On the same day as the speech by the leader of the Lebanese Shiite guerrilla Hassan Nasrallah (HN) and the celebration of the two momentous summits of the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Riyadh, the speechless Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant (YG) threatened Hezbollah not to open a new front – to rescue the besieged Palestinian Sunni guerrilla Hamas – since what we can do in Gaza (megasic!), we can do in Beirut
when we do not yet have 10 percent (mega-sic!) of the power of the Israeli army in Gaza
(https://bit.ly/3QxHHSg), where Israel has launched the equivalent of of the Hiroshima bombs
(https://bit.ly/47mstpQ) without having messed up its clandestine supply of 300 (sic) nuclear bombs, according to former President Carter’s assessments 12 years ago (https://bit.ly/3SEJGqm).
The pugnacious YG has referred to the Sunni Palestinians of Hamas as human animals
(https://bit.ly/46Uy4ne) than the dystopian and anachronistic hermeneutics of the Talmud – interpretation of the Old Testament (https://bit.ly/3QUYEqX)– defines the non-jews
as Goyim
that means cattle
o beasts
(https://bit.ly/3QCpnqU). Will the YG paleobiblical define the Shia Lebanese, of Semitic origin, in the same dehumanized way?
The leader of Hezbollah does not seek to interfere in Syria – where Russia enjoys a legal presence and the United States illegally occupies its oil fields – nor to raise the bid to a regional escalation, but only to maintain a pressure front
on the cross-border with Israel when the focus of the battle is on Gaza.
HN urged the two Arab and Islamic summits in Saudi Arabia to put pressure on the United States
Israel’s main ally, to obtain a pressing ceasefire, without forgetting to thank the material, military and financial support from Iran
that is not directly involved (sic) in any of the fronts of the resistance axis
(https://bit.ly/3sluDaB).
The two summits of the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) – of 57 countries; 1.8 billion parishioners; and a GDP of purchasing power of 27.95 trillion dollars! –were scheduled separately in Riyadh (https://bit.ly/3uhprVs) and were finally unified into one due to the exceptional circumstances in the Gaza Strip in Palestine
(https://bit.ly/49vchEE). The Arab League of 22 countries has a population of 463 million (2022 data), a nominal GDP of 3.4 trillion dollars.
The Egyptian newspaper Ahram, which gave much importance to the reconciliation of President Sisi with his counterpart the Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi (ER), comments on the unequivocal condemnation of the joint double summit, but that fails to take any possible measure to stop Israeli aggression or mitigate the ongoing humanitarian crisis
(https://bit.ly/47klIoy). Saudi multimedia also gave much importance to the visit of the Iranian president ER (https://bit.ly/3skmvXS), recently reconciled with Crown Prince Mohamed Bin Salmán (https://bit.ly/40yoGn6).
The six petromonarchies of the Gulf did not want to go that far to boycott oil supplies to the West (https://bit.ly/3Qyk1gj), as Iran wishes, nor did Turkey specify the measures to prevent the supply of hydrocarbons from Azerbaijan – a member of the OIC – to Israel and passing through its territory. The same can be said of OIC member Nigeria and other oil-producing Arab and Islamic countries.
In my opinion, the most relevant thing about the double Arab-Islamic summit was its call for a nuclear weapons-free zone throughout the Middle East.
Shakespearian dilemma of Hezbollah and the Arab and Islamic worlds: either stop the infanticide in Gaza or self-immolate in the face of inflamed public opinion over the infanticide in Gaza. The Maximum Movement of liberation, recovery and emancipation of the 21st century is the creation of the legitimate Palestinian State. There global humanism and the future of civilizations are condensed. There is no escape.
