US commander warns Hezbollah of severe consequences if they attack Israel
2020-07-15
[ALMASDARNEWS] The U.S. Army’s Central Command, General Kenneth McKenzie, has warned Hezbollah against any military action against Israel because that would be a major mistake and would not end well for Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
, the party and its supporters.The Lebanon-based El-Nashra News Agency quoted McKenzie as saying: "After the exchange of prisoners that took place with Iran, it became clear that we are in a period of opportunities that were born through ability and will, and I do not think Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

has any doubt about our capabilities," noting that "Iran is still seeking to control the region and remove the United States from it, but it is very difficult to know what Iran is thinking and I think that after the liquidation of the Quds Force Commander, General Qassem Soleimani
, Iran is finding it difficult to make decisions."

"During my visit to Lebanon, I told commander Joseph Aoun about our commitment to the Lebanese army," pointing out that "Hezbollah is a problem in our view," stressing that "in the event of the party carries out a military operation against Israel, it would be a big mistake, and the end of this matter will not be good. "

On the Iraqi issue, McKenzie explained, "I am optimistic about the reality of our presence in Iraq. The new Prime Minister, Mustafa al-Kazimi, wants to impose Iraqi illusory sovereignty, and we totally agree with him and believe that we can contribute to this, and I believe that he seeks to break the militia’s control. He also has a political reality that he has to deal with. He understands the difficulty of this issue and we have to be patient while he is moving forward," pointing out that "we have deployed air defense systems in the Green Zone in Iraq and we do not want to discuss tactical details on the subject.
