Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah says that “Israel, the cancerous tumor, is to be wiped out.”
According to Al-Manar, Nasrallah says Israel is capitalizing on the unrest in the region to bolster ties with moderate Arab states.
“The Zionist entity is taking advantage of the events taking place in our region in a bid to normalize ties with several Arab states,” he says.
“Right now, there are some Arab countries that have taken Israel out of the circle of threats,” he adds, according to the Iranian Press TV. “This is something very dangerous.”
“We should activate and boost all forms of the resistance against the Israeli normalization,” he says.
Pledging support for the Palestinian cause, Nasrallah says “there is no rightful and legitimate cause like al-Quds and countering the Zionist enemy.”
Nasrallah laments that the Palestinian issue “is now out of the international and popular concerns, something which gave the enemy a historical chance in order to implement its scheme.”
This scheme “surpasses occupying Palestine. It is our duty to counter this scheme,” he says.
Nasrallah calls the recent clashes between police and Palestinian protesters on the Temple Mount “alarming.”
“The day in which we will pray in al-Quds [Jerusalem] is inevitably coming despite ordeals,” he says.
