Hezbollah begging for mercy proves Israel is right to fight —and shrug off Biden’s terrible advice
Lebanese terror outfit Hezbollah has changed its tune: After spending weeks trumpeting an apocalyptic end for Israel, the cadre of bloodthirsty cowards is now begging the Jewish state to let up.
“We support the political efforts led by [Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih] Berri under the banner of achieving a cease-fire,” whined Hez deputy leader Naim Qassem — for the first time not conditioning a truce on an end to the war in Gaza.
Turns out bravely attacking your enemies with uncanny precision and skill, rather than begging them for peace, is effective as a military strategy.
Who knew?
Israel’s amazing actions in the past month explain why Qassem is shaking in his boots.
A pager and walkie talkie attack that blew up the Hez communication network.
A subsequent rocket strike taking out the entire command of its elite Radwan unit, gathered to plan an Oct. 7-style invasion of Israel.
An airstrike on Hezbollah’s HQ in Beirut (hidden, in the obscene tradition of the region’s Islamist killers, beneath a civilian apartment block) which killed the group’s boss, Hassan Nasrallah.
A series of further strikes that serially killed Nasrallah’s replacements and most of the rest of the Hez command structure.
If Qassem is suing for peace, it’s at least in part because he knows he’s up next.
As do all other Hez honchos.
Iran certainly signed off on Qassem’s plea for a cease-fire: Tehran is the puppet- and paymaster of Hezbollah, its mightiest proxy force, but the terror masters are now dreading Israel’s justified reprisal for the massive (but failed) Iranian ballistic-missile assault on the Jewish state.
So there’s a double lesson here.
The first is that the strategy demanded by the Biden administration — under which Israel would somehow win peace by giving up on eliminating Hamas in Gaza, and not answering Hezbollah’s yearlong missile fire — is utterly absurd.
The second is that Iran can be cowed and constrained. Not through giving into the regime’s demands, but by standing firm against them.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for Joe, Kamala and their Iran-worshiping inner circle to understand, though.
