Nasrallah also called on Muslims to unite to protect the holy Muslim site, the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, against what he said was an Israeli threat.
''This is not scare mongering or exaggerating, there is a real and serious danger facing this mosque and this holy site. And this is the responsibility of all the Muslims world-wide, not just the residents of Jerusalem alone or the people of Palestine alone or the Arabs alone, it is responsibility of all the Muslims in the world. It would be the ultimate catastrophe and shame to happen upon the one billion people of Muslims to have one of their holiest sites and blessed mosques to be desecrated or Judaized or destroyed,'' he said, speaking via video link to thousands of supporters who gathered in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
