Israel’s far-right finance minister has called for the re-occupation of Lebanon’s southern area amid heightened tensions between the usurping regime and the Hezbollah resistance movement, Press TV reports.
During a speech in the occupied Old City of al-Quds on Monday, Bezalel Smotrich argued that only a war with Hezbollah can ease the conflict, adding, “The Israeli people are ready for this.”
"There is no way to restore security to the residents of the north without a war that will destroy Hezbollah, that will reoccupy southern Lebanon,” the racist minister said.He also noted that Israel must create “a security strip” within Lebanese territory.
Israel occupied a strip of land in southern Lebanon in the early 1980s and withdrew from the region in May 2000.
