Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned Hezbollah leader Syyed Hassan Nasrallah to flee Lebanon days before he was killed in an Israeli strike and is now deeply worried about Israeli infiltration of senior government ranks in Tehran, three Iranian sources said.
In the immediate aftermath of the attack on Hezbollah’s booby-trapped pagers on Sept. 17, Khamenei sent a message with an envoy to beseech the Hezbollah secretary general to leave for Iran, citing intelligence reports that suggested Israel had operatives within Hezbollah and was planning to kill him, one of the sources, a senior Iranian official, told Reuters.
The messenger, the official said, was a senior Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander, Brigadier General Abbas Nilforoushan, who was with Nasrallah in his bunker when it was hit by Israeli bombs and was also killed.
This is just nonsense. Hezbollah was founded to drive the Israeli invasion out of Lebanon in 1982. If they were the cartoon villains, the western propaganda tries to make them out to be, they would have relentlessly attacked Israel ever since. Instead we saw a simmering conflict with escalations and deescalation over the past twenty years, until Israels full fledged escalation since a few weeks.
Hezbollah made it clear that they will stop attacking once a ceasefire in Gaza is reached, something the Netanyahu government has continuously blocked.
Hezbollah are a much larger danger to Sunni Muslims because of them helping Iran expand its Shia influence through violence in Iraq and Syria, than they are any danger to the West.
I know it is difficult for the white supremacists to acknowledge, but these groups don’t care about the West, unless it directly meddles in their regional affairs.
