Hassan Nasrallah: The United States is the first threat to the people of the region; The Israeli enemy is just an American tool

 Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah emphasized today that the United States is the first threat to all the peoples of the region and that the Israeli enemy is just an American tool.

Nasrallah indicated that the response to the American crime of assassinating Lieutenant-General Qassem Soleimani, commander of the Quds Force and his companions, is not a single process but rather a long path that must lead to the end of the American military presence in the region.

In a speech in remembrance of  the one- week martyrdom of Lieutenant General Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, Deputy Chairman of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Unit and their companions, Mr. Nasrallah said that ISIS was an American creation and was the greatest threat to the region and its defeat in Iraq helped defeat it in Syria.

“If ISIS wasn’t defeated in Iraq, it would have threatened all the countries of the region” Nasrallah said, “Defeating ISIS in Iraq has  helped defeat it in Syria”.

Mr. Nasrallah pointed out that every massacre carried out by the terrorist organization ISIS in every mosque and church should be marked “Made in America” because “ISIS” is America’s tool which it uses to sow sedition and create wars in the region.

Mr. Nasrallah affirmed that striking the American base in Iraq was a strong blow to the prestige of the United States, noting with what the resistance is possessed of today in terms of deterrence, capabilities, expertise and development ,it has become an existential threat to “Israel”.

After the year 2000, the resistance turned into a force that had  the ability and deterrence to cut off the hand of the Israeli enemy from Lebanon, and since that time the qualitative development of the resistance  began, Nasrallah added.

Mr. Nasrallah pointed out that the martyr Soleimani supported many countries in the region in confronting global arrogance and he was the best one who carried the banner of resistance in the region. He noted that one of the most important indications and repercussions of this martyrdom is that it restored the true and clear image of the United States to the peoples and countries of the region as the first enemy and the symbol of tyranny and arrogance in the world.
