Hizbullah Official: I Wish For A Ground War With Israel – Let’s See How They Fare Against Us

Hizbullah official Nawaf Moussawi expressed on a December 23, 2023 show on Al-Manar TV (Hizbullah-Lebanon) his desire for a ground battle with Israel. He said that he would like to see how they fare on the battleground in light of their bravado. Moussawi said that the Americans are providing Israel with support and expertise, but the U.S. should know that Hizbullah will not sit idly by if the U.S. wages war against it. He said that had the U.S. not withdrawn its USS New Jersey from the coast of Beirut in 1983, it would have been sunk by Hizbullah operatives, some of whom are still alive today.
