From the YouTube channel of Sayed Hasan:
Political Section of the speech of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah Secretary General, on 10th June 2015, devoted to the Imam Khamenei thought.
In his last speech, the Secretary General of Hezbollah evoked the latest developments of the war opposing Hezbollah and the Syrian Arab Army to the takfiri terrorists along the Lebanese-Syrian border, where the successes of the Resistance continues despite the propaganda. After defeating the Al Nosra Front, Hezbollah fighters repelled a surprise attack from the “Islamic State” and now announce their determination to eliminate any terrorist presence along their border. Sayed Hassan Nasrallah says that the enemy will be routed, and that victory is inevitable.

What I wish to talk about in the few minutes left to me regards the latest developments, namely the situation in the Qalamoun and the jurd of Ersal. Of course, in recent days, major victories have occurred in the Qalamoun, and especially with the victories achieved this morning, I can now say that the high peaks and lofty mountains (some say the dominating mountains) have all fallen under the control of the Syrian Arab Army and the Mujahideen of the Resistance (Hezbollah). [Public: “Salutations be upon the Prophet (saas) and his family.”] They now have the required control – via firepower, sufficient to militarily dominate the rest of jurds of this region. In the jurd of Ersal, during these last days, this great progress was achieved, and a total and humiliating defeat was inflicted on the Al-Nusra Front [affiliated with Al Qaeda].
Now there is some people in Lebanon trying to help the Al-Nusra Front psychologically, morally, in terms of media, they support them, but it’s too late, their defeat is clear and things will continue to move in this direction.
The major development is the beginning of the battle and confrontation against Daesh (Islamic State). And it’s no problem that they were the ones who opened the fight. For in our case (maybe some people give this value from a military perspective), for psychological, moral and religious reasons, a group that attacks us first and is the aggressor is for us preferable to it being we who started the aggression. Religious scholars, especially the clerics and those who follow the law and cultural issues are aware of it.
In any case, yesterday, they attacked with hundreds of fighters and a large number of military vehicles several bases of our brothers in the Jurd Ras Baalbeck along the Lebanese-Syrian border. That is to say, they did not attack the vicinity of Ersal and Qalamoun where the front is open. Perhaps they assumed that this quiet front was asleep, and that they could take advantage of the surprise factor and negligence (of Hezbollah) and get a great moral victory and occupy our positions, take control and therefore control strategic and very sensitive points on the border between Lebanon and Syria, especially the towns of Ras Baalbeck and Qaa. Similarly, they hoped to expand in the region and reunite certain areas under their control.
Yesterday’s attack had several objectives, whether on the psychological, moral, media, or military level, as well as the reality and presence on the ground. The brothers of the Resistance have faced up with courage and heroism, they killed dozens of armed fighters (it’s not my responsibility to give the exact figures, let the media talk of it), dozens of Daesh fighters fell, were killed and wounded, a number of their vehicles were destroyed, and they fled humiliated and defeated, abandoning many of their dead on the battlefield.
Naturally, the resistance (Hezbollah), which fights in the most violent battles, saw a number of its Mujahideen fall as martyrs with honour in this battle we have won, and we ask God, Glorified and Exalted, to accept them and grant their families patience and solace and make for their families and for us honour, pride and glory in this world and in the hereafter.
Here is what I want to say about it: the battle against Daesh in Qalamoun has started, as well as in the Eastern (mountain) range, on the border between Lebanon and Syria. They are the ones who attacked us and initiated the battle, and there is no problem with that, but we will continue this battle. We have the absolute determination to end this evil terrorist takfiri presence at our border, whatever should be the price and sacrifice. As for us, this is an irrevocable decision.
Whatever the violence of the battles, the extent of the sacrifices, propaganda and the collusion of the media, the pressures here and there, all the statements, what I am saying is not new, but as confirmation for each day, and with every martyr who was elevated to the Kingdom of God, Glorified and Exalted be He, we confirm our determination, our determination, our firm and decisive will not to tolerate after that day the presence of any terrorist or takfiri at our borders, in our mountains or in the smallest part of our villages. And I guarantee you, I guarantee with certainty that they will suffer a crushing defeat. They will be vanquished and defeated. It is only a matter of time. And as I have said on more than one occasion, we’re in no hurry. We act with the composure necessary to achieve this goal and purpose.
