Terrorist Sheik Naim KassemBEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - The deputy chief of Hezbollah warned Tuesday that any "military adventure" by the United States and Israel against Iran would have dangerous consequences across the Mideast.
Sheik Naim Kassem suggested his pro-Iranian (and funded/supplied by Iran) group would not get involved if the U.S. attacks Iran, but he raised the possibility that Israel might attack Lebanon as part of such an assault - in which case, he said, Hezbollah would "definitely" respond.
No doubt by bravley launching missiles at civilian targets from within Lebanese "schools" again.
He said Hezbollah guerrillas were making plans in case Israel, like last summer, attacks Lebanon again.
Well ya know ass hat, if you hadn't kidnaped Israeli soldiers, Israel wouldn't have invaded.
"The resistance is taking all the necessary measures to be ready and prepared," Kassem said in an interview with the Associated (with terrorists) Press. He would not elaborate but said Hezbollah is constantly changing its fighting tactics so the Israelis would not know its capabilities.
Try fighting the Israeli army like men instead of hiding behind Lebanese civilians while attacking Israeli civilians. I'm sure Israel will never expect that tactic from brave Muslims.
We've evaluated the experience of the war and learned lessons from it and are taking steps to accommodate them with new realities," he said. "We are making sure the enemy will be in the dark in the future. This is the strength of the resistance and the secret of its success."
The biggest success they had last time was in enlisting the eager aid of the main stream media. Reading most accounts from the MSM you'd have thought Israel attacked unprovoked and that they were targeting civilians. You heard nary a word about Hezbollah indiscriminately lobbing missiles at civilians in Israel unless you watched Fox News.
The United States insists it is not planning to attack Iran and is trying to persuade Tehran to suspend uranium enrichment, as demanded by the United Nations. But fear of a strike is growing throughout the Middle East.
Fear of a strike should be growing in the Middle East. Iran is courting a dragon.
Kassem, a Shiite Muslim cleric (and terrorist), warned that an assault on Iran could expand across the region.
Huh. That's weird. I'm agreeing with a terrorist. Weird feeling. Fortunately it looks like
a few Muslim countries are lining up on our side.
"It remains to be seen what the level of an American aggression on Iran would be," he said. "Is it going to be limited or an all-out war? Will other countries become involved? Will it spread to the entire region?"
It will undoubtedly spread, but American aggression ? Iran is ran by people that have repeatedly declared they seek the destruction of Israel and the US. They also believe that causing chaos will hasten the return of the Twelfth Imam. I'm hoping for an all-out war to ensure Iran's insane ideology never results in nuclear war.
Asked if the U.S. attacked Iran, Hezbollah would retaliate by striking Israel, Kassem said Iran is capable of defending itself because it "possesses the means, a tenacious populace and a wise leadership."
Wise leadership ? The terrorist cracks a joke !
But yeah, they've got missiles that can hit Israel, no missiles that can hit us, so sure ! They would attack Israel.
Iran has threatened to attack the hundreds of thousands of U.S. forces based in the Persian Gulf and in Iraq if America launches a strike.
Like they'd get the chance.
Kassem warned, "we will definitely respond and defend ourselves" if Israel attacks Lebanon.
What is this crap about Israel attacking Lebanon ? What does that have to do with Iran making nukes ? What does that have to do with us or Israel attacking Iran ?
Kassem's comments aimed to counter speculation that Hezbollah may stir up trouble in the region - including attacking Israel - if Iran is attacked: "They have to know that any military adventure, if widened and involves several countries in the region, would have dangerous consequences for everyone."
So earlier in the interview he says they won't attack Israel if Israel or the US attacks Iran, then implies they will ? Muslim pretzel logic ! From this mealy-mouthed interview the AP get the headline "Hezbollah Warns U.S. Against Iran Attack" ?
In Lebanon, Hezbollah has been locked in a power-struggle for months with the U.S.-backed government of Prime Minister Fuad Saniora. The Shiite group and its allies are demanding a new government in which they would have greater power. Washington has dramatically beefed up support for Saniora, who has rejected the opposition's demands.
The government of Prime Minister Fuad Saniora is also backed by the people of Lebanon. A detail to insignificant for the AP. Hezbollah is a terrorist group consisting of Syrians, Iranians and Islamic scum from throughout the Middle East funded and supplied by Syria and Iran.
Kassem blamed the United States for the deadlock, saying it is pressuring Saniora to refuse a compromise. Washington's goal is to undermine Hezbollah's resistance against Israel, he said.
Compromise ? Hezbollah's goal is the destruction of Israel. How can there be a compromise ? Resistance against Israel ? Hezbollah has initiated every conflict with Israel. By Resistance does the AP mean Hezbollah is resisting Israeli self defense ?
Kassem, who is the deputy of Hezbollah's charismatic leader, Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, dismissed Lebanese and American government charges that Hezbollah was a tool of Iran and Syria. In contrast, he said, "the (Saniora) government is directly dictated by the Americans."
Yeah, Syria has a long history of non-interference in what was once the "Switzerland of the Middle East". That terrorist, he's so funny he's killing me !
