the assassinations may be tactical success, but will lead to strategic failure. they argue that the assassination of the party secretary general sayid abbas al musawi contributed to the rise of young leader back then, sayid hasan nasrullah. despite international humanitarian law prohibiting assassination policies, the israeli occupation entity legalized this policy in 2002, a global first, with certain conditions that were not added to, requiring the prime minister's approval. this leaves ample room for the... potential misuse of assassinations to serve the personal interests of the prime minister without necessarily achieving the entity's interests. in practice, the approach to the recent assassinations carried out in lebanon over the past period reveals that they did not achieve their intended goals. in examining some facts that netanyahu prefers to overlook in his desire to prolong the war and for reasons related to staying in power, the following can be observed. assassinations did not deliver achievements. netanya u to

achieve complete victory in the gaza strip led him to chase after an image of victory to present publicly and leverage in ongoing negotiations. if assassinating leaders in hisbollah had given netanyahu the victory image he needed, zionist israel wouldn't be facing increasing internal division and mutual accusations among officials. assassination of leaders did not restore israeli entity deterrance. every assassination was met with a calculated and escalating response. the resistance's of reaction to the assassination of unit. commander muhammad showed that the unit's capabilities remained intact, the israeli entity escalation did not deter the resistance from retaliating, including targeting previously untouched bases like the technical and electronics center in mount hermon, attacked for the first time since 1973. welcome to the mini stream, i'm madwar osman. just as

hisbollah's aerial performance raises more difficult questions inside zinus israel these skeptical and questioning inquiries about the effectiveness of the assassination policy followed by the israeli occupation security leadership do not seize. these questions include whether this policy enhances the security of the settlers of the gality finger in the golden heights in particular as assassinations provide fuel for further escalation. to discuss this issue with us from beirot is dr. ibrahim musawi, lebanese member of parliament for the loyalty to the resistance block, a pleasure having you with us. what has zionists israel been able to achieve by eliminating syrian s senior figures of the resistance over the past nine months, did it diminish in your opinion the fighting motivation or at least potentially weaken the desire to retaliate against dinast israel in south lebanon? well, i mean in a simple words, absolutely not, it gives the

opposite, it gives the opposite meaning, it gives the opposite result for the israelis, why to tell you, in one sense, this would serve the resistance in many instances, how when they assassinate the leaders of the resistance or the senior members in the resistance, they alleviate the suffering and in the anguish and the pain that the resistance fighters feel and the resistance senior leaders feel when the assassinate. and when the massacers being carried out against the civilians, then you are telling the civilians one way or another, we are there next to you, we are fighting in the ground in the battlefield and we are being murdered, we are being assassinated, you see this is going to make more fusion between the people and the resistance, this is one thing, and the other thing is that this will give a further incentive to the resistance to retaliate in in reprisal of these kind of attacks and assassinations, i believe... "if this policy

has been used and has been pursued by the israelis long time ago, it didn't work in any place, not in lebanon, not in any other place and especially in palestine, why? because you are talking about people who have certain cause to serve, and they are ready to sacrifice for this cause. one, the israelis assassinate the leaders and embody this kind of sacrifice, this would give a further point for the resistance with the people and for the people as well to understand that we are talking." think about one fusion that is ready to fight for the cause. well, dr. musawi, despite international humanitarian law prohibiting basically the policy of assassination, zinus israel does it anyways, it doesn't care, we've seen it doesn't care by the ongoing genocide in gaza, but there is something very important that came as a consequence for the vial act of aggression of and assassinations, the retaliatory actions to the assassinations of senior leaders has become viable, acceptable project in the eyes

of the world, and even in the eyes of zionists, their own perception of the retaliation. we've seen this, for example, in the iranian retaliation on april 14. uh, in response to the assassination of general riza zahidi in the iranian consultant in damascus, the whole world was standing israel that it is because of your actions, you did the assassination, now you have to uh just take uh the blow from uh iran, how do you assess this new development from a resistance point of view? first, why should israel care about the international community when the international community is supporting all the massacers and is ready to, i mean in in for the america. at least and for others to use the v to sabotage any attempt to condemn israel or even to inflict any kind of or put any measures, any sanctions against israel, why the israelis should care about the international community when they are being supported by this so-called quote and quote

international community. this is first. now to the second issue we have to understand very important point here and this is very excellent question, thank you. mean if you go and follow the uh history record of the clashes with the israelies, if you take the lebanese resistance for ex for example in 1993, 1996 when this april agreement after the grapes of wrath aggression by the israelis, it entitled the resistance and it gave the resistance the right to retaliate against the israelis, why? because the resistance has had this crucial and this very strong and this very great mode. to hit back against the israelis in order to defend the people, because the people are being killed anyway, so you have to do something in order to defend them, in order to protect them, and it was very important issue to happen. now there are these what they call the rule of clash, who makes the rule of clash? this is

