Beirut - Saba:
The Secretary-General of Lebanon's Hezbollah, Sheikh Naim Qassem, affirmed, "We in Hezbollah support Iran's independent choices, stand against American hegemony and occupation, and oppose Israeli occupation."
He stated, "The choice is to liberate the land, build the nation, and not submit to dictates or surrender to the enemy. We will resist for our country, no matter the sacrifices."
During his speech at the first night of the Ashura mourning councils in Beirut's southern suburbs, Sheikh Qassem said, "Iran has proven that it alone is capable of confronting this global tyranny, alongside the criminal Israeli regime and with significant European support."
He added, "Iran does not receive support from any other countries, nor do other nations fight alongside it. It has no supply lines—it stands alone, relying on the capabilities it has built itself."
Sheikh Qassem pointed out that "Iran has solidified its regional and international position through its convictions and choices, without conceding anything."
He emphasized that "today, Iran is stronger than before the war. It is a supporter of the resistance, an ally to its neighbors and friends, and capable of ensuring collective security for the region's countries without needing America or its allies."
Sheikh Qassem questioned, "Why has this aggression against Iran occurred?" explaining that "the central goal of America and Israel in waging war on Iran was to destroy any independent, influential force supporting resistance and the liberation of Palestine in our region."
He stressed that "Israel is an expansionist entity that will not be satisfied with all of Palestine's lands, nor with occupying the Golan and beyond—it seeks control over the entire region, as proven by events and facts."
Sheikh Qassem affirmed that "Iran has thwarted the three objectives of the aggression: canceling uranium enrichment (which Iran possesses and continues), damaging its missile program (which remains a defensive capability, striking the enemy), and overthrowing its regime (which did not happen)."
He noted that Iran has a courageous leader, a great people, and the Revolutionary Guards and security forces, who have made immense sacrifices.
Sheikh Qassem declared, "This year, we raised the slogan: 'I will never abandon you, O Hussein.' We will not abandon you because you represent truth, your path leads us to God, and we seek to raise our generations in obedience to God."
He added, "You, the people of resistance and honor, have lifted the nation's head high, proving that Hussein lives within us. You will continue the pledge of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah until we achieve all goals—victory or martyrdom—on the path of Imam Hussein (AS)."
