Ibrahim al-Moussawi, a member of Lebanon’s parliament and a spokesman for the terror group Hezbollah, said Monday that the Hamas attack on Israel is a “victory” over an “arrogant Western system.”

During a political meeting of Hezbollah’s public relations branch in Lebanon, al-Moussawi said the operation, which killed hundreds of Israeli civilians, is not “a victory over the Zionist enemy only, but rather a victory over the arrogant Western system that supports it, led by the United States of America,” according to the National News Agency of Lebanon

 

Al-Moussawi added that he considered the Hamas attack to be a “rehearsal” for future strikes against Israel by terrorist organizations. “Israel will be destroyed at the hands of honorable resistance fighters,” he added.
