Wahhabism even more evil than Israel: Nasrallah



The head of the Lebanese resistance movement of Hezbollah says he considers the radical ideology of Wahhabism to be even more pernicious than the Israeli regime.

Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, the secretary general of Hezbollah, made the remark during his annual meeting with Muslim eulogists and the people responsible for commemoration ceremonies during the Lunar month of Muharram, Lebanons Al Akhbar newspaper reported on Tuesday.
The Hezbollah chief said he considered Wahhabism to be responsible for damaging Islams image worldwide. Wahhabism is more evil than Israel, especially [in] that it seeks to destroy others and eliminate whatever thing that has to do with Islam and its history, he said.
Not a Shia, Sunni matter

This project was launched in 2011, and it not a Shia and Sunni matter. The role played by spy services is completely evident here. We should use this opportunity to pin Wahhabism down and deal a blow to it, he added.

The existent conflict, Nasrallah said, was not between Shias and Sunnis, but with Wahhabism.

Wahhabism is the radical ideology dominating Saudi Arabia, freely preached by government-backed clerics there, and inspiring terrorists worldwide. Daesh and other Takfiri terror groups use the ideology to declare people of other faiths as infidels and then kill them.

Nasrallah also said what posed a yet bigger threat than Wahhabism and Zionism was British Shiism, which, he said, was being promoted by pseudo-religious figures, whom he called mercenaries of intelligence services.

Hezbollah has been crucial to keeping Wahhabi terrorism out of Lebanon, while helping neighboring Syria in holding back the scourge, too.

The Hezbollah chief said Saudi Arabia had escalated tensions to a climax and was trying,with the help of the US and Britain,to portray conflicts as sectarian.

Referring to the Syrian conflict, he said there were no moderate armed groups in Syria, warning that all those fighting Damascus were either working with Daesh or al-Nusra, which has recently renamed itself.

Nasrallah also said there was no prospect a political solution for the Syrian conflict. Developments on the [battle] ground will ultimately determine [the outcome], he said matter-of-factly.

Syria has been fighting a foreign-backed militancy since March 2011. Hezbollah fighters have been assisting Syrian government forces fighting back the militants, including Daesh and other dangerous groups.
