Al-Jazeera reports on Nasrallah’s speech yesterday at a ceremony for the assassinated Hezbullah military leader ‘Amad al-Mughniya. Nasrallah said that Israel assassinated Mughniya because of the country’s defeat in the 2006 July War. Nasrallah vowed that if Israel wants an open war (al-harb al-maftoha) in this manner, then they will get one — referring to the way they killed Mughniya.