When one of us (or some of us) have the will, determination and resolution, and the ability, faith and trust, as well as such heroic mujahedeen (Hezbollah fighters), so with certitude, we shall not consider but the inevitable horizon of the next victory.
Congratulations and greetings, and peace and mercy of God be upon you and His blessings.

Penelope, the takfiri butchers’ defeat will bring their patron, Israel, into the field. As with the situation in Novorossiya where the lying vermin of the Western MSM were reporting the Resistance’s coming defeat, with slavering relish, just as the Orcrainian forces were being encircled, so, too, have the recent rash of reports of Assad’s coming defeat had the stench of lies all about them. But, it being a stink that one is affronted by any time one nears any cess-pool of the Western MSM, it is hard to distinguish on miasma from another.
OT, Breaking News:
Donald Trump, billionaire big mouth running for President, says on Fox O’Reilly a few minutes ago, he can get along with Putin, they will be friends, and the Russians are good to work with, he’s made deals with Russians, he likes them.
Amazing. He dislikes Chinese policies much more and wants to keep Russia from getting too close to China.
Of course, that horse left the barn last year.
But, the Donald at least spoke completely rationally about Russia and Putin. Not a hint of warmongering.
@Red Ryder
Donald Trump is still a loudmouthed idiot who made his money from real estate speculation (not difficult if you’re a connected asshole like he is). Meaning he’s about as qualified to run the country as Sarah Palin would have been.
I once saw an interview of Putin where in the subtitles he said :”I’d rather have an intelligent and rational enemy/foe than a stupid and simplistic friend”. This vid seemed to be from the days after his Chechen war victory. I would tend to agree with Putin’s judgement here.
Besides, do you really think the power structure in the US would allow a megalomaniac like Trump who’d think that “he’d be the real boss as President” to win the Presidency of the United States? The Inner State would never allow the election of Trump, because he’s stupid enough to believe that US Presidency has real power and autonomy, and he’s too arrogant to take orders.
The only thing worse than Trump is Hitlery Clinton, but her masters have a very tight leash on her (as you would with any rabid female canine). And the smirking con-artist Jeb Bush.
For all of the people bashing Obama, it’s only going to get worse after the next fake election. I’m no fan of Obama, but I think you’ll find it extremely ironic when you look back and find yourself saying: “Obama was better.”
Everyone on the planet would be better than Obama.
He is the greatest Fraud and Failure since God created the Universe.
You consider God’s creation of the Universe a fraud and failure? An interesting thought…
:-)
I’m Sorry Mats, not trying to be offensive, just in good humor, but Zweistein’s take is funny.
Nice one Zweistein.
And yes, Obama maybe a disappointment to many people, but I keep thinking about how we thought no-one could be worse than:
Mr. Cigar Sex-Toy Clinton who:
(a) goaded into bombing and destroying Yugoslavia by his benefactors,
(b) conveniently ignored the French/Belgian instigated genocide in Rwanda while claiming to be the 1st “black” president
(c) set-up all the financial/regulatory conditions to cause the implosion of the Banking System in 2008
(d) Stooped to using cigars as a prop with a young, power-lusting moronic bimbo
Then we got BUSH (GW, aka Bubba-Bush). Bubba-Doofus Bush who presided over:
(a) 911
(b) Destruction of Iraq.
(c) Trillions of dollars burned/laundered into KBR/Halliburton (i.e. his family’s and Cheney’s cronies)
(d) Sub-Prime Implosion
(e) Trillions of dollars bailout of the ponzi-scheme investment banks
(f) The “Patriot” Act
(g) Mass surveillance
(h) Open torture and attempts to make torture culturally acceptable.
(i) Massive expansion of the US govt bureaucracy, along with huge inefficiencies.
(j) and was One of the dumbest “sounding” Presidents in History.
