Referring to alleged Israeli strikes on Syria: “The repeated bombings that struck several targets in Syria are a major violation, and we consider that any strike against Syria is a strike against the whole of the resistance axis, not just against Syria. The axis is capable of responding. This can happen any time.”“Nasrallah warns Israel against any "stupid" moves in Lebanon, Syria,” Al Akhbar, January 16, 2015, http://english.al-akhbar.com/node/23240.

“Instead, everyday you will be hit by the unexpected and your leaders can repel nothing! Do not deny when evil befalls you, when you taste a bit of destruction that you inflict on others. Hence, blame none but yourselves. Gulp the bitterness of war, death, destruction and insecurity as other oppressed humans do. The two decade war has not laid down its burden, rather it is at its peak. The war between you and us has not ceased...”“Al-Qaeda Arabian Peninsula’s (AQAP) Qasim al-Rimi Video Indicator of Upcoming Attack Against Americans,” IntelCenter, June 2, 2013, http://intelcenter.com/reports/AQAP-ThreatWarning-2Jun2013.html.

In Their Own Words:

We reiterate once again that the brigades will directly target US bases across the region in case the US enemy commits a folly and decides to strike our resistance fighters and their camps [in Iraq].
