Hawzah News Agency- In an interview with Al-Ahed news website, Saleh Al-Kamishi said the passage of two years since Nasrallah's martyrdom has not erased his presence from the arena of resistance or the conscience of the Ummah.
Al-Kamishi stressed that the passing of a year since Nasrallah's martyrdom does not mean his absence has become ordinary. "Rather, his image appears more present as the confrontation widens and as the Ummah needs a model of steadfastness, foresight and courage," he said.
'A Leader Still Present'
Al-Kamishi said what fighters achieve in the field — steadfastness, endurance and innovation in tools and tactics — is writing a new chapter in military history, stressing that resistance has never depended on the presence of a single individual, however great that leader may be.
'From Manufacturing Hope to Manufacturing Victory'
Al-Kamishi described one of Nasrallah's most prominent achievements as restoring the Ummah's faith in the possibility of resistance and its ability to achieve victory — after the image of weakness and submission to Israeli-American superiority had taken root in many minds.
"The first miracle Sayyed achieved was hope in the ability of resistance to achieve victory, especially after the 2006 experience, when the resistance established a new equation in confronting the Israeli enemy and proved that military superiority does not necessarily mean possessing the will to win," he said.
Al-Kamishi noted that a large part of the official Arab order had reached a state of submission, while speaking of confronting occupation seemed to many a vain fantasy. He cited the positions of former Lebanese President Emile Lahoud as a model of rejecting that path, before the resistance experience under Nasrallah gave that rejection field power and turned it into action capable of changing equations.
'Nasrallah: The Embodiment of Leadership in Thought and Field'
Al-Kamishi said Nasrallah's personality combined the qualities of a political leader with field insight — truthful in his positions, deep in his analyses, wise in his choices and brave in times of confrontation.
He described Nasrallah as a living embodiment of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) in wisdom, courage and boldness, stressing that these were not slogans recited on occasions but behavior he lived in politics, resistance and his relations with fighters and the Ummah.
Al-Kamishi said Nasrallah's legacy is not limited to the military victories achieved during his era, but is an intellectual, moral and human legacy through which he redefined the concept of leadership in an age of defeats — linking responsibility with sacrifice, power with insight, and victory with patience and endurance.
'A Beacon for the Free and the Oppressed'
Al-Kamishi stressed that Nasrallah was not only a Lebanese leader but became a beacon for every free, oppressed and downtrodden person — a model that transcended borders, geography and sects.
"He taught generations of fighters that the path to liberation is not paved with wishes, but with patience, will, awareness and a correct understanding of the field," he said.
Al-Kamishi said Nasrallah proved that resistance is not merely a "reaction" to occupation, but a comprehensive project capable of building new awareness and opening the way for broader transformations in the region and the world.
He said Nasrallah turned resistance into a project that went beyond the borders of direct battle with the occupier to become part of a wider struggle against the system of hegemony and exploitation — a system that seeks to keep the region's nations subordinate and weak.
'Resistance Against the Israeli-American Project'
Al-Kamishi noted that what is unfolding today is no longer a limited battle between two sides, but a broad battle linked to a political, military, cultural and economic project that seeks to subjugate the region and rearrange it to serve Israeli-American interests.
Against this project, he said, the role of resistance stands out as a force capable of shattering the image the occupier and its allies sought to establish — the image of invincibility.
Al-Kamishi said successive confrontations have highlighted the resistance's role as a power capable of exposing weaknesses within the enemy's body and demonstrating the extent of its reliance on U.S. and Western support.
He stressed that the steadfastness of fighters and the development of their capabilities — alongside technical and tactical creativity seen on the battlefield — have shown that the battle no longer proceeds according to rules set by the enemy alone, and that resistance can adapt and develop its tools and methods to the nature of the fight.
'Iran: The Strategic Mainstay of Resistance'
Al-Kamishi focused on Iran's role in supporting the resistance, saying the Islamic Republic forms the head and main pillar of the resistance system and has not limited its support to the military dimension, but extended it to cultural, scientific, engineering, technical and military fields — all while bearing heavy costs in the face of pressure, siege and threats.
He believes this support has contributed to building an environment capable of continuity and steadfastness, and that the battle the resistance fights is inseparable from a broader struggle over independent decision-making, sovereignty and the right of nations to choose their own path free from foreign dictates.
'From Sanaa to Gaza and South Lebanon: One Front'
Marking the anniversary of Nasrallah's martyrdom, Al-Kamishi recalled the martyrs of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood and the martyrs of the various resistance fronts from Sanaa to Gaza and South Lebanon.
"The blood of these martyrs converges in a single cause, and their sacrifices confirm the unity of the battle against occupation and the project of hegemony," he said.
Al-Kamishi paid tribute to the fighters still standing in the field and to everyone who struggles, perseveres and sacrifices. He also honored the resistance media, which advances alongside the battle and seeks to convey its truth in the face of a vast media system bent on distorting realities and inverting facts.
"The media battle is not marginal, but part of the confrontation itself, because what happens in the field does not have its full effect until it reaches people's awareness and the narrative the occupier and its allies tried to impose on the world is broken," he said.
'Martyrdom Is Continuation, Not an End'
The Libyan political researcher stressed that Nasrallah's martyrdom should not be read as the end of a leader's path, but as a new station in the path of resistance.
"Martyrdom did not fold up Nasrallah's experience, but gave it a broader dimension and turned that leader into a symbol that generations pass down and restore at every station of confrontation," he said.
Al-Kamishi said martyrs leave behind "models" rather than "voids" to the extent of their greatness, and Nasrallah's value lies in leaving generations a school of jihad, patience, steadfastness and perseverance — a school that does not stop at his person but flows through every fighter who carries the same cause and continues the path.
He said what Nasrallah left behind is inseparable from the broader path of resistance — a resistance that reread Islam from a standpoint of "action" and "liberation," distinguishing between an Islam carrying the values of dignity, honor and standing with the oppressed, and readings used to justify submission, division and misguidance.
Al-Kamishi said remembering Nasrallah is not merely an occasion to revisit the past, but an occasion to summon his project in the present: the project of resistance, the unity of the Ummah, the rejection of hegemony, adherence to Palestine, and faith that the path to freedom, however long, will surely find those who walk it.
In closing, Al-Kamishi saluted Nasrallah and all the martyrs of the resistance, stressing that their blood has not been wasted and that the path they paved with their sacrifices will remain open for generations as long as there are those in the Ummah who believe that dignity is not granted, freedom is not begged for, and Palestine is worthy of lives sacrificed in its cause.