So after Bubba Bush, we thought nobody could possibly be worse, then we got Obama who:
(a) Authorized the summary executions of American citizens including juveniles (Anwar al alekhi’s son was 15 yrs old when a US drone burned him alive while ripping him apart). – A complete and open violation of the US Constitution. – Something even Bubba-Bush didn’t authorize
(b) Authorized mass killings of thousands of innocent bystanders in Drone strikes supposedly directed against “terrorists”; that include knowingly killing a Pakistani Taliban leader while his 15yr old wife was massaging his feet (on a roof top in their village). They knowingly slaughtered that innocent girl (who was probably an unwilling slave since her terrorist husband was a severe diabetic, impotent and in his late 50s).
(c) Has bred 100’s of thousands of new Islamic terrorists thanks to (b)
(d) Sheepishly let the conniving Brits and French turn Libya upside down
(e) Passively let the Brits and French foment chaos in Syria (leading the the deaths of thousands of innocent minority civilians)
(f) Let the German BND/EU fascistocrats (Brussels) destabilized and implode Ukraine and start an unprovoked proxy war with Russia that even Bubba Bush backed away from (look at the US climb down after the Georgian War: no sanctions on Russia, a shutdown of the operation)
(g) Let the most incompetent and unstable State Dept teams in US history run wild (Arab Spring and the Neocon run war-crimes in Ukraine)
(h) Fomenting coups across the Arab world to bring the Muslim Brotherhood to power (i.e. allowing Hitlery Clinton play wild)
(i) Expanded mass-surveillance to an unprecedented level that even Bubba Bush didn’t allow.
(j) Creation of the fake / manufactured Death-Squad group called ISIL/Daesh.
Don’t you see a trend here?
Based on the last 3 presidents, the next one is projected to be even worse, and people will ironically/grudgingly admit the Obama was better.
Let me correct some of the points that you have made:
(d) … aggressively pursued the bombing of Libya, abused his position as the commander-in-chief to turn the U.S. military into his personal expeditionary force, “leading from behind”, while encouraging the Frogeaters and the Brits to position themselves in the vanguard;
(e) … has been actively fomenting the chaos in Syria (in fact, ever since the end of the French mandate, with a brief pause between the inside job of 2001-11-09 and the invasion of Iraq in 2003), this time first with the U.S. ambassador to Syria Robert Stephen Ford attempting to foment riots, meeting “opposition figures” and handing them bags of money, then by arming, training and sending “opposition fighters” to attack the Syrian government, which fulfils the legal definition of U.S. aggression against Syria;
(f) … and the armed coup in Ukraine was also masterminded in Fashington (5*10^9 USD for a “regime change” in Kiev; Nuland’s cookies for the protesters in violation of the Vienna convention on diplomatic relations; “fuck the EU”), with the Weimar Triangle and their brokered “agreement” (which no one wished to remember the day after) serving as a mere ploy.
Mats, to understand Obama, just peruse the Chicago Jewish News, October 24, 2008, the article ‘Obama and the Jews’ by Pauline Dubkin Yearwood. As one worthy interviewed, Abner Mikvah, insouciantly asserted, people think of Obama as the first black President, but in reality he is the first Jewish President. Mikvah was a Congressman, judge and Bill Clinton apparatchik.Then contemplate Obama’s service to that Jewish cottage industry, Wall Street, his appointment of so very many Jews to the upper echelons of his regime, particularly Treasury and Justice, that it is hard to find a goy, and his sterling work in carrying out the Oded Yinon Zionist Plan for the Middle East in destroying Iraq, Syria and Libya and creating Daash, and you have one very loyal ‘House Negro’, as Malcolm X would have called him, indeed.
Red Ryder,
Identify your political philosophy.
Your concluding sentence: “For all of the people bashing Obama, it’s only going to get worse after the next fake election. I’m no fan of Obama, but I think you’ll find it extremely ironic when you look back and find yourself saying: “Obama was better.”” stinks suspiciously of an attempt to rescue the upcoming 2016 American/Zionist electoral Circus.
“For all the people bashing Obama” Say what? Obomber is a Hollywood actor who serves the American Oligarchs. “Bashing” implies unfairly attacking. Obomber has never been bashed; Hell, he’s hardly been criticized, not by the Republican gang, nor by the so-called democrat gang ‘progressives,’ Warren and Sanders. Hell, my people (check my name), awarded Hollywood Obomber the Nobel Peace Prize.
