and will ease its burdens.
Stressing that Hezbollah did not want to approach the town of Arsal, and that the battle would continue until the liberation of the barrens, the Hezbollah leader said he would not talk about the time for the completion of the battle.
“We launched the battle of Arsal barrens and we are not bound to a specific time, but we are interested in accomplishing the goal with the least human casualties possible. We are not in a rush,” he elaborated.
Elsewhere in his remarks he reffered to ISIL takfiri group and related media reports. He expressed surprise over media reports published after the Saudi terrorist suicide bombings to claim that Iran, Syria or Hezbollah have created ISIL and support it since its emergence.
Recalling the history of ISIL which is the Iraqi branch of al-Qaeda terrorist group, Nasrallah denied the claims over Iran’s support for ISIL as 'senseless and very ridiculous.'
