The figure of the martyr-leader Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah has occupied a central place in the resistant political discourse across the region, with the oppressed and their causes repeatedly appearing in his attention. He was widely regarded as the foremost opponent of the forces of global arrogance — foremost among them the United States and the Zionist enemy — and of their regional instruments. For decades, the supreme martyr Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah (may Allah be pleased with him) carried the Palestinian cause on his shoulders. For him, Palestine was not merely a local or historical question but a measure of moral and political legitimacy.

Nasrallah’s proximity to Palestinian resistance was constant and intimate. He provided military, financial, and logistical support — supporting the resistance required to confront Zionist brutality in occupied Palestine. The martyr accompanied Palestine and was accompanied by Palestinian masses since 1996, after the “Anāqīd al-Ghadab” operation, engraving himself deeply in the hearts and minds of Palestinians of all stripes — from ordinary citizens to political, economic, cultural, and academic elites — and becoming a principal component of Palestinian life in consciousness and sentiment.

On a symbolic level, Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah forged emotional bridges between the resistance in Lebanon and the Palestinian people. His words were read in Gaza’s camps and in the southern suburbs alike; his media presence became a source of trust among wide audiences, giving the cause a universal dimension. Solidarity’s tone exceeded geographical borders and entered an ethical domain that legitimized popular and political mobilization for Palestine.

Nasrallah’s stances constituted an obstacle to normalization tracks and strengthened the legitimacy of resistant action. He was diligent in exposing the American conspiracy in the region, insisting that U.S. policy represented an attempt to end and liquidate the Palestinian cause. In the period preceding the criminal Trump administration’s decision to move its embassy to al-Quds, the supreme martyr declared:

“It is time for everyone to know that America is not the guardian of peace; America is the patron of terrorism, occupation, destruction, and sedition, the maker of ISIS and the takfiri groups, and the nation’s stance must be summarized in two words: ‘Death to America.’”

 

His support for Palestine reached a peak after his direct engagement in backing and supporting Gaza following the Al-Aqsa Flood on 7 October 2023. Within a day, Hezbollah shelled Zionist positions along the Lebanese border in the northern sector of occupied Palestine. Over time, many Zionist settlements were reduced to deserted ruins; as a result of that support thousands of settlers fled northern settlements, and the Zionist ground offensive against the Gaza Strip was impeded.

In a speech delivered on Tuesday, 9 July 2024, the martyr — may Allah be pleased with him — said: “We are in the heart of the Al-Aqsa Flood in Gaza,” stressing that the Zionist aggression on the region and the Palestinian people’s victimhood are not matters for debate.

“There exists an obvious and manifest right called Palestine by standards of international law, rights, humanity, ethics, and religions, and there exists falsehood called ‘Israel,’” he said, warning that those who ignore what is happening in Gaza and the injustices inflicted on Palestine and its support fronts are “dead of mind, heart, and soul.”

 

For many Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah was more than a political supporter or military patron; he was their voice in the Arab arena. His speeches, watched by millions in the Strip, were broadcast over loudspeakers in the camps, and his phrase “the southern suburbs protect Gaza” became a renewed pledge. When he was assassinated, grief engulfed Gaza as much as it did the southern suburbs; many wrote then: “We lost a commander we never saw among us, yet he was present in every home.”

 

Closest and Dearest to the Hearts of Yemenis

 

Concerning Yemen, the martyr-leader maintained a frank stance from the second day of the brutal American–Saudi–Emirati aggression that began on 26 March 2015, considering standing with Yemen a moral and religious responsibility before it was a matter of geopolitical alliances.

He was among the first to stand with and support Yemen, and one of its most prominent defenders; his positions on Yemen were clear and sincere. No Arab leader had done for Yemen what he did or supported it to the same degree; his speeches were replete with endorsement and full alignment with the Yemeni people’s plight.

On the second day of the aggression, Nasrallah devoted a speech to Yemen that ran counter to prevailing positions: he condemned the aggression, denounced the statement of Saad Hariri’s government that sided with Saudi criminality, and expressed astonishment at the Palestinian Authority under Mahmoud Abbas for likewise aligning with the brutal aggression against Yemen. Addressing Abbas, he asked: “How do you support a war on a people? Go home; this will cost you your logic when ‘Israel’ wages war on you. If an Israeli aggression hits the West Bank and Gaza, how will you find sympathy?”

Nasrallah’s stance did not submit to personal interests; rather, it was grounded in a humane reading of the tragedy Yemen endures under siege and aggression. He linked Yemen’s suffering to Karbala in symbolic terms — a comparison that elevated the Yemeni cause above political calculations and made solidarity with it a moral duty grounded in religious and social standards for wide swaths of people.

In an Ashura commemoration address delivered in Beirut on 21 September 2018, he said:

In an Ashura commemoration
“We renew our standing beside the oppressed, tormented, resistant, and mujahid Yemeni people, who for nearly four years have been living each day and each hour a continuous Karbala. The Karbala of our era is taking place in Yemen in every sense of the word; for in the Yemeni battle you will find Karbala’s oppression, exile, siege, thirst, the world’s blockade of Karbala and the abandonment of the ummah — and this is what is happening today in Yemen.”

 

He was the foremost exposer of Saudi and allied falsehoods against Yemen, delivering a forceful description of the war:

“Now they say this war aims to defend the Arabness of Yemen. Fine — did the Arab peoples authorize the Saudi regime to wage a war in their name, in the name of Arabs, on Yemen? An Arab war on whom? A war of Arabs on whom? On Arab people? On pure Arabs? Look at their features, dialect, language, poetry, literature, eloquence — look at their honor, courage, zeal, fatherhood, pride in dignity, chivalry, and generosity. If the Yemeni people are not Arabs, then who are the Arabs?”

 

In a speech on 1 March 2016 he affirmed that the noblest and greatest act of his life was his address on the second day of the aggression on Yemen, asserting that no suffering on earth matched that of the Yemeni people because of the Saudi war, and that standing with the Yemeni people and Hezbollah’s support for them was loftier and more noble than their confrontations with “Israel” in the 2006 war.

When the world expected the American–Saudi aggression to overrun Yemen and defeat its people, the martyr — may God be pleased with him — saw otherwise: “In Yemen there is a people who say ‘far be it that we be humiliated,’ and any people who say that will have their blood prevail over the sword; that is the truth,” he said.

His position was manifested in praise for the heroism of the mujahid fighters of the army and Popular Committees, to the extent that he wished he could be a soldier under the command of their leader, Sayyid Abdul-Malik Badruldeen al-Houthi (may Allah protect him). He said: “What happened on the Yemeni western coast is akin to a miracle; for the fighting took place between the strongest air forces, powerful intelligence apparatuses, technologies, and armies on one side and, on the other, a mujahid people with modest means but possessing great faith and trust in Allah.”

He added: “In the recent experience on the western coast, we must bow in reverence to these heroic resistors and their courageous leadership.”

He continued: “I am ashamed that I am not with the Yemeni fighters on the western coast, and I say: Only to be with you fighting under the banner of your brave and wise leader. Every brother in the resistance says that. Let Saudi Arabia and the UAE know that they are facing a people who will not surrender and who possess a high capacity for steadfastness.”
