U.S. Representative Mario Diaz-Balart has hailed the elimination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah as a significant victory for both the United States and Israel.
Diaz-Balart, in a statement on his verified Twitter account, emphasized that Nasrallah, one of the most notorious Iranian-backed terrorists, was responsible for numerous attacks on American and Israeli citizens, including bombings of U.S. embassies and terrorist activities worldwide. He described Nasrallah’s death as a blow to the global terror network, given his involvement in orchestrating attacks that led to the deaths of thousands of innocent civilians, including Americans and Israelis.
The congressman underscored the importance of standing firm in support of Israel, noting that the nation faces existential threats from hostile regimes, particularly Iran. Iran, along with its proxies Hezbollah and Hamas, poses a direct threat to Israel’s security, and Diaz-Balart called for decisive action to counter their terrorism. He stated that the elimination of Nasrallah represents a crucial step in reducing the threat posed by these groups.
Diaz-Balart also pointed out that the security of Israel is not just a matter of concern for the Jewish state but also for the United States and its citizens. He stressed that the fight against Iranian-backed terrorism is vital for global stability and the protection of innocent lives.
By addressing the threat posed by Hezbollah, the United States and Israel are acting in their mutual interest, ensuring the safety of their citizens from the growing menace of radical, anti-American regimes.
