Hezbollah Threatens Israel With "Surprise" That Will Change the Region

On the anniversary of the "Divine Victory" celebrations where Hezbollah neighborhoods were blown to bits in Beirut, radical leader Hassan Nasrallah warned Israel of larger surprises.

"If you, the Zionists, are considering attacking Lebanon, I am reserving a surprise for you that will change the fate of the war and the region," Nasrallah said in a televised speech at a mass rally in his stronghold in the Beirut southern suburb of Sfeir.

"By saying this, I and the resistance realize the responsibility we are taking on," he added during the hour-long address that capped celebrations by his militant group commemorating its "divine victory" over Israel.

Nasrallah said that renewed conflict would prove costly to Israel and thanked those that had stood by his group in its war against the Jewish state and the United States.

"God willing, in the same way we were victorious in August 2006, I warn them that here in Lebanon there is a resistance, an army and a people ... that reject humiliation and fear only God," he said to applause and cheers by the crowd estimated at more than 50,000, many of them women and children waving the yellow flags of the militant group.

    Nassaralah has a funny way of defining victory from 2006.
    If I recall correctly Israel absolutely flattened parts of Lebanon and was kicking the butt of Hezbollah so bad that the U.N. had to step in and protect thier little Jew hating buddies.I have no sympathy for the Lebanese or the Palestinians as they make their own misery by constantly attacking Israel and letting their cities become nothing more than terror camps.

  2. NeoKong~ nassaralah and his scum don't represent the whole of Lebanon. They are trying to be their own little country within Lebanon (if they can't take it over outright, which Syria is working on for them). Lebanon has a very large minority Christian population. Not to mention, they are Iran's proxy in the region.

  3. Another victory like Hezbollah had last time would basically mean. .
    1) Hezbollah nearly wiped out again.
    2) Israel stops not for military reasons, but because of either international pressure, or weak leadership.

    I'm all for 1).

    Funny tha Nassaralah couldn't be found the last couple of days of the war. Must have been hiding in their holes.