*Obomber, one of the greatest imperialist stooges and terrorist mass murderers in history, has been all but untouched by criticism from any source.
1. For 7 years, Obomber has functioned as a cover for the unconstitutional American Government.
2. Obomber has supported the imperialist re-colonization of the African continent, and is partly responsible for the murder of more Africans than any previous American President, or so-called President.
3. Obomber has perpetrated a great hoax upon the American citizenry, including African Americans, by his portrayal of (being) a legitimate first constitutional Black President.
4. Obomber has served to revive the moribund American electoral farce and pretense of democracy, and to pave the way for The Anointed One (H. Clinton) to assume the mantle of President.
5. Obomber is not “better” than any other of the bought political servants of the Oligarchs, but far worse, and far more evil. The effectiveness of his crimes far exceeds those of the Republican gang leaders. And it is vital for all Partisans to understand that.
Your sectarianism is exposed to all with your (on cue), attack on the approved punching bag, Donald Trump. Trump is placed as a convenient (republican gang member) punching bag to be attacked, as was Ms. Palin. How happy the Democrat sect gang members are if they can deflect criticism away from the infinitely more evil, (and actively participating in imperialist butchery throughout this planet), Hollywood Obomber, and Clinton-2, wife of the butcher of Serbia, not to mention Democrats Nuland and Kerry.
Try effectively opposing a key Democrat gang member some time, and prove me wrong.
For the Democratic Republics!
IMAGINE
Peter,
I’m sorry you misread my intent but I’m only trying to point out that next US President is likely to be worse than Obama (who despite his alleged flaws backed-down and has dragged his feet in key confrontations; we don’t know what constraints the employee known as the US President has only him)
And yes, Obama maybe a disappointment to many people, but I keep thinking about how we thought no-one could be worse than:

(a) was goaded into bombing and destroying Yugoslavia by his benefactors,
(b) conveniently ignored the French/Belgian instigated genocide in Rwanda while claiming to be the 1st “black” president

Don’t you see a trend here?
Based on the last 3 presidents, the next one is projected to be even worse, and people will ironically/grudgingly admit the Obama was better just like many are saying the no-one is worse than Obama right now. Saying no-one is worse, implies G.W. Bush was better.
Peter Antonsen, Chomsky and Nader both warned that Uncle Obama was a fraud. He was a clever tactic by the elite, to continue business-as-usual behind a black-face facade, doing exactly the same arrogant, aggressive, bullying, murdering stuff as his two predecessors (and all US Thugs-in-Chief), while conning the Hope Fiend dupes. He was also very generous to the Jewish elite, which is always touching, they being so weak, powerless and uninterested in politics. But his greatest task was to turn the Congress and White House over to the Republicans, by so disillusioning the ‘Hopey/Dopey’ crowd that they would abstain from voting, preferably forever. The 2010 and 2014 Congressional elections were triumphs of this strategy, the 2014 turn-out the lowest sine the war-time election in 1942. Now he must crown his service by delivering the Presidency to some Republican, then it’s off to Wall Street for his reward.
If the portions of the above missive that I critiqued were written by Grey Kracken, then I owe Red Ryder an apology, and my arguments are directed at Grey Kracken.
I mistook the signature “@Red Ryder” to indicate he had written the comments on Obama. I see now that the signature above is grey Kracken, – and that it is Grey Kracken’s missive which I take issue with.
Apologies.
On Trump ad Russia, do you have a link? I have to see this for myself.

Enjoy.
re: Hezbollah. Thanks for the concise statement by Nazrallah. What he was able to tell us was clear, forthright and inspiring. It is interesting to note as the world continues its polarization and the sides begin to really hunker down that those who are coming from dubious origins bluster, rant, bully, lie and manipulate. Those who are certain and determined are beginning to use much less rhetoric and despite the secrecy necessary in times of war are expressing themselves firmly and confidently. Maybe it is my imagination but it is a good sign. Or maybe it is due to the excellent editing by Saker etc.
