Lebanon’s Legendry Anti-Terrorist Movement Stronger Than Israeli Army

By: Kayhan Int’l

  


The 12th anniversary of the victory of the Resistance Front during the 33-day war imposed by illegal Zionist entity on Lebanon, was marked with fanfare to celebrate the shattering of the myth of superiority of the Israeli war machine.

Lebanon’s legendry anti-terrorist movement, the Hezbollah, proved to be the only Arab military force to triumph over Israel which ever since its illegitimate birth on Palestinian soil in 1948, had defeated the combined armies of several Arab states during the wars of 1948, 1967, and 1973.



Hezbollah Secretary General, Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah during his memorable speech on the occasion praised the efforts of the Resistance Forces and said that today the Lebanese Resistance is more powerful than the Israeli army, while both the US and the Zionist entity are too weak to launch wars like they did before.

Ground realities point out that these words are no exaggeration, but a crystal clear message for those who are dreaming to impose a new war on the world’s most efficient anti-terrorist organization. The experience Hezbollah has gained in the 7-year long conflict in Syria to defeat the terrorists and liberate towns and cities occupied by US-Israeli trained and armed forces, are a testimony in this regard. 

Seyyed Nasrallah said: "The resistance in Lebanon today, in its possession of weapons and equipment and capabilities and members and cadres and ability and expertise and experience, and also of faith and determination and courage and will, is stronger than at any time since its launch in the region.”

One should recall the events prior to the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 2006. Following Israel’s assassination of Lebanon’s ex-premier Rafiq Hariri in 2005, and the casting of the blame on Syria in his death, followed by UN Security Council Resolution 1559, Syria was forced to fully withdraw its military forces from Lebanon on April 30, 2005. Between 1976 and 2005, Syria had on average between 20,000 and 40,000 troops in Lebanon.
In 2006 the White House gave the green light to the Israeli regime to attack Lebanon’s Hezbollah, two months before the capture of two Israeli soldiers and the killing of eight others by Hezbollah defenders in July 2006. 

Israel’s Winograd Committee, which was formed for inquiry into the events of military engagement in Lebanon 2006 leaked a testimony from the then Zionist premier, Ehud Olmert, that the latter had been preparing for such a war at least four months before the official casus belli: the capture by Hezbollah of two Israeli soldiers at a border post on 12 July 2006.

After 33-days of intense fighting and the savage bombardment of Lebanese civilians in 2006, Israel, which was said to possess the world’s 14th powerful army, was beaten severely by the small resistance organization known as Hezbollah.

Now 12 years have passed since that day, and the anti-terrorist organization has proved itself to be more capable. Hezbollah’s active support and troop deployment in Syria started from 2012 onwards in support of the Syrian people and Syria’s legitimate government against foreign-backed (US-Zionist-Arab) Takfiri terrorism. On several fronts, Hezbollah, which continues to have its units in Syria at the request of the government of Damascus, has actively played significant roles to liberate Syrian key towns and cities.
One should remember that Hezbollah is not just a military organization with weapons and fighters. It has grassroots support – even amongst the Sunni Muslims and Christians – and has become an inseparable part of Lebanese society.

Hezbollah organizes extensive social development programmes and runs hospitals, news services and educational facilities, providing services to all irrespective of religion, sect, or political affiliations. 

Currently it operates at least four hospitals, twelve clinics, twelve schools and two agricultural centres in southern Lebanon that provide farmers with technical assistance and training. It also has an environmental department and an extensive social assistance programme. Medical care is also cheaper than in most of Lebanon’s private hospitals. 
As a result, it is deeply embedded in the Lebanese society. No matter what labels the super terrorists in Washington use against it in an attempt to discredit it, Hezbollah, which in Arabic means "Party of God” – a term derived from the holy Qur’an where on two occasions Almighty Allah has promised victory to the Truthful – is there to stay and continue the fight against the real terrorists in the region, that is, the Zionists, who will one day be driven out from all of Palestine.

In his latest speech, Seyyed Nasrallah also noted that the war in Syria was planned after the US and the Zionist entity had failed to topple the Resistance in Lebanon in 2006. He also denounced the US, Saudi and Zionist attempts to topple the Syrian government, and assured that the Axis of Resistance will emerge victorious in Syria soon.