what they want to do, mean if you go to the result, if you go to the ultimate, then you will find what? the israelis have been portrayed to the whole world as the invincible army as israel that cannot be defeated, as the army that has a long hand that would reach anywhere, kill anyone, destroy any army, has supremacy in as a supremacy in water, they can make ground offensive, all of these propaganda, all of this brain wash, campaigns has been shattered by the resistance and by the steadfastness of the people, so now when you say that it is viable project, it is accepted by the international community, who made it acceptable, because we have been able to... to penetrate and to go behind the barrier and to live up to our dreams, to our of liberation and the protection, so i mean these rule of clashes have been produced by the resistance, by the steadfastness of the people and by the and this is very important

by the leadership, this keen sight of the leadership that has been able to see, no, the israelis can be defeated, this is not an invincible army, the international community should live and see what's happening and this is happening not only in lebanon, not only in palestine, but also in yemen, because of this we will have more and more victories inshallah inshallah, but uh dr. uh musawi, ziniral does not have the upper hand anymore, we live in a time alhamdulillah where as it strikes it gets struck back, how did we get here, and what if we get stuck in this endless loop of tit for tat, especially in leban? what happens then? well, to tell you the truth, actually, i've been like, i like kind of partially, i answered this question when i said a little while ago about what what's happening and how did we do it and how do we do it? the thing is that when you talk

about the reprisal or this, it's not a vicious cycle of that for that, it is we are standing to the israeli aggressions, we are a in a position to retaliate, in a position to hit back, in position to track them again and when we make this equation, you you know the israelis had had long time ago had their equations and formulas that we have to live, we have to obey, we have to comply with, now it is the other way around, we are part of the equation and we are very important, this is very important detering force, deterrant force that would make the israelis make their own calculations and not go into. but it's been nine months, who's gonna who's going to say ouch first? i'll i'll let, i'll i'll give you the answer. now you're saying it's nine months, but it is limited in a certain geographical area and to certain goals or to certain things, not an open confrontation.

why is is that had the israelis been in a position to start an all-out war against lebanon and to target the southern suburb or beirot or the electricity plants or whatever they would have? done it long time ago and they they used to do it without any say, without any questioning or whatever. why they are not doing it, because they know the kind of retaliatory action that would happen would be devastating on them. so you're talking here not about only tit for that and division cycle, you're talking about formulas equations that are being installed in reality and that would put the israelies in a position to count 4 thous before they go into targeting certain goals, this is a formula and the equation of protection and deterrance and it's a balance of terror, i presume. dr ibrahim musawi, lebanese member of parliament for the loyalty to the resistance block, i always enjoy our discussion, especially when it has to do about how... how our uh beautiful, courageous uh men of resistance are teaching the zionist entity lessons that

they will learn forever. thank you very much, dr. musi for your time, ladies and gents, stay tuned because next we are going to talk about the deceiving uh western uh notion of a reconstruction plan for gaza. the un mission to manage the reconstruction of gaza appears difficult to achieve, even sometimes impossible. while the united nations seems out wordly and legally independent, it ultimately reflects the wills of its member states. especially the permanent members of the security council led by the united states. therefore, it is not

just diplomacy, skills, or competency that will settle matters, but a combination of palestinian, arab, european, zionist and american factors. more details in the following report. if you were to ask a displaced gazin today, whether they have been displaced once within their area or multiple times from bethanon. jabalia baitlahya, gaza city, passing through the central region down to rafah and khan unis and returning forcibly to the same places they were expelled from about their dream, they would answer without hesitation to go back home. to go back to my normal life nine months ago, to have a warm bath, eat my usual food, to have three meals a day like everyone else. it is natural for humans in wars to seek a safe place. it is natural and should be the... case in all wars that neighboring and distant countries provide safe places and shelters for those affected by wars and disasters. however, in

the case of gaza, neighboring doors have been closed, regardless of the reasons behind the siege. there is no safe place. every part of gaza is a military operation zone. all our fields of death, hunger and thirst in a policy declared as genocide by the enemy government and its allies. cities in gaza and its camps have been destroyed up to 90%, and the houses that were not completely destroyed have been partially demolished. when the war ends, cousins will emerge from their tents that have scorched their bodies due to unbearable heat into the unknown, or at best, into the same tense, they will relocate to nearer geographical spots, resembling the rubble of their homes. the tragedy of a war that lasted longer than usual will end, and new type of war will continue, a war of adapting to life experienced by some of their grandparents who were displaced or sought refuge. in 1948 inside or outside their homeland after leaving their cities and villages full of life, hope and happiness

into the unknown. the urgent question posed today by gazan women and men alike is whether there will be a reconstruction of what was destroyed in gaza. for palestinian women, life can only exist in their kingdom, their home, kitchen, garden or in their planters and farming basins were mint, basil, some sage, time, and martorome grow. how will this not be a reality upon? their return to their homes, there will be no homes a waiting them, but rather rubble. international organizations estimate the cost of rebuilding gaza at over 40 billion us dollars. however, can, whomever is delegated by the un to oversee this reconstruction overcome the zinest american conditions? these conditions include disarming the resistance, preventing hamas from returning to govern gaza, replacing it with the rule of the palestinian national authority, and allowing zyanus forces to operate in the sector as happening today in the occupied west bank, more like netanyahu's dreams, they sound incredibly

