Sayyed Nasrallah: Saudi Will Be Dealt Severe Blow in Yemen

On Oct 9, 2015

Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah said Saudi Arabia will be dealt a severe, historic blow in Yemen, stressing that victory was definite for the Yemeni people.

In an interview with the Iranian TV, Al-Ahvaz, on Thursday, Sayyed Nasrallah said Saudi Arabia destroyed Yemen and abolished its unity and development, according to al-Manar Website.

“It’s depriving the Yemenis from their own natural wealth so that they’d remain poor and needy to Saudi Arabia. It has also been paying bribes and trying to impose its doctrine on the Yemenis forcefully,” his eminence said.

“I’m still confident that Saudi Arabia will be dealt a severe blow in Yemen and victory will be achieved there, but Allah will decide how and when would that happen,” the S.G. added.

Rebuffing lies about the dependency of the Yemeni revolution on Iran, Sayyed Nasrallah said: “Saudi Arabia wants others to believe that the Yemeni revolution is dependent on the Islamic Republic. This is a big and unfair lie.”

On Bahrain, he said the battle of the Bahraini people was a ‘historic’ one, “and according to the course of events, I believe it’s the battle of existence.”

Talking about Syria, Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that Syria constituted a significant key factor in the axis of resistance and was a big factor in disrupting the US projects, the reason why they wanted to hit and destroy it.

His eminence hailed the steadfastness of the Syrians, saying it formed the basis for any help and solidarity from allies and friends.

“Facts began to unfold before the Syrian people eyes that what’s needed wasn’t ‘democracy’ but rather was ISIL’s savage and defamed model” that’s committing the most horrible crimes against people in the region, Sayyed Nasrallah said.

“We’ve overcome the danger line in Syria in the light of internal, regional and international developments and the Syrian issue will take a new path. There’s a possibility that a serious political solution will be considered because the world has begun to think in a more realistic way,” his eminence pointed out.

“Billions of dollars have been spent so far for the destruction of Syria in addition to the hundreds of tons of weapons and tens of thousands of fighters who were brought from countries around the world down to the sectarian incitement. The aim was to topple Syria and control it.”

Sayyed Nasrallah was confident that tyrants would be defeated if everybody took responsibility. “If we all shoulder our responsibilities, we’ll be able to defeat hegemonies, tyrants and plunderers, restore our decision, destiny and resources, and build our region and country. We’re hopeful.”

Speaking on the Islamic Republic of Iran and its constructive role in the region, Sayyed Nasrallah said; “The Islamic Republic is a hub of security, stability, will, civilization and popular sovereignty. It’s preserving its place in the regional and international equation.”

“If the Islamic republic wasn’t there, where would have countries and peoples of the region been? We’re talking out of facts and our generation is witnessing it.”

The S.G. also said the Islamic Revolution was a great blessing to the Iranian people and Muslims in general, but the problem was that there are those who are ignorant and unthankful.
