  Is a New World War Near? War was his life. He grew up in war, gained everything he had from it, and lost everything because of it. War took his life, but it became a new beginning for him in death. On September 27, the assassination of Hezbollah’s Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah, has pushed the world closer to a major war. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, after claiming responsibility for Nasrallah’s killing, stated that he had avenged the deaths of numerous Israeli citizens, as well as many Americans and French nationals.

In 1992, Israeli helicopters attacked Lebanon and assassinated Hezbollah’s then-Secretary-General, Abbas al-Musawi, along with his wife and five-year-old son. Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir also believed that Isra...
