HEZBOLLAH SUPPORTS HAMAS CALL FOR “NEW INTIFADA” AGAINST ISRAEL


Hezbollah Supports Hamas Call For “New Intifada” Against Israel
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said during a televised speech on Thursday, that Hezbollah supports the Palestinian Hamas Movement call for a “new Intifada” against Israel in Palestine. The Intifada was declared in protest to a decision of US president Donald Trump to recognize the city of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
Nasrallah called on the Arab League and the Islamic world to provide a political, media, financial and even military support for the Palestinian people so they can launch the “new Intifada” against Israel.
“The most important response would be a Palestinian uprising and an Islamic summit that would declare Jerusalem as the eternal capital of Palestine … We support the call for a new Palestinian intifada [uprising] and escalating the resistance which is the biggest, most important and gravest response to the American decision,” Nasrallah said during his speech, according to the Lebanese Naharnet TV.
Moreover, Nasrallah questioned the fate of the Palestinians who live now in Jerusalem after it becomes the capital of Israel, and even the fate of the Lebanese Shebaa farms, and the Syrian Golan Heights that the US does not recognize as part of Israel as for now.
“What will be the fate of the Palestinian residents in Jerusalem? What will be the fate of the Palestinian properties in Jerusalem? Will they be appropriated or demolished?” Nasrallah said.
The Hezbollah leader said that Trump’s decision should be a “motive” for everyone to hold the responsibility and ignore the voices that will say soon that what happened is “not important”. Nasrallah also doubted the credibility of Israel and the US.
“The leaders of the Zionist entity [Israel] don’t respect the international resolutions, and don’t respect the international  conventions or treaties … The Zionists don’t even respect the agreement that they signed, nor the international will, or the what the Arab, European countries, Russia, China or Latin America say, and what the Zionists mainly care about is what America says” Nasrallah said according to the Lebanese al-Manar TV
The Nasrallah statement will likely boost the Hamas Movement confidence to start a large wave of protests all over the Palestinian areas on Friday. Such large protests could increase the pressure on the US, Israel and even the Palestinian government.

Why States Still Use Barrel Bombs

Smoke ascends after a Syrian military helicopter allegedly dropped a barrel bomb over the city of Daraya on Jan. 31.(FADI DIRANI/AFP/Getty Images) Summary Barrel bombs are not especially effective weapons. They are often poorly constructed; they fail to detonate more often than other devices constructed for a similar purpose; and their lack of precision means they can have a disproportionate effect on civilian populations. However, combatants continue to use barrel bombs in conflicts, including in recent and ongoing conflicts in Africa and the Middle East, and they are ideally suited to the requirements of resource-poor states. Analysis Barrel bombs are improvised devices that contain explosive filling and shrapnel packed into a container, often in a cylindrical shape such as a barrel. The devices continue to be dropped on towns all over Syria . Indeed, there have been several documented cases of their use in Iraq over the past months, and residents of the city of Mosul, which was re...

Russia Looks East for New Oil Markets

Click to Enlarge In the final years of the Soviet Union, Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev began orienting his foreign policy toward Asia in response to a rising Japan. Putin has also piloted a much-touted pivot to Asia, coinciding with renewed U.S. interest in the area. A good expression of intent was Russia's hosting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in 2012 in Vladivostok, near Russia's borders with China and North Korea. Although its efforts in Asia have been limited by more direct interests in Russia's periphery and in Europe, Moscow recently has been able to look more to the east. Part of this renewed interest involves finding new export markets for Russian hydrocarbons. Russia's economy relies on energy exports, particularly crude oil and natural gas exported via pipeline to the West. However, Western Europe is diversifying its energy sources as new supplies come online out of a desire to reduce its dependence on Russian energy supplies . This has ...
