In a new and surprising blood libel, Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah declared Tuesday night that "Israel kills the Jews itself to support its initiative."

Nasrallah made the false claim in a speech marking the anniversary of the death of former Hezbollah military commander Imad Mughniyeh.

Nasrallah went on to level the accusation that "they [Israel] killed many Jews in different countries because they refused to move to Israel."

In other remarks directed at IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Aviv Kochavi, Nasrallah said, "You do what you want, and we'll do what we want. We aren't seeking a clash or a war, but if you declare war, we will fight it, and if you bomb a city, we'll bomb a city. If you bomb villages, we'll bomb in return."

Nasrallah went on to say that "If there is a war with Israel, the Israeli home front will find itself in a situation it hasn't had to deal with since 1948."

As for the Palestinians, Nasrallah said, "No one is talking about the 'deal of the century' that has disappeared, or is becoming irrelevant." He also mentioned the 42nd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, which supporters of the ayatollah regime marked last Thursday.

"The [Islamic] Republic has developed in all areas over the course of years, until it became a regional power," he said.

Military Intelligence officials in Israel believe that while Hezbollah does not want a full-scale war with Israel, it is not ruling out a few days of fighting. Nasrallah said, "No one can promise that a war or a few short days of battle won't devolve into a full-scale war."
