Deadly Nasrallah Fish Threaten Israel | Can Kill With One Sting
A deadly fish named after the Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah is making waves in Israel and Lebanon
Israelis are being warned about the "Nasrallah" fish that swims the waters of Israel's Mediterranean coast
The fish are "so dangerous, one sting can kill a person or leave them paralyzed for weeks," said Moti Mendelson, a marine researcher. "There are many of them--[just] like Hezbollah soldiers."
In a speech last night, the Hezbollah leader acknowledged he heard about his namesake fish.
" Israeli researchers surprisingly call this fish handsome and cute, apparently they think it about me. But if I have poison – I am ready to sting. We are all ready to sting the occupying enemy who occupies our land and take our saints," he said.
The more serious ecological issue is the population explosion of the catfish-like fish which migrated through the Suez Canal from the Red Sea.
The Israeli government did not respond when it was asked which posed the greater threat, the land based Nasrallah or the aquatic Nasrallah?
