Has Hezbollah Abandoned Gaza?
CrossFireArabia- November 27, 2024
Bloggers are today asking that with the current ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon if Hezbollah has abandoned Gaza?
The ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah was the most prominent event on Arab social media platforms. After nearly a year of support announced by the party to the Palestinian resistance, an agreement was reached, Wednesday, with Israel to stop the fighting and war.
This announcement sparked controversy and division. Some bloggers considered Hezbollah abandoned the will of its late General Secretary Hassan Nasrallah who was killed by Israel, to support Gaza according to Al Jazeera.
Others on the other hand, saw that the party did what it could to support the people of Gaza in many ways which other countries were unable to do.
The first thing bloggers circulated was part of Nasrallah’s last speech, in which he said, “the resistance in Lebanon will not stop supporting Gaza, despite all the sacrifices it has made.”
They added the current ceasefire agreement has gone beyond the last will of Nasrallah that “the Lebanese front will not stop before the aggression on Gaza stops.”
They pointed out: “We will not deceive ourselves. Israel succeeded tonight in separating the fronts, leaving Gaza alone, and this has now become a reality. This scenario was proposed since the beginning of the war: Stopping support for Gaza and Hezbollah withdrawing from south of the Litani, which was ultimately agreed upon according to their interpretation.
One of the bloggers commented: “Today, and today only, we felt the loss of Mr. Hassan Nasrallah, who promised not to abandon supporting Gaza in its honorable struggle for human dignity and freedom, but the party’s acceptance of the truce with Israel is a great loss.”
On the other hand, there are those who saw that the party did what it had to do in supporting the resistance in Gaza and that it lost its Secretary-General and a number of its first leaders to support and back the Palestinian resistance. They added that Hezbollah did what it had to do and made great sacrifices, starting with its political and military leaders, and that in the end it is not a superpower but a resistance movement in a small country and the whole world is against it.
Others saw that Israel acquiesced to the ceasefire with Hezbollah for several reasons, the most important of which is separating the Hezbollah front from Gaza and the isolation of Hamas and that Israel’s failed in its land war in Lebanon as in Gaza despite its air superiority.
