Hezbollah�s deputy leader, Naim Qassem, has warned that the terror group�s �patience may run out� as Israel continues limited operations during the ongoing ceasefire.
Israel argues its actions target Hezbollah operatives violating the truce, which stipulates Israel�s full withdrawal from Lebanon by the end of January, at which point the�Lebanese military is set to assume control of border areas to prevent Hezbollah from reestablishing positions near Israel.
�There is no timetable for our resistance,� Qassem said in a speech. �Our patience may expire at any moment, and when it does, the enemy will see our response.�
The ceasefire followed a two-month Israeli offensive from September to November that decimated Hezbollah�s leadership and military capabilities. The campaign culminated in the death of Hezbollah�s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, and the appointment of Qassem as his successor.
Qassem claimed Israel�s limited ground advancement marked a victory for Hezbollah�s fighters, despite Israel�s stated goal of eliminating border threats rather than pursuing deeper incursions.

I wonder what this does to his current and future life insurance policies (if he has one/them)
Big talker, let this big chicken go to Lebanon come and talk from there. The top level coward runs under the bed, and threatens I�m going to get you.
I wouldn’t sell him life insurance.
