00:00The Israeli army says it will carry on until, quote, all of our objectives are achieved.
00:06What's your understanding of what Israel is trying to achieve here?
00:10Well, from what we see, I'm not here to talk on behalf of the Israelis.
00:15However, from what we see, it's to take out Hezbollah completely.
00:20Because, unfortunately, I mean, Hezbollah dragged Lebanon into this war that snubbed the Lebanese people war.
00:30Hezbollah is achieving the objectives of Iran, of the Revolutionary Guards.
00:37And from one side and from the other side, you have the Israelis.
00:42They have their own interests, their own objectives, their own war, in a way,
00:47just to root out Hezbollah and all his military and security apparatus.
00:56Because, you know, as we see, Hezbollah, you know, taking revenge of the killing of Khamenei,
01:05started this war and starting attacking Israel.
01:09It's unfortunate, but in the matter of fact, Lebanon now is in a state of war with Israel.
01:17But it's not Lebanon as a government, but it's Hezbollah.
01:21And the Lebanese people could have been spared this war by claiming neutrality and by not getting involved in that
01:31war.
01:32It's between the United States and Israel from one side and Iran on the other side.
01:38Lebanon has nothing to do with it.
01:39But, again, Hezbollah, because he's a branch of the IGRC, and then he got involved because under the Iranian orders.
01:53And here we are, we have a thousand of displaced people, hundreds of thousands, and you have a lot of
02:01destruction.
02:02The whole south now is empty.
02:04So it's not in the benefit of Lebanon, but here we go.
02:07Hezbollah is there and fighting.
02:10And you asked me about the Israel objective, is to get maybe, you know, get Hezbollah out of the whole
02:18south Lebanon or even more.
02:20Maybe Israel would attack the Bicca.
02:23Nobody knows, actually, how the war is going to evolve.
02:27But here we are now.
02:30So hopefully, you know, it will end soon.
02:33Hopefully, Hezbollah would give his weapon to the state and give the whole decision, war decision, peace decision, I would
02:40say strategic decision, to the Lebanese state, to the Lebanese government.
02:44And the government, the Lebanese government, will take it from there.
02:48But Hezbollah is not going to do that.
02:50So unfortunately, we're going to keep, we're going to stay in this state of war, of uncertainty, of Israel continuing
03:01to achieve its own goals.
