🔴Important Points of Syed Hassan Nasrallah Speech Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: I will not be talking about any of those topics today, but only about the recent disaster that happened Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: We stand before an incident that left a huge impact on the humanitarian scale as well as a huge economic effect since this port was the economic lifeline of Lebanon. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: I send condolences to the families of the martyrs. I ask Allah to grant their families patience and tranquility. I pray the injured are healed soon and that everyone is granted patience to endure those difficult times. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: What is notable is that people from all sects were affected by this incident. Beirut is a city of all sects and religions. Millions were harmed by this incident as more than half of Lebanon\\\\\\\'s population resides in Beirut. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: This is proof of the deep humanitarian, nationalistic, and moral values that our people have, from all sects and regions in the country. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: People were quick to rush to donate blood, volunteer in cleaning the streets, saving those under the rubble, offer their homes for the ones who lost theirs... everyone was compassionate and empathetic towards each other. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Hezbollah reassures its readiness to help in every way needed and to help in any field we are needed in.. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Several countries have sent aid and sent delegations to Lebanon, most notably the French president\\\\\\\'s visit. We see every visit and any aid from any nation to Lebanon as positive and prefer to remain optimistic in our stance and look at the bright side. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The first 2 scenes were positive, but the 3rd isn\\\\\\\'t so much so. In every crisis, people put their differences aside and cooperate to rise after the disaster. Political statements usually take a couple of days, but this is not what happened here. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: From the first hour after the explosion, leaders of political parties and several media outlets were quick to share their narrative. The fire in the port was still raging and people still hadn\\\\\\\'t known what happened at the time... Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The first narration to be shared was that what caused the explosion was a warehouse containing weapons for Hezbollah. Why? To tell the people of Beirut and Lebanon that the one who killed you, hurt you, terrified your children...is Hezbollah. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: They did not even wait to be sure whether this was an accident or a planned attack. We were forced to stand in the position of accusations on top of grieving the incident that took place. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: I firmly and assertively deny that Hezbollah has a single missile, rifle, bullet or anything at the port. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: There was another narrative that Hezbollah was responsible over the Beirut port. This is not true. Some would ask, does that mean that Hezbollah knows more about the Haifa port than the Beirut port? Yes. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The results of the investigations will reveal the truth. I ask the Lebanese people to hold accountable every media channel pushing for propaganda. Where are they taking the country with those claims they are making? What are they trying to do? Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The results of the investigations will reveal the truth. I ask the Lebanese people to hold accountable every media channel pushing for propaganda. Where are they taking the country with those claims they are making? What are they trying to do? Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Every party that had a problem with the president, the government, or even us, took advantage of the incident to attack. I will not address this because now is the time to heal our wounds and allow people to grieve. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The investigations should be very transparent and objective. The truth shall prevail. The investigations should not take the route of the typical Lebanese investigations where the criminal ends up protected.. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Every governmental institution needs to hold its responsibility in the investigations; the army, government, parliament, judiciary... The ones responsible, whether they come from a single sect or several ones, should all be held accountable. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Is there any hope to establish a decent state in Lebanon with the current political class? I don\\\\\\\'t want to break anyone\\\\\\\'s morale, but no, there is no hope with this current class. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Even if this was a planned attack, even if it was a missile, drone, etc., the fact that the ammonium nitrate was stored at the port in this manner for 6 years means that a huge portion of the blame is on the government and political class. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: They are all to blame, ourselves included, since we were not able to do anything to remove those substances from the port. Everyone responsible needs to be held accountable and punished! Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: This catastrophe cannot and will never be forgotten. We\\\\\\\'ve lost so many lives. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: Those who are taking advantage of this disaster for their own political gain against us, they should know that, as they\\\\\\\'ve always failed, they will fail again and again.. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: To everyone who panicked and the people of the Resistance who thought that this was a plot against us and that it would ignite any tension, nothing will happen inshallah. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The international aid is something Lebanon needs to take advantage of so that we may prevail from this disaster stronger and more victorious. Sayyed Hassan #Nasrallah: The Resistance, in its national and regional role and its strength and people\\\\\\\'s support, is stronger than to be defeated by the liars who have always created strife and pushed for a civil war thinking they would defeat the Resistance.
