Nasrallah: Resistance achieved great victory in Lebanese elections; also, Nakhba Day a catastrophe for all Arabs

[HODHODYEMENNEWS] General Secretary of Hezbollah. Sayyid His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah
...The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...
, says the Sunday parliamentary vote showed that "the resistance achieved great victory in the election."

In his remarks late on Wednesday, Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah said the large turnout and the outcome of the election conveyed a message of people’s adherence and commitment to the resistance.

He added that the huge support for Hezbollah and its allies in the election showed people’s commitment to the path of resistance.

After years of aggressive campaign targeting the resistance, spearheaded by the Americans, the number of votes and parliament members have only increased for Hezbollah and its allies in the Arab country, according to Sayyid Nasrallah’s speech.

The Hezbollah leader furthermore said that contrary to claims, there was no single bloc in the parliament that could claim the majority in elections, adding that "none of the honest political parties have made that claim."

"The advantage of not having a single party or group owning the majority in the parliament, is that it makes everyone equally responsible."

The Hezbollah leader said that "the nature of the crisis in 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...
does not allow one single group to solve the crisis single-handedly even if they have the majority, which calls for cooperation between all different groups."

He also debunked lies promoted by the opposition, including claims that the resistance bloc has sought to postpone the election, that elections were held under the presence of Hezbollah’s weapons, or Iranian influence.

"We saw the American embassy and the electoral lists that were made there. We saw the Saudi ambassador and bags of money that were spent. Did anyone see any Iranian intruding in those elections?" he remarked.

Nasrallah called for changing the current election law, saying "it should not be possible for people to win a seat in the parliament with 500 votes while others who get thousands of votes do not reach the parliament."

Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah hastened to add that there are several reforms that need to be made in the election process, such as setting the voting age at 18. The division of the districts should also be changed and replaced with making Lebanon a single electoral district, he insisted.

Hassan Nasrallah has said that Nakba Day 'not only a catastrophe for Palestine but for all the Arab nations in the region.'

[HODHODYEMENNEWS] General Secretary of the Hezbollah movement, Sayyid His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has said that Nakba Day, which marks the dau when the Zionist regime was created, was "not only a catastrophe for Paleostine but for all the Arab nations in the region."

"The Paleostinian people will no longer wait for Arab regimes to come to their help, as they have chosen the path of resistance against the occupying Israeli regime," Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah said, stressing that" "Arab regimes are unable to protect their own nations, let alone defend the Paleostinian cause."

The Sayyid said this during his speech on Friday, commemorating the 6th anniversary of the martyrdom of Sayyid Mustafa Badr al-Deen, a military leader of Hezbollah and an advisor to Sayyid Nasrallah himself.

The Hezbollah leader said that martyr Badr al-Deen "fought against the global arrogance
That'd be us. They get tired of bitching about the Great Satan sometimes.
led by the United States and the Israeli regime."

"Badr al-Deen’s generation did not wait for any Arab, Islamic, or international decisions to start their resistance," he stated.

According to Nasrallah, "the Paleostinian people too will no longer wait for Arab regimes, the Arab League
...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing...
, or the United Nations
...an idea whose time has gone...
to come to their help in the fight against the Israeli occupation."
