Lebanon’s Hezbollah said that it was not at all surprised by the positions and measures taken by the US administration and its open support for Israeli aggression towards the Palestinian people.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the Party considered that the US policy has consistently supported aggression and terrorism since the establishment of this usurping, Israeli-occupying entity.

The group held the US fully responsible for the murder, crime, siege, destruction of homes and horrific massacres against defenceless civilians, including children, women and the elderly in Gaza.

It called on the masses of Arab and Islamic nations, who are aware of the ugly truth of the US and its aggression against the peoples of Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, to condemn the US intervention and its international and regional partners.

Hezbollah also called on them to expose this intervention at all political, popular, media and legal levels, and in various regional and international forums and gatherings.

In its statement, Hezbollah assumed that the sending of US aircraft carriers to the region was intended to boost the morale of the enemy (referring to Israel) and its frustrated soldiers. “The move exposes the vulnerabilities of the Zionist military machinery, despite the atrocities and massacres it perpetrates,” the group added.

“This move will not frighten the peoples of our nation nor the resistance factions prepared for confrontation until final victory and complete liberation are achieved,” Hezbollah asserted.
