PNN – America, which considers Hezbollah not only a security and existential threat to Israel, but also a great danger to its own interests in the region, is very worried about the expansion of the war between the Lebanese resistance and the Zionist army, and is afraid of Hezbollah more than other fronts.
According to the International group of Pakistan News Network, at the beginning of the Battle of al-Aqsa Storm on October 7, 2023, when American ships, fighters and aircraft carriers moved towards the eastern Mediterranean, there was a prevailing trend among analysts that the United States was preparing to carry out operations in support of the Zionist regime.
How did Hezbollah mess up America’s calculations in the Gaza war?
But gradually such analyzes disappeared; Because it became clear that with these measures, the US is seeking to reassure the Zionists to concentrate only on the Gaza front and to rest assured that another front against Israel will not be opened, especially from southern Lebanon. In fact, the US is looking for a preventive measure to protect the Zionist regime against the threat of other resistance fronts.
While Hezbollah’s operations against the Zionist positions on the border of Lebanon and the depth of the northern front of occupied Palestine have entered an advanced stage and, according to Zionist and American sources, have caused more than 200,000 Zionist settlers to flee from this area, the Americans have put in their utmost effort to at least prevent further expansion of the war between the Lebanese resistance and the Zionist army.
Why is America so afraid of Hezbollah and its attacks against Israel?
The United States knows very well that Hizbollah has entered the battle with the Zionist occupiers as a support front for Gaza. This means that the Lebanese resistance, despite the advanced and rapid operations it carries out against the Israeli positions, has not yet displayed a large part of its main power. The Americans saw that in the July 2006 war, Hezbollah, which had just emerged from the 2000 war with the Zionists and was not expected to have the right conditions to enter a new war, surprised the Israelis and inflicted a humiliating and historic defeat on them. Until then, the Zionists did not dare to think about a new war with Lebanon.
Washington’s fear of Hezbollah’s hidden power
Therefore, America is more concerned about the current developments in the south of Lebanon and the losses that the Israelis are suffering today in the north of the occupied territories, it is more concerned about the hidden power of Hezbollah, which has not yet been revealed, and for this reason, Washington is trying to prevent the spread of war between the Lebanese resistance and the army.
In fact, Hezbollah carries out its operations within the framework of the enemy’s surprise, and Washington and Tel Aviv cannot predict the limits of these operations, but in the meantime, the positions adopted by Seyed “Hasan Nasrallah”, the Secretary General of Hezbollah in his recent speeches, are more than America and Israel.
Nightmare of “no ceiling” war for America and Israel
In his speech two weeks ago, Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah spoke about the war “without a ceiling” and without consideration, and in his recent speech, he emphasized it again; This means that the Islamic resistance of Lebanon adheres to the rules of conflict in its daily operations against Zionist positions. But if the occupiers intend to intensify the aggression and not stop the war against Gaza, Hezbollah will no longer respect any red line or ceiling in attacking the enemy.
Recently, the Israeli army reported that 2,000 rockets were fired from Lebanon at Israeli positions in 100 days. The firing of this number of rockets from Lebanon towards the targets of the Zionist regime within 100 days, first of all, shows how serious Hezbollah is in supporting Gaza and its resistance, and secondly, it shows Hezbollah’s firepower, so the Americans and Israelis are worried that if it leads to a massive war with the Lebanese resistance, at what level will Hezbollah’s operations be?
Washington’s efforts to stop Hezbollah’s operations
Accordingly, in the framework of an operational plan, Western and American delegations are constantly traveling to Beirut and using methods of persuasion and intimidation to force Lebanon to retreat against the aggression of the Zionist regime; Because they know that a large-scale war in the northern front of occupied Palestine will affect the entire interests of the West and America in the region.
Of course, the Americans have not forgotten the words of Seyed Hassan Nasrallah, who directly threatened Washington; Where the Secretary General of Hezbollah said to the Americans in his first speech after the Al-Aqsa storm in early November 2023: “In the event of any regional war, your interests and soldiers will be sacrificed and you will be the biggest loser.”
How did Seyed Hassan Nasrallah confuse America?
Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah also explained precisely how the resistance battle against the Israelis is fundamentally linked to the American presence in the region. Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah emphasized in his penultimate speech in January that the events of the Al-Aqsa storm are an opportunity to liberate the entire region from the evil of American occupation.
In this regard, it can be said that America’s fear of Hezbollah is not only related to Israel’s security; Rather, it is related to Lebanon’s resistance strategy and its leadership in the entire region, as Israel is actually America’s main base in the region, and therefore, if Hezbollah starts a large-scale war against this regime, there is no guarantee that America’s interests in the region will be safe; As Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah addressed the Americans and Zionists with his usual self-confidence and ironic tone in his Sunday night speech in response to the American threats of the Israeli army’s attack on Lebanon: “Welcome!”
In other words, the issue is beyond Israel and its interests, and the main issue is America and its interests in the region, and this factor has caused Americans to fear Hezbollah. In the recent reports prepared by American security circles, it has been emphasized that Israel should not provoke Hezbollah to enter a large-scale war.
Coordination of the resistance axis in support of Gaza
So the Americans have come to the conclusion that maybe they can save Israel on the Gaza front in a way, but when it leads to a multi-front war, the most important front of which is Hezbollah, it will no longer be a way to save Tel Aviv, and worst of all, America is forced to directly protect to act on their interests and bases in the region.
