Atwan: The Zionists are trying to avoid confrontation with Hezbollah.
Abdul Bari Atwan, a leading analyst of the Arab world and the editor of the regional newspaper Ray Al-Youm, in his new article, mentioned and announced the recent speech of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of Hezbollah, on the 17th anniversary of the beginning of the 33-day war. The start of the war in July 2006 after a long absence was different from his other speeches and had a certain calm.
Atwan added, this calmness in the tone of Seyed Hassan Nasrallah surprised us; Because the situation is now tense and especially the situation on the borders of Lebanon and occupied Palestine is inflamed, and also Lebanon itself is suffering from many crises. So, was this calm of the Secretary General of Hezbollah the calm before the storm or before a big decision to confront Israel’s aggression on Lebanon’s borders? We do not have answers to these questions in general or in part; Because here we are talking about a real and decisive war and not about creating tension here and there.
In the continuation of Atvan’s article, it is stated that the decision to light the flame of war requires information, preparation, consultation, and dialogue and cannot be unilateral; Because it is a war that goes beyond the geography of Lebanon and may involve the entire region. These days, the probability that the war will start from the borders of Lebanon is even higher than in the days of the July 2006 war. The reason for this is the unprecedented increase in the power of Hezbollah and the strengthening of the military capabilities of the resistance arms, especially in occupied Palestine, the aggravation of Israel’s internal crisis, and the weakening of relations between Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet and the American government headed by Joe Biden, etc.
According to this report, 4 main developments have occurred that can ignite the fire of war in the short or long term, and there are many threats in this regard to the Zionists:
– The first development is related to the incidents on the borders of Lebanon and occupied Palestine during the past few days, which are close to the border of explosion.
– The second development is related to the establishment of Hezbollah tents in the Sheba fields area; Where the Lebanese resistance did not pay attention to any of the requests of the Zionist regime to dismantle these tents.
In his speech, Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah pointed to the recent aggression of the Zionists on the border village of Al-Ghajr in Lebanon and declared that the village of Al-Ghajr belongs to Lebanon and the occupation of the Zionist regime in it cannot be tolerated and we cannot remain silent about it. The Secretary General of Hezbollah also authorized the resistance fighters in Shabaa fields to respond to any aggressive move by the Zionist regime.
In his recent speech, the Secretary General of Hezbollah closed all doors to the mission of the American envoy Amos Hockstein to conduct negotiations on determining the land borders of Lebanon and occupied Palestine, similar to what happened in the demarcation of the maritime borders between the two sides. Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah said that the land borders of Lebanon and occupied Palestine was officially determined in the last 20s, and Israel occupied many places in the territory of Lebanon, and the village of Al-Ghajar was one of these occupied areas, and these areas are points that we cannot let them go and we will take action to release them.
Zionists’ fear of confrontation with Hezbollah
Abdul Bari Atwan stated that the failure of the Zionist forces to respond to the resistance measures on the borders of Lebanon and occupied Palestine and their inability to dismantle the Hezbollah tents in the Shebaa fields is proof of the Zionists’ fear of the consequences and that the Israelis are afraid of any limited or extensive confrontation with Hezbollah. they avoid This is why the Hebrew media reported that Netanyahu’s cabinet sent a message to Hezbollah through some intermediaries that it was looking for peace and had no desire for tension.
This Palestinian analyst added that what scared the occupying regime and forced it to avoid confronting Hezbollah until this moment is a set of factors like this.
