To cast light on the July war, also known as the 33-day war, Tehran Times has exclusively interviewed Sayyid Haidar, one of the Islamic
if you remind the readers how the war began.At exactly 8:45 a.m
on July 12, 2006, a crew from the Fifth Zionist Brigade went out with their Hummer vehicles on a regular patrol, along the border fence with
Lebanon until they reached the point where the Resistance had planted an explosive device
At the same time, medium ammunitions were fired at the two vehicles from the same location
Two Zionists were killed in the backhoe, while the third was killed while trying to flee
Minutes later, two shells were fired at the front Hummer from a distance of 40 meters, so it plunged about 20 meters to a stop
The Zionists admit that two members of the second Hummer crew fled, while Hezbollah withdrew with its captured Zionist soldiers, i.e
to a 4-wheel drive vehicle that was waiting on the other side of the border, whereby another support group blew up the fence with an
explosive device that enabled it to move the soldiers easily
aggression?In times of war, individual concerns cease and turn into providing the means for a collective victory
Indeed, if the simple definition of victory in wars, according to the most famous German military theorist, Carl von Clausewitz, is breaking
the will of the enemy and preventing it from achieving its goals, then victory in war is not based on the sort of weapons, but rather on the
open war launched by the Zionists - under a full American umbrella - for the sole purpose of ending Hezbollah
masters in Tel Aviv and Washington
Until today, those notorious regimes still hope for the fall of the Axis of Resistance, which exposes their cheapness
Hezbollah entered the war with clear definite goals, namely the liberation of its prisoners in exchange for the two Zionist soldiers.You
have mentioned the US green light to the occupation
In your opinion, to what extent was the United States involved in this aggression?The US administration has not only been involved with the
temporary entity; it has always been its political and military sponsor
Overtly, it was financing the enemy and supplying it with everything needed to bomb and annihilate Lebanon, terminate its infrastructure and

SID Today, a website affiliated with the US National Security Agency, has revealed confidential information on how Israeli military
officials in Unit 8200 (specialized in technical espionage) have pressured their American counterparts to help provide information on the
media play in achieving the July 2006 victory?Before delving into the answer, and as a matter of thanks and appreciation, we specifically
Indeed, His Eminence, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, has dropped the Cultural Implantation Theory followed by
some political and economic systems to create dependent fragile societies that fully approve what they are indoctrinated, which is what
The same applies to US imperialism which uncompromisingly tries to promote the supremacy of its unbeatable policy
Sayyed Nasrallah has laid down a theory settling that the media is a partner in making victory
Sayyed Nasrallah stresses that the Resistance media is an active part of the rules of engagement
Furthermore, a report by the Commission for the Examination of the Events of the 2006 Campaign in Lebanon clearly indicates the role media
played which highlighted how the Resistance defeated the occupation army.Well, what impact has also the July war left on the Palestinian
Resistance?Undeniably, the Palestinian Resistance has learnt the greatest lessons from the 2006 war, as it has rapidly escalated its
fighting level in more than one confrontation, especially in the recent battles of Jenin
Here, it is necessary to refer to the combat tactics that have been developed by Hezbollah during the July war, and then assimilated by the
Palestinian resistance, mainly: tunnel fighting, maneuvering missile launches, and wire communications technique that has significantly
At the very least, the temporary entity is no longer in a position of superiority, attack, and initiative
Thus, it has moved from a vulnerable position to a defensive one
The July 2006 war has overthrown the scandalous agreements of Oslo in 1993, Wadi Araba in 1994, the Deal of the Century, followed by the
satanic sanctions, brutal sieges and colorful revolutions at times through takfirist ideologies, and at other times through anti-Resistance
TV channels aimed at sowing discord between Sunnis and Shiites, between Arabs and Persians, and between the Resistance and its
environment.Let us return back to the role of the Mujahideen
There are a large number of them who fearlessly led the war
Some of them joined the caravan of martyrs
It would be great if we briefly mention their heroic roles.The victory of July 2006 was architected by various martyr leaders, witnessed
many battles since 1982 until July 12, 2006, and then they completed their jihad desiring one of the 2 good deeds either victory or
Among these martyrs was Ibrahim Mahmoud al-Hajj, aka Abu Muhammad Salman, who got martyred in Iraq in 2014

