Revealed: Why didn't Hezbollah join Hamas on October 7?
Current Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem revealed why the much stronger terrorist group didn't join Hamas in a planned pincer movement on Israel's north and south.
Ever since October 7, many have asked why Hezbollah did not take advantage of the chaos and disruption caused by the Hamas attack to attack Israel's north with its far better equipped and trained army.
Today (Tuesday), Hezbollah leader Sheikh Naim Qassem explained why.
Qassem said that Hezbollah was only informed of the attack a half an hour after it had begun, "along with the rest of the world." Qassem said that they then convened the Shura council governing the terrorist army and decided to merely support the Gaza offensive rather than launch a full scale war to "ease" matters with Gaza, as "a general war requires preparations" which were not carried out.
Qassem said that the vision of a "unity of fronts" in which Israel would be attacked from multiple directions by pro-Iran terrorist groups was "an idea which did not mature or cohere."
He also said that "according to the information in my possession," Iran also did not know of the plan for October 7.