Thanks. either way.
I don’t think it’s your imagination. I think we are all beginning to recognize that facts on the ground have always spoken in a certain voice, even when the noise all around was deafening. And everything that was not a true fact on the ground was free to speak in whatever fanciful words it wished, free to steal words from the truth, and pretend to be real.
But now the trolls are being routed, and the soldiers of the theater are being killed by the soldiers of the real. And the holy voices of the good causes are all that remain when the liars fall silent.
In the words of Nasrallah, as they apply to victory in all the causes of goodness that any of us here may pursue:
May we all act, and achieve victory, in this way.
teranam 13, the sheer hysteria of the hatred and lies flowing out of the Cloaca Maxima that is the Western MSM is becoming pathological. Russia is on the back-burner a bit, and China is getting the full hate attack. This is probably a little easier for the Rightwing vermin, because their innate racism can be given its head, but the puerility, viciousness and disinhibition speaks to me of scum who are very, very, worried that their beloved West, God’s ‘Chosen People’, the Exceptional and Indispensable West, is crumbling into the primordial ooze from which it emerged, driven down by elite psychopathy, evidenced by insatiable greed, gigantic inequality, social savagery and raw hatred of the lower ranks, filthy, vulgar ‘culture’ and mass entertainment, crumbling infrastructure, prisons bulging with inmates and police death-squads killing at will and with near total impunity. The Real Evil Empire can hear the forces of Justice and Retribution for 500 years of bloody exploitation hurrying near, and it has them shit-scared, which makes them deadly dangerous.
Hezbollah has to watch out for the IDF attacking South Lebanon.
They have weakened their defenses in order to protect the Syrian borderlands. Israel could make a move to crush those villages near the Israeli border.
Clearly, from the repeated video reports of Nasrallah for the last few weeks, Lebanon is in trouble from ISIS and the terrorists of AQ. The losses of manpower in Syria are a concern even if Israel does not attack.
Iran has been very slow to insert manpower, though I read Quds force manpower is coming.
Thanks dear Saker, fantastic news.
I see Kerry is back onto the chlorine gas narrative so I guess we can expect the US to come up with enough “evidence” to put together a coalition of the killing if Syria looks like it is winning the fight.
Official US rhetoric over the SCS has quietened down but the “media” is predicting violence in Hong Kong.
Never ending. They give up the attack on one point for a bit and immediately attack somewhere else.
as soon as syria start winning in serious way enough to finish the war then putin will agree to us/uk orchestrated UNO resolutiont o send an observer for peace. as happened with novorussia and also with syria before kofi aman was sent to syria.

Statement of Babylon Unit’s Christian leader in Imam Ali Brigades (#PMU)
This 1min video is doing the rounds, thought it would be of interest
So lemme get this straight, the video that you provided shows an Iraqi Christian Assyrian military commander who is part of a Shia “militia”. This Christian commander is openly pledging to take-out Daesh (ISIL) “pigs”. On top of that, he states that once their own Iraqi church’s are liberated, his Christian unit of the Shia ‘militia’ plans to go into Syria to help the Syrians take-out Daesh (ISIL) “pigs”.
Wow, that was very educational. If we believed all the rhetoric against Muslims (especially against the Shia), this kind of scenario would be portrayed as impossible. Things aren’t as black and white as the Neo-con-artist MSM appears to make it.
This group’s progress against the ISIL butchers will be worth following –> Interesting Video, thanks.
As I have said before, I have great admiration for Hezbollah and Nasrallah.
They are once again showing what they r capable of in the Qalamoun.
Although I understand and agree that Hezbollah could not stand idle while the wahabists destroyed Syria and infiltrated into Lebanon, I do fear the cowardly israeli scum may attempt some massive attack on Hezbollah, taking advantage of the fact Hezb is heavily engaged against the takfiris.
I’m sure hezbollah have factored the zionists in and must have been preparing accordingly, still, given the fact hezbollahs military wing is relatively small and has a small population base – 27% of Lebanons 4.5 million – i do worry it could become overstretched.
An iranian traitor, writing for the zio rag huffington post, talks about a possible israeli attack:
