The illusion of a solution: killing Hassan Nasrallah : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 30/9/2024

The ongoing Israeli operation against Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed militia group so dominant in Lebanon, is following a standard pattern. Ignore base causes. Ignore context. Target leaders, and target personnel.

Sour grapes.

It's always good to kill the people who start wars, rather than the poor buggers who have to fight them.

Hassan Nasrallah has been the leader of Hezbollah for 32 years. He is not the first of the scum to be knocked off; Israel has been working its way through them for some time. The turd has been responsible for the deaths of more Arabs than Israelis. He was responsible for the blowing up of 12 Arab kids while they played soccer.

Whatever aid is being given to the comedic dictator of Ukraine should be diverted to Israel so that more of the behind-the-scenes scum can be obliterated with minimal civilian losses.

Muhannad Alazzeh, former member of the Jordanian Senate, explains:

"...Hezbollah’s fealty to Khomeini is what pushed the party...to engage in civil wars in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen, and to intervene in the protests in Bahrain. These interventions by Hezbollah were not against Israel but against the Muslim citizens in those countries, most of whom were engaged in revolts against tyrannical dictatorial regimes, who built their power off the bodies of their opponents.

Hezbollah’s support for criminal and corrupt regimes in Yemen, Syria, Iraq, and Iran has had a much stronger impact on the Arab and Islamic masses than Hezbollah’s attacks on Israel, which is why the assassination of Hassan Nasrallah is not an event worth shedding tears for most of these masses.

Hezbollah’s involvement in repressive actions in neighboring countries elevated strongman leaders who oppressed their fellow Muslims, which angered enough people that Israel was able to recruit a large base for espionage missions, one which undoubtedly helped in carrying out successive assassinations of Hezbollah leaders, the last but not least of which was the assassination of Nasrallah.

Even at home in Lebanon, Hezbollah is accused by Lebanese citizens (with the exception of the Shiite community) of being an armed militia that undermines and weakens the Lebanese state. This accusation has turned out to be true over the past years; Hezbollah took up arms against Saad Hariri’s Future Movement in 2008 and occupied buildings and facilities in Beirut in a blatant show of force. The group was also accused of being involved in the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

From the perspective of the overwhelming majority of Arab and Muslim peoples, Hezbollah is a destructive element that fuels sectarian conflicts and supports authoritarian regimes so long as these regimes share a common sectarian affiliation with Hezbollah and the Supreme Leader of Iran wishes to support them."






Now Israel must deal with Nasrallah’s successor, Hassan Khalil Yassin, ....

Oh wait. They just did. He was sent to his 72 virgins a few hours after Nasrallah. Allah's going to be doing some overtime in the virgin making business.

"Now Israel must deal with Nasrallah’s successor, Hassan Khalil Yassin"
- I think I heard he was also killed mere hours after Nasrallah.

Yes to all of that mhaze, I’m trusting your not suggesting the leftist fallacy and suicidal trap that all enemies of Hezbollah are our friendly cousins.

Just a reminder Islam is Islam; unless your one of that breed, you are still and always will be, the infidel to be exterminated.
