Thousands gathered for the
Hezbollah rally in southern Beirut.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has told thousands of supporters at a rally in Lebanon that the disappearance of Israel is inevitable. "The presence of Israel is but temporary and cannot go on in the region," he told the Beirut rally.
Speaking by video link, he again hinted at revenge for the killing of a senior Hezbollah commander in Syria.
Hezbollah accuses Israel of being behind the death of Imad Mughniyeh, although Israel denies involvement.
Hezbollah - or the Party of God - is a powerful political and military organisation in Lebanon made up mainly of Shia Muslims.
'New victory'
Mughniyeh died in a car bombing in Damascus on 12 February. He was wanted by the United States and Israel for a series of attacks on Western and Israeli targets in the 1980s and 1990s that left hundreds dead.
The rally in a mainly Shia district of southern Beirut was staged to mourn Mughniyeh and remember other militants killed, including Hezbollah leader, Sheikh Abbas al-Musawi, who died in an Israeli helicopter strike in 1992 in southern Lebanon.
"I swear by God that your blood will not have been spilled in vain", Sheikh Nasrallah said in tribute to Mughniyeh.
Sheikh Nasrallah accused Israel of preparing for war against Lebanon, but said Hezbollah would hit back with rocket attacks.
"We are ready for a confrontation and we are ready to defend and ready to create a new victory for us, God willing", he said.
It is the second time in recent days that Sheikh Nasrallah has threatened Israel. At Mughniyeh's funeral, he warned of "open war".
Hezbollah's capture of two Israeli soldiers and the killing of others prompted Israel to launch a month-long war in Lebanon in 2006.
More than 1,000 Lebanese and 160 Israelis died in the conflict. It was described as a grave and serious failure by an Israeli government appointed commission in January.
The Hezbollah rally came as Lebanon remains politically deadlocked.
There have been more than a dozen attempts to elect a president since November, but the governing majority, backed by the West, and the Hezbollah-led opposition have been unable to reach agreement.
Parliament is scheduled to reconvene next week in another attempt to choose a head of state.
You are looking at the face of satan's spawn! He is pure evil!
From a secret location hiding from the Israelis.....real brave.
Don’t worry, the God of Israel will get Nasrallah.
It is a matter of history that when Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the Nazi death camps he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.
He did this because he said in words to this effect: “Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the track of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Edmund Burke
In Memorial
This week, the UK removed The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it ‘offended’ the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. This is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it.
It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This is a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900 Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved and humiliated while the German and Russian peoples were looking the other way!
Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be ‘a myth,’ it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.
How many years will it be before the attack on the World Trade Center ‘never happened’ because it offends some Muslim in the U.S.? They are already claiming it was a plot of our own government.
Hey terrorist coward, why do not you show up in public?
he’s marked. his location is known...I have no doubt. his time on earth is limited. again, I have no doubt. bet he is dressed like a woman and hiding among the children.
Sometimes in my evil moments I wonder...
If Israel were wiped out, the Muslim countries would turn on one another and upon their neighbors, and upon the world, but if the Muslim countries were wiped out, then things would be a lot quieter.
And then I realize that thinking such thoughts is wrong, and donate money to CAIR as penance for my evil thoughts.
(If the sarcasm in the above was not obvious...)
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost.
Israel will vanish because he will not be able to see it.
yep, and when it does all explode over there Imahandjob is gonna get iran into it and that will be that for ALL those carpet flyin’ savages.
Watch out what you wish for.
Where is napalm now that you need it? Critter Issie Time.
Olmert is a coward. He should have taken out the crowd.
Collateral damage? I don’t care about no stinkin’ collateral damage.
It would be logical if the UK would tell the truth, that the muslims fought for and with the nazis. Logic being thrown out the door in the UK means America is next. Keep your powder dry.
Good....., the Citizens, have to be ready. Proud to say, “Dittos” and “Check” back. The muslims have no idea what they’ve done...but when the time to remind them comes...America and Israel will remind them.
When the lead is gone then it’s time to pluck Yew.
errr..... drawing back the bow string on an English Long Bow made of Yew wood to let fly the arrow.
steady your aim, I’ll distract them by plinking.
