Iran’s foreign minister on Saturday called on Israel to stop its attacks on Gaza, warning that the war might expand to other parts of the Middle East if Hezbollah joins the battle, and that would make Israel suffer “a huge earthquake.”

Hossein Amirabdollahian told reporters in Beirut that Lebanon’s Hezbollah group has taken all the scenarios of a war into consideration and Israel should stop its attacks on Gaza as soon as possible.

Israel considers Hezbollah its most serious immediate threat, estimating it has some 150,000 rockets and missiles, including precision-guided missiles that can hit anywhere in Israel. The group, which has thousands of battle-hardened fighters who participated in Syria’s 12-year conflict, also has different types of military drones.

Hezbollah fighters have been on full alert along Lebanon’s borders with Israel following last Saturday’s attack by the militant Palestinian group Hamas that left hundreds of Israeli civilians and soldiers dead.

    On the same take Israel could have killed off the whole Palestinian population several times over, if they really wanted to. But this doesn’t hinder you to spread the idea that Israel wants to kill all Palestinians, right?

      Israel already killed thousands of Palestinians during 75 years of occupation. There is no status-quo and there is no forgetting the RIGHT OF RETURN.

        Fuck off Nazi.

        Up to date, Hamas killed more Palestines than Israel. Go as far as throwing FATAH members from roof tops.

          Typical Israeli Hasbara propaganda. You recoil in horror when faced with a principled opposition to Israel’s Apartheid. And then, immediately afterwards, covers up you cowardice in lies about a different story.
