Nasrallah: "Victory shall be ours by blood and will"

"Blood and will"--that has a nice Nazi sound. The source is Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting. This kind of rhetoric goes over well in Iran evidently:
Secretary-General of the Lebanese Islamic Resistance Movement, Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah slammed US President Bush for trying to force Lebanon to acknowledge Zionist regime and Palestinians to give up on right of return.

Nasrallah said Friday that "President Bush is forcing the Palestinians to give up on the right of return and accept refugees settling in other Arab nations."

Nasrallah spoke at a rally honoring the Muslin New Year, which was held at the Sayyed Al-Shuhada mosque in Beirut. "The Zionists would take their pick out of the '67 territories, Beit Ul Moqaddas and the settlement, and will give the Palestinians whatever crumbs they'll have left over."

"He (Bush) will demand the Lebanese accept reality and acknowledge Israel_ that is Bush's testament, which he feels like he can dictate to us," said Nasrallah.

Resistance, he continued, is the only way: "We will not emigrate_ We will stay on our land, in our cities and villages, even if our homes are destroyed and our soldier captured."

"The only way to deal with the Israeli plan for our region in through resistance... As I have promised you before _ we are going from victory to victory, and it shall be ours by blood and will."

"If he goes back 60 years, who started the killings? The Palestinians didn't do it, and the Jews who lived in Arab states lived peacefully. The ones doing the killing were Zionist gangs."

Nasrallah also slammed American media outlets and their pro-American-Zionist allies for presenting Zionist regime as a symbol of democracy in the region. His comments were met by chants of "Death to America and to Israel" from the crowd.

Bush, warned Nasrallah, views Israel "as a Jewish state, that is, racist...its existence is premised on race. Israel aspires for a racially pure existence." [...]
Nothing is more egalitarian than an Iranian-backed Shi'ite militia.