The enemy repeatedly tried to occupy the city in a bid to raise the Zionist flag in its stadium to restore their shaken consideration; it
thought that it would only take 48 hours, but the Resistance fighters routed them
Hence, the enemy made a decision to destroy the entire city
Most of its buildings were leveled to the ground, and one of them was over his holy body along with his two companions, Martyrs Muhammad Abu
prominent Martyr is Muhammad Qanso, aka Sajid al-Dewair, who got martyred in Beit Yahoun in 2006
In 2005, he was entrusted with leading the operation to capture Israeli soldiers in GHajjar
He returned to Bint Jbeil, where he managed the battle alongside his companion Hajj Khaled Bazzi and other comrades
He was wounded 3 times in the war, as he was engaging the enemy from a very few meters away
During the July War, he was one of the field commanders of the Resistance as he was at the forefront of the military leaders that liberated
During the July War, the martyr was keen to be at the top of the list to participate in any qualitative operations against the occupation
His presence in the field boosted the morale of the mujahedeen until August 14, 2006.Among the martyr leaders who participated in the July
heroic tournaments was also Martyr Hasan Muhammad al-Hajj, aka Abu Muhammad al-Eqleem, who got martyred in Hama in 2015
Since he was from the founding generation of the Resistance, he was familiar with all the details of the interlocutors
With the outbreak of the 2006 war, and with the enemy advancing towards the town of Bayada in Tyre, the martyr instructed the Resistance
fighters to distribute ambushes along the sea line
At the same time, he supervised the firing of missiles at hostile targets in occupied Palestine.I also remember Martyr Hassan Lakkis, aka
He was subjected to more than one assassination attempt
On August 7, 2006, his son, Ali Al-Ridha, got martyred during an assignation attempt that aimed at targeting him.Another martyr is Hatem
He was an electrical engineer who planned several military operations
During the capture operation on July 12, 2006, he was charged with the responsibility of dispersing enemy fire targeting the group entrusted
with capturing the Israeli soldiers
groups.After all this presentation, we come to talk about the pivotal role played by the master of the pro-Resistance martyrs, Hajj Qassem
Soleimani, during the July War
How has Hajj Qassem contributed to achieving victory and then maintaining it?During the early days of the July 2006 war, Martyr Qassem
Soleimani conveyed an urgent verbal message from the Islamic Revolution Supreme Leader, Sayyad Ali Khamenei, to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah,
We have full confidence in the victory of the Resistance
He urged him not to take risks because American evil lurks at every crossroads.However, HajjQassem insisted on keeping abreast of all the

For its part, the Palestinian united factions have fought the battles of Saif al-Quds, the Unity of the Arenas, and the Might of the Free
The West Bank has joined these heroic battles too, and the commando operations have escalated
The image of the Resistance is getting brighter.In a closer look at the nature of Israeli goals explained in Western and Israeli studies, we
notice today a sharp drop in the ceiling of these goals, chiefly the elimination of the Resistance.Hezbollah nowadays has bettered its
military strength; restore credibility to the Israeli deterrence force; and weakening Hezbollah within Lebanon
pro-resistance groups.The July victory was an example for these factions that the impossible becomes possible if the basic elements of the
The Resistance has stood firm despite the ferocity of the war and its vicious phases
Besides, the spirit of Resistance among the peoples of the region has not been broken, despite the wicked methods to enforce normalization
It has also proven that Iran has not invented the Axis of Resistance, rather empowered it when others withdrew from the honorable approach
Hezbollah has not imported the resistance from Iran but rather assumed this praiseworthy task as the temporary entity insists on attacking
The July 2006 war has been harsh; however, out of the mercy of the challenges, the pro-Resistance Axis has grown sturdier.
