28) Nasrallah: Iran never asked of anything from the Palestinians. Yes, it would ask them to resist and fight for their land, but this is for their own benefit, it's their interest and cause. But they never asked for anything for Iran.

34) Nasrallah: ISIS was at the time an American creation, and was backed by regional countries, and if you look at Gulf media, they were talking about the glorious revolution being started by ISIS.
35) Nasrallah: Soleimani arrived in Baghdad, and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis was one of the central commanders in this great war against ISIS.
36) Nasrallah: When al-Muhandis was martyred, he was engaged in operations to clean up Iraq from ISIS, because ISIS was trying to take advantage of recent events in Iraq to have a resurgence.
37) Nasrallah: Had ISIS not been defeated in Iraq, then Syria would have been lost. Jordan would have been in danger. Gulf states, which backed ISIS, would have been in danger, so would Turkey.

39) Nasrallah: ISIS still has remnants, all the way to Nigeria. What do we hear of ISIS expect murder and death, against the Mosques of Muslims and Churches of Christians? These are parts of the lies @realDonaldTrump keeps saying.
40) Nasrallah: Now, some of the repercussions of the great martyrdom of Soleimani and Muhandis.
41) Nasrallah: A)It reunited Iraqis to confront what is being prepared against them. B) The million-person funeral processions for Soleimani in Iran, in addition for the protests.
42) Nasrallah: We always used to say Khomeini's funeral was unique in the history of humanity, since God created Adam.
43) Nasrallah: This was both in numbers and grief and emotion. Now, Soleimani's funeral brought out 5 million? 7 million? It is unprecedented since Khomeini's funeral.

44) Nasrallah: This funeral has been unprecedented in history, just as the Iranian people are incomparable on earth. Show me another people that would go through so much effort to mourn their leader?
45) Nasrallah: This was entirely willing. You might be able to bring people out to the streets, but how can you make them show grief? How can you force them to cry?
46) Nasrallah: I read high-ranking American officials saying that Soleimani's funeral terrified @realDonaldTrump and his administration.
47) Nasrallah: The great crowds in Khuzestan also sent a very important message, particularly to the Gulf States and their American masters.
48) Nasrallah: Soleimani's funeral constituted a second Islamic revolution in Iran, and I think it put the Americans and others who are betting on internal Iranian dissent in great despair.

49) Nasrallah: So these funerals prove that the blood of Soleimani reinvigorated the Iranian regime, granting it new strength, which is particularly important at this time, in light of the pressure by the American administration.
50) Nasrallah: There is an int'l media effort to ridicule everything called jihad, mujahid, Resistance, etc. Even in Lebanon.
51) Nasrallah: Soleimani could have stayed at home with his family and minded his business and lived a comfortable life, instead he spent his life on the frontlines. This is the culture Iran gives us.
52) Nasrallah: What culture to the Americans bring us? That each country should look after its own, and what does Lebanon have to do with Palestine? And what does each person have to do with the other?

53) Nasrallah: Another important outcome of Soleimani's assassination is that it showed the true face of America to the region again. Usually there are people who say USA is source of security and stability in the region.
54) Nasrallah: This did away with that, and refocused region on America's crimes, and restored US to its rightful place as our prime enemy, the Great Satan.
55) Nasrallah: This understanding, of America as our prime enemy, must be restored to the conscience of the region's peoples.
56)Nasrallah: America, the Great Satan, is responsible for Israel and all its crimes against the Palestinian people.
57) Nasrallah: America built ISIS to destroy our countries, our cultures, history, and our future. Every ISIS bombing against a mosque or church, it must be called "Made in USA." We must never forget this, that America is our true enemy.
58) Nasrallah: Any people discussing its national security threats, if they don't list the USA as their #1 threat, then they don't know what they're talking about. They're ignorant or lying.

