Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah warned on Tuesday that the Resistance party would not stand silent if the Israeli enemy attacked the Lebanese Army in the future, pledging that the Israeli hand that attacks the national army would be cut off.
Sayyed Nasrallah was speaking through a large TV screen at Al-Raya stadium in Beirutâs southern suburb, during the ceremony held by Hezbollah to mark the fourth anniversary of the Divine Victory, a few hours after an Israeli aggression against the Lebanese Army.
"I say honestly, that in any place where the Lebanese army will be assaulted and there's a presence for the resistance, and it is capable, the resistance will not stand silent, or quiet or restrained," Sayyed Nasrallah told crows of people who took part in the ceremony.
According to Sayyed Nasrallah, the Israeli aggression against Lebanon, its land, and its sovereignty never ceased, but continues in various ways. âIt has manifested itself in no less than 7,000 Israeli violations of Lebanese sovereignty since August 14, 2006, over which the world prefers not to open its mouth. These violations occur in the air, land, and sea, and what we saw today was just another expression of this,â his eminence said, adding that what happened on Tuesday only proves that.
Addressing the developments in the South, Sayyed Nasrallah paid tribute to the Lebanese Army which ended the day with two martyrs who fell while defending their land and their country. "The Lebanese army did what it was asked to do, and that is to sacrifice soldiers. Even the Lebanese media sacrificed one of its own,â his eminence said.
Hezbollah Secretary General, meanwhile, emphasized that the Resistance was on highest alert during the day, explaining that Hezbollah leadership has notified the Lebanese military since the first moments of the conflict that it is prepared to stand by its side. âI was personally in contact with the commanders in the area, and I asked them not to act before receiving a direct order. We announced that we would not initiate any activity as long as we did not receive authorization from the highest command of the Lebanese army. We contacted the army's commander and explained that we were ready to take action if they ask us to. We did what was needed in order to protect our sacred land,â Sayyed Nasrallah said. âIt was wise to stand behind the army, but we told the army's commander: The Resistance is at your disposal.â
Sayyed Nasrallah noted that the Lebanese message upon the clashes was very clear: âLebanon, the whole of Lebanon, will not tolerate any violation of even one hand span of its sacred land.â According to his eminence, the formula 'the army, the people and the Resistance' was baptized in blood.
Yet, Sayyed Nasrallah vowed that the scenario wouldnât be the same in the future in case the Israeli enemy repeated its mistake. "From now on, if the army is attacked in any area where the resistance has a presence or a say, the resistance will not stand by idly,â Hezbollah Secretary General pledged. âWe will cut off the Israeli hand that reaches out to (attack) the Lebanese army,â his eminence went on to say.
Sayyed Nasrallah concluded his speech by stressing that âthere is a place for worrisome over a possible war on Lebanon,â but reassured the Lebanese that until this day there are no indications of a war on Lebanon, ruling out such a war in the imminent future. âLet Israel remain misinformed and let it believe what it wants, there are things which we reveal for the sake of protecting the country and there are things which we don't reveal also for the sake of protecting the country,â Sayyed Nasrallah said, noting that Hezbollah policy of "constructive ambiguity" prevents him from revealing what the Resistance has in store regarding "aerial deterrence" in case of any future war with the Zionist entity.
