(Ynet News) “This man, Hassan Nasrallah, will not die,” claimed Lebanese Hezbollah supporters on Saturday. Many of them are still waiting to see him on television screens, explaining what will happen next. They think that the announcement of his death is a ruse and a tactic designed to confuse the enemy.

It’s hard to believe. Yesterday I went for a long walk through Beirut’s streets. The city, which always was bustling with life, seemed dead. In the few places where young people still gathered, there was complete hysteria: “This man was killed in his prime, they killed him and humiliated him,” claimed Nasrallah’s supporters, who were almost the only ones who went out into the street.
A few hours before, Lebanese citizens held a demonstration in Beirut, with dozens of young people standing in the street, holding Lebanese flags and remaining silent. Although they are still afraid of Hezbollah operatives, their goal is to convey a message to the world that “Lebanon will remain Lebanon,” with or without the terrorist organization and its leaders who have been eliminated.
