Israeli Assassination of Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah 'Shocked All of Lebanon.' What's Next?

Israel is expanding its attacks across the Middle East, bombing more sites in Yemen and Lebanon over the weekend after carrying out a massive attack in the suburbs of Beirut on Friday that killed longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and other top commanders of the militant group. Nasrallah led Hezbollah for more than three decades and was considered one of the most powerful figures in the region. Israel likely used U.S.-made 2,000-pound bombs in Friday's attack that leveled several high-rise apartment buildings, with a death toll estimated in the hundreds. U.S. President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris both called Nasrallah's killing "a measure of justice" while saying they were against further escalation of the war. "The news really shocked all of Lebanon, both supporters and people who oppose him," says Associated Press reporter Kareem Chehayeb in Beirut, who notes about 1 million people inside Lebanon are now displaced by the fighting. "The airstrikes aren't stopping; they're continuing. And now people are anticipating a ground invasion."

One of the worst programs in history is this propaganda

[dsds]

no mention of all the people this guy killed

[williamfowler]

war is such a terrible thing, especially when it bites you back

[sharma.]

Why Syrian Muslims are celebrating death of Nasarullah 🤔🤔

[reinereine]

It's so sad that the UN can't do anything more than leave a room.

Firing missiles on Israel in solidarity with Hamas is the same as firing missiles on Israel without a solidarity with Hamas.
Israel responded. Lebanon expected that.
The plan “kill, die, cry” will not defeat Israel

[bman]

And yet there are videos of Lebanese and Syrians dancing in the streets in celebration.

The Democrats in the US are mourning the death of one of their heroes 🤦🏻‍♂️

[michaelocircan]

By the way, did Hezbollah anticipate their choice to attack Israel in support of Hamas would attract this level of suffering on their own people?

My deepest condolences to Democracy Now for losing a dear comarade

[BradPitbull]

I agree 👍 with the reporter.... America 🇺🇸 needs to stop funding wars and focus on rebuilding America 🇺🇸 and helping our own veterans living on the streets

[josephschreiber]

Hezbollah started this war by getting involved in a conflict hat didn't involve them. Now that they are getting beaten they want to call time out.

[Hermesborugerdian]

Watch democracy now call him a “moderate figure” too 🤣🤣

[drkashmedicalandlife]

Israel spoke the truth..
“Stop the missiles or you will bad badly destroyed “
The truth is can be painful…
Peace to all who strive for peace soon…

[pieterotten]

Sorry your friend kicked the bucket, lol

[YonieZukowsky]

Unlike Gazans who mostly support Hamas we find among the Lebanese many who hated Nasrallah and want Hizbollah out of and to stop interfering in their country. Many Syrians and Iranians were also not fond of Nasrallah.

[goatitisful]

This is 1 of the most biased, leftist news sources.

[lesliefish]

This site is obviously pro-Arab, and wouldn't say an honest word about Israel if you threatened them.

[Mr.BlackSanta]

So Hezbollah will be taken out in under 2 weeks? I thought they were 10 times as powerful as Hamas. You know this has Hezbollah, Yemen, and Iran totally spooked.

[vgair]

democracy now does not celebrate the death of the king of terror ?
Well, that tells me all I need to know about what this group is really about doesn't it ?
