On this edition of Parallax views, journalist Ali Rizk joins us from Beirut, Lebanon to discuss the speech given by Hezbollah's Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah this past Friday and his Responsible Statecraft article "Why Hezbollah doesn't want a full-scale war. Yet.". We'll be discussing Hezbollah involvement in the Israel/Hamas War or Gaza War so far as well as the relationship between Hezbollah and Iran (and why Rizk think calling Hezbollah and Iranian proxy is an oversimplification), Hezbollah's relationship with the Houthis in Yemen and Iraqi Shia militias, past tensions between Hamas and Hezbollah (ie: Syria), Hezbollah's redlines, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's change in rhetoric since the most recent visit by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and whether this means the war is wrapping up, how sectarians are brought together by the Palestine/Palestinian issue, and more.
