Nasrallah: US-led invasion of Iraq to lead to Israel's elimination
2003-03-19
A US-led invasion of Iraq will awaken Arabs and Muslims, ultimately leading to Israel's destruction and an end to American dominance in the region, according to the leader of Lebanon's Hizbullah movement. Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah referred to Washington's desire to get rid of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's regime during a Tuesday night address to supporters. "The Americans may come and succeed in toppling this or that regime, but this could be a blessing in disguise," Nasrallah told thousands of Shiites. "This American invasion will lead to an unprecedented awakening within this (Islamic) nation and among its youths, and to a holy war and revolutionary (movement) placing this nation before an inevitable decisive battle."
He's making the assumption he and the other proponents of Armed Struggle® are going to win that battle...

#1  Yes, the Arab Street will be aroused! AGAIN!!! If I was the Sheikh, I'd sleep with one eye open (unless that's all he has).
