In a powerful address on the eve of the holy month of Muharram, Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of Lebanon's Hezbollah, condemned the Israeli army as "the most morally corrupt army in the world." He emphasized Hezbollah's unwavering support for the oppressed citizens of Gaza and vowed to continue this support until the Palestinian state is liberated.
RT News agency reported Nasrallah's statements, highlighting the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza. He criticized the blockade that has prevented aid from reaching the Gaza Strip for several months, resulting in what he described as a disaster. Nasrallah questioned the passivity of the international community, particularly Arab and Islamic countries, in the face of Gaza's suffering.
"Every sane Muslim asks themselves where the Arab and Islamic countries are. Can they truly do nothing to save the people of Palestine, especially in Gaza?" Nasrallah stated. He called on these nations to take more decisive action to alleviate the plight of Palestinians.
Nasrallah reaffirmed Hezbollah's commitment to the Palestinian cause, stating, "We believe it is our duty to support the Palestinian nation and the liberation of Quds. Our people are martyred every day in this cause, and we are proud of it. We will continue this path until our goals are met."
He also praised the efforts of other regional supporters, including Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, and Iran, for their solidarity with Gaza. He contrasted their actions with those of other Arab and Islamic countries, which he criticized for their inaction and complicity in Gaza's suffering.
"Every time one of us is martyred or threatened with war, we do not retreat. Instead, we become stronger in our beliefs and positions," Nasrallah declared, underscoring the resilience and determination of Hezbollah and its allies.
The speech also served to rally Hezbollah's supporters and reaffirm the organization's commitment to its goals despite external threats and challenges. Nasrallah's remarks come at a time of heightened tensions and underscore the continuing volatility in the region.
