Nasrallah says Israel will be ‘returned to Stone Age’ if war erupts

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah continues a war of words with Israel, warning that if war erupts between the Jewish state and Lebanon, “there will be no such thing as Israel.”

In a televised speech marking 17 years since the end of the Second Lebanon War, the head of the Iran-backed Shiite terror group claims that Israel’s military has gradually “weakened” since the “defeat” it allegedly suffered in 2006.

“I say to the enemy: According to all evidence, you will be returned to the Stone Age if you go to war,” Nasrallah says, according to the Al-Manar website, echoing a similar threat made recently by Defense Minister Yoav Gallant toward Lebanon.

Nasrallah also claims that a Hezbollah truck — reportedly containing Iranian anti-tank missiles — that overturned last week in the Christian village of Kahale, sparking fierce clashes with the local community, was a “natural accident.”
