Hezbollah leader threatens escalation in Israel-Hamas war: 'Nothing is off the table'
[NY Post] In his remarks Friday, Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah threatened an escalation in his militia’s fighting with Israel, saying the group will determine its next steps based on how the war unfolds in Gaza.

In lengthy televised remarks on Friday, Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah warned "Americans have to pay" for the United States’ involvement in the war in Gaza.

"Let me be clear, the United States is just as responsible," Nasrallah said, as he accused the Israeli government of being a pawn of the United States.

"Americans have to pay, they have to pay for Israel’s slaughter," he said.

#2 Facade. They have to keep a public appearance of support for Palestinians and Hamas. But shia have their own time frame for confronting israel and the west, i dont think this is the moment.
