Israel assassinated Hezbollah chief Hasan Nasrallah in a Beirut suburb on Friday. Since 23 September at least 7 Hezbollah leaders have been killed in Israeli strikes on Lebanon, is this the end of the Lebanese resistance group? Or is Israel's very survival reliant on the existence of its enemies?

In the latest episode of Palestine This Week, host Nasim Ahmed and guest Mouin Rabbani provide an analysis of Israel's assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. The show opens with a detailed examination of this high-profile targeted killing, exploring its historical context within Israel's long-standing strategy of assassinations and its potential implications for regional stability.

The discussion looks into the strategic significance of Nasrallah's assassination, questioning whether such tactical victories truly bring Israel closer to its goals of security and legitimacy. Rabbani offers expert insights into Hezbollah's potential successors and the organisation's future trajectory in light of last week’s assassination.

The conversation then broadens to explore wider geopolitical ramifications, including Iran's dilemma in responding to the assassination, the role of the US in the killing, and the concept of Israel's 'forever war'. Despite decades of assassinations, killing and illegal occupation, the apartheid state is yet to find peace and security. Why is that the case? And will the latest assassinations of several senior Hezbollah members bring Israel closer to peace and security?
We also examine Zionist ideology and its reliance on the existence of enemies, offering viewers a deeper understanding of why Zionism needs a constant supply of foes to survive.
