'They're sending us to die:' Hezbollah operatives express fear, exasperation with war effort
Jerusalem Post ^ | 3 April 2026 | MAYA ZANGER-NADIS

Posted on 04/03/2026 10:18:46 AM PDT by MeanWestTexan

Hezbollah Radwan Force terrorists captured last week by the IDF's Givati Brigade revealed that their organization is facing a sharp decline in morale, and operatives feel that "Hezbollah is sending us to die...to avenge Ali Khamenei."

In an interrogation session with the IDF's Unit 504, one of the operatives explained that "morale is on the floor. No one has the strength to go out and fight."

Both operatives noted that they were worn out after a year and a half of war, referring to Hezbollah's involvement in the 2023-2025 Israel-Hamas war. They also both said that the official purpose they were given for Hezbollah's involvement in the current war was to avenge the death of Iran's former supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, who was killed in a targeted strike at the outset of the war.

"Anyone who leaves their home does so against their will," one of the Radwan terrorists said. "You can't tell them you don't want to come."

Asked to expand on why people did not want to join the fight, the terrorist explained:

"If I were at home and they called me to war, I wouldn't come. Why? First, I just got out of a war. Not even a year and a half has passed. Second, my whole body - there's nothing healthy in it. Third, why should I prevent my children and my family from being with me?"

Another terrorist was asked about the treatment he got from his commanders, and told the IDF interrogators that "it's like sending an animal [to war]. He doesn't care about it. He doesn't tell it, for example, how it will eat, how it will sleep - any kind of communication. Who am I supposed to speak to? What am I supposed to do if I am injured?"

“Hezbollah is sending us to die...to avenge Ali Khamenei.”
What else do they expect from a psycho-mullah death cult?

Aw, c’mon you terrorist twerps. Look forward to the next world where you’ll see those virgins, many the homely hook nosed types you see shrieking at shopkeepers now and no guarantee they won’t be ready to say “not tonight, I have a headache.”

RE: Hezbollah terrorists complaining they are being sent out to die....

They say that like it’s a bad thing.

Like with serial killers, each one eliminated means people in the future will not become victims.

“Hezbollah is sending us to die...to avenge Ali Khamenei.”

of course that’s the whole Idea isnt it?!
I’ve no doubt the hezbullies probably feel MUCH safer when they’re killing unarmed old men, women and children.

Lebanon not very long ago was a nice, peaceful place of beauty and harmony.

It’s been a while, probably 1930s.

The Nazis propped up the Shia and the Christians (who were ~50% of the population) and Jews fled.

And then it became a dump.

Wait. I thought these (folks) wanted to die so they could have their 72 virgins. You mean they are skeptical?

They’re really going to be skeptical now that Uncle Khomeni isn’t sending them money.

Hezbollah depends on the drug trade, gas stations (with free gas from Iran), and cash from Iran to operate.

The cash is cut off. The gas is cut off (and Israel systematically blew up their gas stations — which I find oddly hilarious). I guess that just leaves Chinese drugs.

Isn’t that the idea if you want to enter your idea of paradise? Die for Allah?
