Atwan: The axis of resistance achieved another victory with the arrival of Iranian fuel oil to Lebanon

In his editorial today (Saturday), Atwan, editor-in-chief of the London-based trans-regional newspaper Rai Al-Youm, also described the event as a “major political and humanitarian defeat” for the United States.

Referring to the passage of Iranian fuel oil tankers across the Syrian border into the Bekaa region of Lebanon and the unloading of their cargo in the tanks of the company owned by Hezbollah, he said: “Most of this cargo is provided free of charge to government hospitals and nursing homes and orphanages It will be distributed and the rest will be sold at low prices and without any sectarian or racial discrimination to private hospitals and bakeries.

Atwan added: Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah asked his supporters not to celebrate this event so that the defeated opposition, ie the internal allies of the United States and the Zionist regime in Lebanon, would not be in a tight spot and would not be provoked.

The editor-in-chief of Rai Al-Youm pointed out that groups of Lebanese people greeted the fuel caravans with flowers in their hands and expressed their joy. The darkness of the story and the lack of medicine and bread due to the closure of bakeries and hours of stopping in long lines of cars at gas stations to receive a few liters of gasoline have every right to express happiness by seeing fuel tankers.

He continued: “Many US allies in Lebanon expressed doubts about the arrival of the Iranian oil tanker in the Syrian port of Banias and stipulated that the US and Israel would attack it at sea or in the Syrian port of Banias or tankers in They will bomb the Lebanese area of ​​Bekaa while transporting fuel, and they were impatient to hear about such an attack day and night, but their hopes were dashed and they lost all their bets.

Atwan described the incident as a simultaneous failure of three US sanctions imposed on Iranian oil, Syrian ports and the Lebanese people, and said that the Syrian penal code imposed by the United States and its allies, known as “Caesar,” was dying. .

The prominent Arab expert on “weakening Hezbollah” and “disarming it” and “inciting the Lebanese to rise up against it” and “igniting a civil war over several decades to erode Hezbollah’s military and humanitarian capabilities” He cited the siege of Lebanon as one of the US goals: But in the end, Hezbollah was the big winner.

According to the editor of Rai Al-Youm, this event proved two very important points: first, that Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, as the leader of the Lebanese resistance, had a great ability to face and challenge the enemies, as well as his extraordinary power in The management of this big event and the necessary logistical measures, including the provision of tankers and facilities needed to store and distribute fuel, proved.

Second, the US government’s erroneous assessment of the situation and power of the other side and the extent of the Lebanese nation’s suffering and deprivation and its angry reaction and Washington’s late and erroneous decisions to reduce this suffering and deprivation were proven and showed that the White House’s claim It is completely baseless that the purpose of imposing punishments is not to harm the nations, but to the systems that govern the drawers.

In the end, Abdul Bari Atwan described the recent US defeats as follows: After a major defeat in Afghanistan, the US despaired of reaching a nuclear deal with Iran, and before that, the military collapse of its ally, Israel, in the recent war. Gaza should be reminded, and the fourth defeat of the United States is that it could not prevent the tanker carrying the Iranian oil tanker from reaching the Syrian port of Banias, and this tanker reached its destination safely.

“America’s hands and feet burned in the Middle East and all its plans failed, and it has no choice but to find a safe way out of the region to reduce its losses and losses,” he said. .
