Excellent analysis as usual, Alon. We watched the speech live yesterday morning on Al Jazeera Arabic. Also noteworthy is Nasrallah’s superior public speaking ability. His calm demeanor. He does not raise his voice. He is in command and not fake. He is … kind and wise. He is a good leader! Let me say that again: the man is not fake. (Unlike virtually every American and Israeli politician.)

Also: Israel is the new shoebomber.

The Israeli pager, walk-ie talkie, doctor pagers, blowing up Lebanese ambulances and hospitals, etc. will have long lasting repercussions and I for one know exactly who to blame at the airport: The Israeli shoe bomber/alqaeda wannabes.

I’m afraid the US support, specifically its rabid Christian Zionist base, is a *very* long supply line for the IDF. Many have already return from the killing fields of Gaza posting videos being welcomed back to the US by their families. While the end is nigh, it’s still rivers of blood away…

Unfortunately, it is a sound analysis. I fear that it we will see this happen to the detriment of many innocent civilians on both sides.

I concur. Hezbollah's strategy is sound. Countering the Israeli propaganda will take time. Allowing Israel to look exactly like the bully it is will go a long way to doing just that.