unfeasable. to discuss this issue with us from beirot is dr. mohammed hassan suwaidan, researcher and geopolitical commentator, a pleasure having you with us, dr. suiden, now the reconstruction file of the gaza strip is not about establishing offices and selecting competent staff, despite its importance actually in terms of executive planning and coordination work. above all, it concerns the political will of zionists, israel and american leaderships. how do you see that specific will at the current moment in time? well, um, the americans. and the israelies both view the reconstruction plan as part of the plan for the day after in gaza, they they don't view it as a plan for uh for palestinians, but rather a plan to continue their goals in uh in soft power, they view, they view it as part of several steps they should do, they should take in order to be uh be sure that the palestinians inside of gaza

uh don't believe in the resistance anymore and that's why they are trying to add to add to their reconstruction plan plans. to uh universities to leting palestinians leave gaza uh giving them visas in european and in uh western countries uh it's part of the whole package in order to uh let palestinians uh not believe in resistance anymore but rather uh know that any reconstruction plan if they want their homes rebuilt if they want gaza to return the way it was before they should abandon the resistance and they should abide by the western rules and there are many uh examples uh through his history that proved that proves how the american americans think and how the israelis think, well let's look at vietnam, vietnam during the after the american war, it was reconstructed by the west, and while vietnam was one of the west west's main enemies during the war, today it's one of the west of the west's main allies in the in asia, and that's how the americans work, they use soft power, they use

reconstruction, they use uh soft power tools in order to shift the uh population towards... their interests and that's how the americans and the israelies are trying to uh treat uh their reconstruction as part of several stages uh for soft power tools for the day after inside of gaza. well, dr. suwaidan, but i think i personally think that it's a bit different when it comes to gaza since the level of destruction and genocide that the people of gaza have witnessed, it has never been witnessed before in our modern times, but international organizations estimate the cost of rebuilding gaza at four. billion us dollars, where will this amount of money be raised from uh or brought from, and shouldn't the un oblige the zinest entity to pay for the reconstruction process, mean they were the one who destroyed it, why don't they pay for it? well, we we really live an anarchy, we really live in a realistic world where and where realism is the is the thing

that rules uh this whole anarty in the world, what should happen is different. from what will happen and i'm sorry to to say that, well let's see all the all the wars that the west have funded, let's see israel's wars in the region, who paid for them, um, part of them was paid by the arab world, our main part of them was was paid by the arab world for lebanon, they pay for the bombs and then they pay for the rebuilding at the same time, those same states, exactly, and and that's and that's because they treat reconstruction plan, not not as a plan for uh for the people, but rather as a plan out of soft power tools. and what should happen is of course the west is responsible for every destruction happening inside of gaza, not only inside of gaza, but also but also on lebanon and all the region, so the west should pay, and but what should happen is different from what will happen, well we live a in a world control, where the uh international organizations are controlled by the west, are controlled by the us mainly,

and the us has being is acting like a shield for israel inside this organization, and that's why israel won't be accounted for. it did and the us of course won't be accounted for what it did, but rather they will try to let the arab world just repay for the our perf for the reconstruction inside of gaza and also i think inside of lebanon and several and and other countries that were affected by by the war and that's what will happen and i think today there are some signs that the arab world is willing to pay for uh reconstruction and i don't think it's surprising well we have we have seen how the arab world or how the arab governments to be to be to be clear. how the arab governments reacted to the war till now, they are being acting also as a shield to to israel and that's what they will continue to do after the war ends. they have lot of reconstruction to do in syria, in iraq, lebanon, gaza, exactly, and that added to the uh big uh budget that they already paid, thousands of billions of dollars were paid to end yemen,

syria, iraq, and now lebanon and palestine. i want to thank you very much, dr. mohammed suwaidan, researcher and geopolitical comment. for joining us to discuss uh this issue, thank you for your contribution to our show, dr. suaidan, ladies and gents, thank you for watching, do please follow us on telegram and on x, and we always promise you to get you the latest information right here from west asia on press tv's theme stream. one of the problems that has always bothered people with disabilities who have to use a wheelchair is their reliance on the people around them, and that is in large part

because of the sheer weights of the wheel chairs that they're sitting on, but what if there was a way to make these wheelchairs a lot lighter without sacrificing on their strength and durability? well that's exactly what we're going to be exploring in this week's episode of eurontec. naruq, a tiny city in the central makazi province, is located not far from the cities of isfahan and kaushan. in narak, ancient

water reservoirs are credited as architecture masterpiece in iran. due to the existence of 15 water-powered mills, nadok used to be known as the city of mills. with the advent the holy month of muharram on islamic calendar, this currently silent city is draped entirely in black, becoming totally different place from what it was before. the shiah rituals of muharram and the following month safar are among deep-seated

traditions observed every year all across iran in commemoration of the mardom of imam hussein alayhi salam the grandson of the prophet muhammad what adds to the beauty of these rituals is the diversity in the...
