Syrian Opposition: Nasrallah's Latest Remarks Reflect Hizbullah's Great Losses in Syria
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The Syrian opposition slammed on Tuesday the latest positions of Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on the Syrian conflict, saying that they are a reflection of the party's waning influence on the ground.
Syrian National Coalition member Mohammed Yehya Maktabi said: “Nasrallah's remarks are a sign of the great confusion Hizbullah is experiencing as a result of the great number of losses among its ranks.”
This confusion was also sparked by the pressure the party's supporters are exerting on it, he added.
Maktabi noted that Hizbullah's capabilities in Syria have weakened “due to a decrease in the number of its fighters in the conflict because of the high cost of fighting alongside the regime of Bashar Assad.”
“Hizbullah is trying to lift the morale of its members, but it will fail given the rise in the number of funerals of the party's fighters who were killed in Syria,” continued Maktabi.
“Despite the support from Hizbullah, the Syrian regime is still suffering on the battlefield, which has forced it to turn to a new Iraqi militia amid reports of Iran's direct intervention to restructure Hizbullah as a result of its losses,” he revealed.
Moreover, he interpreted Nasrallah's remark that the the military option in Syria has failed as an attempt by the Hizbullah leader to restore the balance of power on the ground and find an alternative to the military solution after realizing that this option cannot be achieved.
Nasrallah had told As Safir newspaper on Monday that “the Syrian regime is not facing the threat of collapse anymore.”
“We have overcome the threat of partitioning and the military choice (against the regime) has failed,” he added.

It is always sickening to listen to a criminal fanatic. The world is moving along and he keeps us hostage to his violent agenda of war and destruction.

Lebanese brainwashed youth fighting for Hezbollah in Syria, a war they are incapable of understanding !
A great loss for Lebanon... a stupid loss that could have been avoided.
If Hezbollah put as much effort in building our country and economy as it does in waging wars and pilling up weapons, Lebanon would be a leading force to reckon with in the Arab world.
Instead, Lebanon is a joke of a country !

blabla bla you're the joke FC, nobody takes you and your whining siblings seriously, not even the countries who support you: Saudis take you for cattle, and that's probably the only time they were ever right on something...
HA on the other hand is being taken seriously by all players, whether on the local, regional or international scene.
by busting israelis out of the south they reclaimed Lebanese sovereignty, and by busting the hordes of savages massing on our borders they preserved the entire country from suicide bombing. you can be sore, and you can whine all day, but everybody knows what's what, and you wont change anything to it.

FlameCatcher, don't listen to this narcissist. He is a paid propagandist. Notice something: Anytime there is an article about his hezb, he jumps in and attacks people. He is hateful and sectarian.

Hey FC
you are partly correct
the problem is that Lebanon could be great, but naïve people like you and other aren't recognizing the truth,
All the politicians and their followers have sold their souls to the highest bidder.

Half a century ago I studied in Lebanon for six years and remember it teeming with prostitutes, pimps and criminals. Even one of its Sunni prime ministers admitted selling Lebanese Christian girls to the Saudis. The 14th March group are obviously the rightful successors of this subhuman trash. Every fair-minded person knows that Hizbollah and his supporters are the only decent honorable people in Lebanon.

At least Hezbollah will fight for something besides Saudi Money. And M14 will only suggest that some Sunni cannon fodder should go sacrifice themselves in Syria. They won't send their own sons but maybe if Asir wants to go fight dressed up like a woman they will give him some US dollars.
