Out of Fear of Northern Front: Daydreaming ’Israeli’ Minister Warns Iran, Hezbollah ’May Pay a Heavy Price’

By Staff, Agencies

Zionist co-called minister of “economy” Nir Barkat claimed on Sunday that the “Israeli” occupation forces would “eliminate” Hezbollah and target Iran if the Palestinian resistance opens up a “northern front.”

“The plan of Iran is to attack ‘Israel’ on all fronts. If we find they intend to target ‘Israel,’ we will not just retaliate to those fronts, but we will go to the head of the snake, which is Iran,” Barkat alleged in comments to The Mail on Sunday.

The Zionist minister further alleged that Lebanon and Hezbollah “are going to pay a heavy price, similar to what Hamas is going to pay.”

The statement came after Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian said on Monday that the security situation for the Zionist regime may worsen very quickly. “If the war crimes against the Palestinians are not immediately stopped, other multiple fronts will open and this is inevitable,” he said.

Amir Abdollahian warned that further escalation would have “far-reaching repercussions.”

The Zionist military and Hezbollah have repeatedly exchanged fire since the fighting erupted between the ‘Israeli’ occupation forces and Hamas earlier this month. The Zionist entity’s ignorant PM, Benjamin Netanyahu, stated on Sunday that Hezbollah would suffer “unprecedented destruction” if it officially joins the war against the ‘Israel’.
