Hezbollah leader says Biden pushing Israel to ceasefire and ‘historic defeat’ in Gaza War


Hezbollah leader says Biden pushing Israel to ceasefire and ‘historic defeat’ in Gaza War



The secretary-general of the Lebanese terror group Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, celebrated recent reports of an impending ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, saying it would bring about a “historic defeat” for Israel.

Speaking at a commemoration for Iranian general Mohammad Reza Zahedi and his six companions who were killed in an alleged Israeli airstrike in Syria last week, he mocked Israel’s performance in the Gaza War and predicted its defeat.

Nasrallah said U.S. President Joe Biden pushed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to accept a truce. “Biden’s recent phone conversation with Netanyahu confirms the responsibility of the U.S. administration for the Israeli war on Gaza.” 

“The US could have stopped the Israeli war on Gaza, but it disregarded the genocide and moved only upon the Israeli killing of the foreign relief workers,” Nasrallah claimed.

According to the Hezbollah general, Biden also ordered the dismissal of the two IDF officers following the tragic killing of seven World Central Kitchen aid workers by Israeli troops.

He further called the recent withdrawal of IDF troops from Khan Younis a “defeat,” stating that “their forces were expelled from it humiliated.”

“The steadfastness and fight of the Palestinian resistance are behind the Israeli military withdrawal,” Nasrallah added.

He further mocked Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, calling him “detached from reality” and claiming that just hours after Gallant had said Hamas had been eliminated, “the Zionists suffered a defeat in Khan Younis.”
