Hezbollah to US: Aircraft carrier shows Israel weakness, it doesn't scare us

W460

Hezbollah considered Wednesday the U.S. "a full partner to the Israeli aggression on Gaza," holding it fully responsible for the killing, siege, destruction, and massacres "against defenseless civilians, including children, women, and elderly."

"We were not surprised by the U.S. support for the Zionist aggression against the Palestinian people," Hezbollah said in a statement.

The U.S. had sent a carrier strike group to the Eastern Mediterranean to assist Israel after the attack by Hamas.

"Sending an aircraft carrier to the region will not scare the peoples of our nation nor the resistance factions that are ready to fight until victory," Hezbollah's statement said, adding that the move reveals the weakness of Israel and its need for foreign support.

Hezbollah urged the Arab and Islamic nations to condemn the U.S. intervention and to expose it regionally and internationally at all forums and through politics and media.

"We call on the masses of our Arab and Islamic nation, who know the truth of the U.S. aggression against Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, to condemn the U.S. intervention in every possible way," Hezbollah said.

Hezbollah will have to prove it isn't afraid. It appears that U.S. Navy ships serve as a strong deterrent and are effective unless the entire Middle East is set ablaze and all U.S. bases are targeted.
