“This statement of the Zionists is not a new statement and they have repeated that many times. But maybe it has a message and that message is that the conditions of the Americans in the region are such that they cannot support the Zionists.

“In a sense, the Americans are trying not to throw themselves into the arms of the Zionists because they know that if the Zionists take action against us, our reciprocal measures will include bases supporting the Zionists.

“The main reason for such a statement by the Zionist regime can be seen as the message of the Americans to them that they are not able to support this regime as in the past and are not ready to enter into a battle that will determine where its fate will lead.”

“The Zionists know that if they start a military operation or action against us, the end of this action is not with them and it will definitely accelerate their destruction.”“Any Tel Aviv action against Iran will accelerate Israel destruction: IRGC,” Tehran Times, April 15, 2023, https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/483690/Any-Tel-Aviv-action-against-Iran-will-accelerate-Israel-destruction.

Speaking at a Quds Day rally in Beirut:

“Today, we celebrate with faith and calmness and feel security, strength, and power. But yesterday, the Israeli entity announced its alertness on all fronts, prepared Iron Domes on all fronts, and sent worthless threatening messages to all the countries in the region. We have created a powerful deterrent mechanism against Israel and its actions, as evidenced by what happened last week. The Israeli reaction is ridiculous. So far, neither Lebanon nor Syria or Gaza are interested in a conflict or war,” but “Israel should be scared, deterred and worried.

“It may explode, I warn Israel and the United States - the Muslim and Christian holy places are our red line... and the Palestinian red line.”

“The United States is busy with other fronts such as Russia’s war in Ukraine and the confrontation with China, and this is very troubling to the Israeli leadership. When the power of the United States weakens as a hegemonic power, it strategically affects Israel, and Israel’s deterrent power weakens because it relies on the U.S.”Matthias Inbar, “‘It may explode:’ Hezbollah chief issues stark warning to Israel in Quds Day speech,” i24 News, April 14, 2023, https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/middle-east/levant-turkey/1681481581-hezbollah-chief-marks-quds-day-with-a-warning-to-israel.

“Britain is the enemy of Muslims, as it brought down our state, tore apart our country, and planted the criminal Jewish entity, and America fights us everywhere and provides the Jewish entity with ways for survival. It supplies it with weapons and supports it internationally, as news agencies have announced these days the biggest arms deal between America and the Jewish entity.
