Beirut- Nofal Daou, the coordinator of the “Rally for Sovereignty,” commented on the speech by Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah by saying:
“It confirmed that “Hezbollah was not successful in marketing the speech, nor was Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah successful in his speech today, and I believe that all the preparations that were taking place were aimed at trying to create an expanded position in support of Nasrallah “
In an interview with Spot Shot, Daou said: “Nasrallah’s speech today was devoid of all the contents of the image that was drawn and that Hezbollah seeks to paint of him, that he is the decision-maker and the maker of events, and this speech constitutes a disappointment.” To the resistance audience, despite all the high-pitched talk and the attempt to cover the “frustrating” content that lacks military content.”
He continued, “The decision to go to war in Lebanon is not in the hands of Hassan Nasrallah, but in the hands of the Iranians. I say words that reflect the military reality even if the master does not like it, and Hamas is not the decision maker. The major weakness in Nasrallah’s speech today is that he tried to give independence.” For the Hamas movement and for himself, but he returned to talking about the Houthis and the Iraqis, proving that there is one player who moves all of them.”
He asked: “What does the Iranian Foreign Minister do on more than one visit to Lebanon and the Middle East region? And what does the Iranian Revolutionary Guard do in Lebanon 24 hours before the appearance of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah?”
Daou strongly believes that “the Iranian regime seeks to exploit Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Iraqi and Yemeni militants, in order to strengthen its regional and international position, and in order to export the revolution upon which Iran was founded. By exploiting them, it seeks to attack the Arab project and strike any attempt to restore the decision and establish the role of the Arab countries in the new world order.
He stressed that “Iran does not care, and its last concern is the interests of Palestine, whether there will be a state in Palestine or not, and if Hamas remains in Gaza, Iran will stand up and say, ‘Add Palestine to the four Arab countries whose political decisions are made by Iran .’”
Daou said: “I do not have to believe everything Nasrallah says, and it is clear that through his speech he tried to justify the reasons for not intervening on a large scale in this battle, for several considerations, in my opinion, including that Iran does not want to burn more than one card at a time. Yes, Mr. Nasrallah is right that what comes after October 7 is not the same as before, and this applies to Israel, which must have learned a lesson from practicing extremism and disrespecting the rights of the Palestinians, and it applies to Hamas as well and projects related to spreading religious ideologies in the region because in practice it is not possible “None of these projects can lead to peace.”
He added, “The Palestinians must acknowledge that wars, slogans, and ideologies cannot build a state for them and cannot restore their rights. Israel must acknowledge that Zionism, expansionist thought, and Israel’s persecution of the Palestinians will only create wars.”
Daou stressed that “the problem of the Palestinians today is two-fold: the presence of an Israeli military occupation of the land of Palestine, and an Iranian ideological-religious occupation of the Palestinian political decision-making process. In the presence of these two occupations, a Palestinian state cannot be established. The basic condition for the establishment of a Palestinian state is the elimination of these two extremisms.”
He continued, “If Israel rejects the two-state solution for peace, it must endure the wars it faces from time to time.”
He stressed that “the Arab media keeps pace with all the events in Gaza, and reports everything that happens. The Arab media even reported the speech of Sayyed Nasrallah today and the words of the leaders of Hamas and other Palestinian factions, but the question here is: What is required of the Arab countries? Is it the union of these countries and sending… Its soldiers to Gaza, like Hamas and others? Of course this will not happen.”
He stressed, “Al-Sayyid says today that Gaza is victorious and the axis to which Nasrallah follows is causing a crisis for Israel. Well, why don’t you end this entity? Why do you give a new breath to Israel? Every 3 years you repeat the same scenario and the same bidding against the Arab countries.”
He pointed out, “With what profitable logic are we talking? If 10,000 Palestinians have been killed to date in exchange for a condition from Hamas that is the liberation of 5,000 Palestinians from Israeli prisons, is this a victory?”
Daou concluded: “Lebanon’s sovereignty is not preserved by someone who says that his weapons, ideology, and conviction come from Iran. Whoever brings the Hamas movement to strike missiles from the south does not preserve Lebanon’s sovereignty. I am not afraid of Hassan Nasrallah, and Hezbollah is the greatest threat to Lebanese sovereignty in Nowadays, its danger is equal to Israel’s danger to Lebanon.”
