Hezbollah’s victory against Zionist powers

As Lebanon stood powerless before the evil of Israel, a group of men came together to oppose the rise of tyranny, to prevent Zionists form advancing any further into Lebanon: the Hezbollah was born.

Following decades of humiliation and fear, Lebanon’s pride was reborn in the Hezbollah; the nation has finally found its heroes.

But if Hezbollah’s victories have been many and grand, the threat which Israel poses remains very real indeed. 

This Sunday Lebanon will gather to celebrate the 14th anniversary of Liberation Day, a day which still echoes from Lebanon and Palestine’s victory cries. 

On May 22, 2000, the Israeli regime began to pull out its forces from south Lebanon and the Western Bekaa area after more than two decades of occupation. During the next three days, the regime increased the speed of withdrawal as they came under the fire of Hezbollah’s resistance movement. 

The liberation was seen by all Lebanese as a proof of years of popular resistance against Israeli occupation which began in 1978. 
 
Hezbollah’s protracted war of attrition against Israeli occupiers had put Israeli authorities under great pressure to leave Lebanon. 
 
People consider May 25 as a beginning of dramatic changes in the region. 
 
The Lebanese have commemorated the day as a national holiday and seen it as a transformation that changed the regional equations for good, and put an end to the invincibility myth of the Israeli army. 

Iranian FM Mohammad Javad Zarif sent a cable to his Lebanese counterpart Jebran Bassil and another to Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah to congratulate them on the occasion of Liberation Day.

"This is a historical victory that was achieved as a result of cohesion between the Lebanese of all sects and political parties, and thanks to the efforts of the resistance's heroes,” Zarif said in the letter to Bassil.

He continued: “It is a turning point in Lebanon's modern history which promises more victories and achievements against the occupying Zionist entity.”

And in his letter to Nasrallah, the Iranian FM considered that this “historic saga will keep reminding people of the Lebanese and the fighters' sacrifices, especially of those who are keen on preserving the resistance."
