Senior Hezbollah official: "Israel, by its own actions, will destroy itself"

On March 25, 2024, Ammar Al-Moussawi, the Director of International Relations for the political wing of Hezbollah, spoke with Dimitri Lascaris in Beirut, Lebanon. Al-Moussawi is a former member of the Lebanese Parliament. In 1988, his brother was killed in combat against Israeli forces in south Lebanon. Lascaris and Al-Moussawi had a wide-ranging discussion about Israel's genocidal war on Gaza, the occupation of Lebanese lands by Israel, the duty of Arab states to come to the defence of Palestinians, and the possibility of Jews and Arabs living peacefully together in a single state.

This is believed to be the first interview by a Canadian journalist of a senior Hezbollah official.
