Nasrallah warns of full mobilization for Syrian war
2015-05-23
Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah on Saturday warned that fighting in Syria could lead the militant organization to declare full mobilization of its members. "We have bargaining chips that we have yet to use in the struggle," he said.
Yea, start firing your grads on ISIS held regions, Hassan.
"This is the time for everyone to mobilize, everyone who can participate," he added. "The danger facing us is an existential one that is similar to that in 1982." If the organization had not fought in Syria, said Nasrallah, it would have found itself fighting inside Lebanese territory.
When he's right, he's right.

#5  Who then will stand ready to shoot off Hizb'allah's 80,000-100,000 rockets and missiles aimed at Israel when Iran orders it?

The Israelis won't exterminate Lebanon's Shiites. ISIS and Nusra will. Those rockets will be re-directed at Syria's Islamists. I'm gonna bet that they were theoretically directed at Israel so as not to worsen sectarian tensions in Lebanon, but in reality were a last-ditch weapon against both Lebanese and Syrian adversaries.
