From their hearts he appeared.

Sayyed Nasrallah: US- "Israel" the Biggest Threat  

Moving to political titles, His Eminence stressed that "the real threat that this nation and all its governments is facing is the American-"Israeli" project and the American administration no matter which president rules."

"The biggest thieves of our resources are the US and "Israel"," he added warning "the nation to be aware of this reality and not be deceived by the American hypocrites who claim interests in democracy and freedom."

"Arab and Muslim nations should be aware that the US administration is the enemy and threat to the nation," his Eminence confirmed.

Noting that "during Obama's rule, the CIA transformed itself into a Mossad agent," Sayyed Nasrallah asked "didn't we hear US President Barack Obama announcing few days ago that his administration has provided "Israel" with services as no previous administration has done?"

"US would renounce its alliances if people turn against them. This is a characteristic of the devil," he said adding that "the real enemy is the US administration and its tool in the region, which is the Zionist entity."

"The US administration is the one occupying the Palestinian territories. It is responsible for the detention and displacement of hundreds of Palestinians," Sayyed urged.

"We should also be aware that the US administration, and after the resistance movements failed its new Middle East project failed, it woke up with the awakening of the Arab nations to revive the new Middle East project, but this time through triggering incitement and sectarian language that benefits only US and its "Israeli" ally."

"According to Imam Khamenai's fatwa we should respect each others' shrines and scared figures," Sayyed Nasrallah reminded.
 
Introducing the Palestinian developments, the Secretary General of Hizbullah stressed that "al-Quds and Palestine remain the central cause and the axis of conflict in the region."

"Day after day the "Israelis" decide thousands of settlements. Our fear is that "Israel" would take advantage of the Arabs being distracted in their own affairs to achieve its aims," His Eminence warned.

"The "Israelis" are taking extra steps that aim at Judaizing the holy al-Quds city," Sayyed clarified urging that "Palestine should always be the central cause no matter how much the internal crises were."

"The "Israeli" enemy seeks to demolish al-Aqsa Mosque and we must warn it against doing this great folly," he threatened.

Sayyed Nasrallah: Iraq Scored A Historic Victory in Defeating US 

Moving to the Arab scene, the Secretary General of Hizbullah hailed the Tunisian,
 Libyan, and Egyptian Revolutions that conquered their tyrants.
 
"In Yemen, the challenge is still ongoing and there are some who are trying to incite sectarianism while in Bahrain, people are still trying to peacefully achieve their demands regardless of the oppression," Nasrallah viewed.

Considering that the Egyptian revolution resulted in plenty developments that shook "Israel", His eminence explained that "any transformation in Egypt will limit the "Israeli" options in the region, and this is the challenge ahead of the Egyptian elections."


"Our hope is that the Arab people will not be deceived by the Americans."

Addressing the US defeat in Iraq, Sayyed Nasrallah explained that "US occupation has never entered Iraq to leave it; they had the objective to control it and establish bases for dozens of years but the resistance and the high cost forced them to withdraw."

"The heroic Iraqi resistance and its struggle forced the US to choose to withdraw," he pointed out noting that "the US withdrawal from Iraq is a real defeat for the US."

"The resistance movements must celebrate this victory as the Iraqi people and resistance have achieved a historic triumph," Sayyed Nasrallah said.
 
Reflecting that "there is no media coverage of the US' withdrawal from Iraq," His Eminence noted to the "the responsibility of all resistance movements and to shed light on this historic US defeat."

"When it is defeated in Gaza and Lebanon, this means "Israel" is deteriorating, and when it is defeated in Iraq, that means that the US is deteriorating," the Secretary General of Hizbullah asserted.

Explaining that "the Americans are trying to distract the public's attention of the fact that in few years the Iraqi people were able to defeat the strongest army in the world," he moved to the Syrian situation.

Sayyed Nasrallah Calls For Syrian Reform Away From Sectarian Lang. 

"We remain on our stance; we support the reforms in Syria, and we are with a resisting government." Sayyed Nasrallah reiterated adding that "some people want to destroy Syria and compensate for their loss in Iraq."

Commenting on the head of the so-called Syrian National Council Burhan Ghaliyoun announcement that he will cut ties with Iran and the resistance movements, especially Hizbullah and Hamas, His Eminence wondered "who really benefits from that."

"Regarding the Golan Heights, head of the Syrian National Council stated that he will refer the issue to the international community, and therefore this serves "Israel"," he added noting that "a religious figure of the so-called Syrian opposition declared that "once they rule, they intend to cross the Lebanese borders in order to fight the resistance and end it."

"They are asking for a Syrian regime that would surrender and would be disloyal to Arabs," Sayyed Nasrallah stressed.

Condemning all sorts of sectarian language in dealing with the Syrian crisis, the Head of the Islamic Resistance reminded that "armies, fleets, and warships previously arrived to the Lebanese shore, and they were destroyed."

Sayyed Nasrallah:We're Growing in Nb. and Arms
 
In his speech, His Eminence tackled the Lebanese internal situation.
 

"We cannot deal with the Lebanese developments separately from the regional ones," Nasrallah said insisting "on peace and avoiding sectarian tension in Lebanon."

"As some parties seek to lead Lebanon into internal conflict and civil war, we point out that Hizbullah is being held responsible for any event taking place in the country," he added calling Hizbullah people to stick to patience and awareness as "some seek strife."
 
Reiterating "the call to achieve justice by tackling the file of false witnesses," His Eminence also emphasized the importance of the "army, people, and resistance" equation in facing the "Israeli" threat whether the spy ring or by uncovering spying devices planted in Lebanese land."


"No plots and wars whether political or psychological would be able to target the resistance," Sayyed Nasrallah assured telling "all those who are gambling on change and conspiring against us, the resistance, with God's will, will remain and keep going."

"Day after day, the resistance is developing, and our number has increased, and so has our weapon," he emphasized noting that "the real Lebanese security problem lies in the arms found in the hands of all Lebanese parties, homes, families, and tribe."

Addressing "those who even think of disarming us from our missiles or naval capacities," Sayyed Nasrallah viewed that "they are seeking to serve "Israel"."

"Through their calls for dialogue, some aim at achieving what "Israel" was not able to accomplish for the past 30 years," his Eminence moved on vowing that "this will not happen."

Reminding that "Hizbullah has succeeded in liberating the land and detainees as it resisted with modest capacity the Zionist aggression without the help of the international community," Sayyed Nasrallah added that today the scene is different.

"We are tens of thousands in Lebanon who are trained to fight and to be martyrs. We are a power that is still underestimated by the enemy. We are a power that will surprise the enemy," Sayyed stressed.

Concluding that in the day of difficult choices, no threats and warnings would stop us, the Secretary General of Hizbullah His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah restated "the Pledge of preserving Imam Hussein's path of Martyrdom and Victory."