59) Nasrallah: Israel is a mere tool, a forward base of the United States. But the United States is the enemy, which steals our region;s resources.
60)Nasrallah: I want to return to the matter of Just Retribution. It is not one operation - it is a path, a path of action that will lead to the expulsion of the United States from the Middle East. Or as leader Khamenei calls it, Western Asia.
61) Nasrallah: The strike on Ain al-Assad is not the end. It is a slap, but the first step in this long path of response to the United States, which will lead to the end of the American military presence in our region.
62) Nasrallah: I want to discuss this "slap" - when IRGC missile force struck Ain al-Assad, which was main target. Erbil was just a missile or two.
63) Nasrallah: By US SecDef admission, these missiles reached their targets.

65) Nasrallah: This strike demonstrates the indescribable bravery of the Iranian gov't and people. Who are you striking? A US army base, this is something that hasn't happened since end of WWII.
66) Nasrallah: We're talking about a state with visible targets targeting America. Not an organization. The [1983] Marine Barracks Bombing happened.
67) Nasrallah: Who else on earth dares to target the United States? @realDonaldTrump made his threats, w/52 Iranian sites, but then he did nothing.
68) Nasrallah: This strike also revealed Iran's military strength.
69) Nasrallah: These missiles were Iranian made, not purchased w/billions from the US from the money of Iranian people. The officers were Iranian, and weren't rented from the US, unlike some regional countries. Missiles hit their targets accurately, 11 - per US SecDef - hit base.
70) Nasrallah: This means all US bases in the region are in Iranian missile crosshairs. And Iran has even more precise missiles, but is waiting to use them.
71) Nasrallah: This is message to all who conspire w/US against Iran, to the Zionist Entity who thought to play w/Iran, and @netanyahu who thought to conduct airstrikes against Iran, but this idiot didn't know where he was taking his entity.
72) Nasrallah: When the Israelis hear threats of Iranian leaders, they should take it seriously. Because the missiles might have struck Ain al-Assad, but the mourning over them was in Tel Aviv.
73) Nasrallah: Were there casualties? Aren't there? These are matters that time will show.
74) Nasrallah: Whether there were casualties or not, this was a great military accomplishment.
75) Nasrallah: The Americans have been thrown off kilter in the past few days. This is what Iran has accomplished, and now Israelis are seriously talking about Trump withdrawing from region.
76) Nasrallah: Now Americans are celebrating no casualties. Who are you, you are the United States, and your soldiers hid in fear from the missiles of an identifiable country.

77) Nasrallah: The American military leadership lined up behind @realDonaldTrump day after strike. Look at their faces. Did their faces show victory? A United States that is hegemonic and victorious?
78) Nasrallah: Even @realDonaldTrump's speech addressed a different matter, that he would not let Iran get a nuclear weapon. But Iran doesn't want a nuclear weapon.
79) Nasrallah: When strike was happening, @realDonaldTrump's military advisers were telling him that Iran would target all US bases in the region, Israel - per its threats - and that US didn't have military capacity to withstand this.

81) Nasrallah: He said he wanted to cooperate against ISIS. This hypocrite who killed Soleimani, the man fighting ISIS. He said he wished the Iranian people well, this man who is starving them w/ sanctions.

85) Nasrallah: Now, the rest of the path. 1) Iraq: Iraq is the first country concerned w/responding to this crime, because it happened in Iraq, and because it targeted Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, a great Iraqi commander, and because Soleimani defended Iraq.

86) Nasrallah: I ask Masoud Barazani to thank Soleimani for his efforts in defending Erbil and Kurdistan Region, because Soleimani was the only one to respond to your call. Soleimani and with him men from Hezbollah went to Erbil.
87) Nasrallah: Barazani was shaking from fear, but Soleimani and the brothers from Hezbollah helped you repulse this unprecedented threat; and now you must repay this good by being part of the effort to expel the Americans from Iraq and the region.
88) Nasrallah: 2) Rest of the path of the Resistance Axis must begin its operations. We are serious, and our goal is to expel the United States from the region. This is a long-term goal.
89) Nasrallah: In coming days and weeks, US must leave this region. The alternative to their leaving alive is to leave dead, in coffins. This is an absolute decision in the Resistance Axis. It is a matter of time that we won't give up on.
