Nasrallah: Hezbollah will 'deal with Cyprus as a warring party'
[NEWARAB] Head of Hezbollah His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah...The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...> threatened in a Wednesday speech to treat Cyprus "as if it is a party to the war" with Israel if it allowed the latter to use its airports and harbours. Nasrallah drew attention to the fact that the Israeli army conducts drills in Cyprus, as well as is in discussions with the Cypriot government to use its airports and harbours in the event of a war with Leb  ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...The Israeli army has conducted training drills in the Trodos mountains of Cyprus since 2017, in part to simulate an invasion of Lebanon, given the similar topography of the two areas.
