Israeli military cannot escape defeat despite its apparent capabilities, 
stressing that thousands of Israeli troops are now seeking mental health 
treatment.
Addressing his supporters via a televised speech broadcast from the Lebanese 
capital city of Beirut on Sunday evening, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah stated that 
even though Israel has greatly developed its arsenal and acquired 
state-of-the-art missiles and military hardware, it cannot yet escape defeat in 
any possible military confrontation.
"The Israeli army is incapable of recruiting a new generation of soldiers as the 
draftees lack any sense of motivation to fight. According to Israeli media 
reports, 44,000 Israeli soldiers sought help from psychiatrists last year. 
Israel cannot change the spirit of the defeat that is with its military 
personnel,” he pointed out.
Nasrallah then praised Lebanese youths for the outstanding courage they 
demonstrated in battles to purge the country’s border regions of Daesh Takfiri 
terrorists.
"Foreign media outlets are seeking to intimidate our nation by over-counting the 
number of our martyrs. Those who think they can overawe our people are 
delusional. We achieved full liberation of our border lands through sustained 
efforts made by Lebanese army soldiers and resistance fighters,” the Hezbollah 
chief commented.
Nasrallah underlined that the United States has always offered financial support 
and funneled weapons to Daesh militants, saying, "US forces intervened to stop 
Lebanese army from launching a military operation against Daesh in Joroud al-Jarajeer 
area (in western Qalamoun region). On one occasion, US military helicopters even 
airlifted Daesh commanders from an area in Syria, when the terrorists had been 
besieged.”
The Hezbollah secretary general noted that the US does not care at all about the 
interests of regional states in the Middle East, emphasizing that Washington 
never stands by its allies and simply views them as tools in order to attain its 
own goals.
Nasrallah also warned against a false flag chemical attack in Syria's 
northern province of Idlib as a pretext for airstrikes against the Damascus 
government.
"While the West is looking for an excuse to launch a military aggression on 
Syria, it is turning a blind eye to the crimes being committed against Yemeni 
children. Nobody knows into what abyss [Saudi Crown Prince] Mohammed bin Salman 
is plunging Saudi Arabia and its nation,” he pointed out.
Turning to Lebanon’s internal affairs, Nasrallah stated that the inflammatory 
rhetoric against Hezbollah has intensified ever since parliamentary elections 
were held in Lebanon on May 6.
"The goal of the plot against Lebanon is to hold it responsible at all levels 
for the deteriorating situation in the country. We are modestly the largest 
party in Lebanon, but we have the least representation in the political arena. 
We bet on intra-Lebanese dialogue for the formation of the new government as the 
time is ticking away,” he concluded.
