BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

US Vice President Kamala Harris said Wednesday she was "scared as heck" that Donald Trump would return to the White House in the November election and urged Democrats to "fight back."

Her comments came after Trump won on Monday in the Iowa caucuses, the first step in the Republican nomination race to challenge President Joe Biden later this year.

"I am scared as heck, which is why I'm traveling our country... we should all be scared," she told The View show on the ABC network.

But the 59-year-old Harris added, "We don't run away from something when we're scared, we fight back against it."

Harris was responding to a question about reports former president Barack Obama was concerned with the Biden campaign, and to comments by ex-first lady Michelle Obama saying she was "terrified" of a second Trump term.

According to a recent ABC News/Ipsos survey, Trump leads his Republican opponents in key popularity indicators as the 2024 primary season begins, while Biden's job approval rating has dipped to the lowest rating for any president in the last 15 years.

A DailyMail/J.L Partners poll also revealed that six in ten people, including almost one-third of Democrats, believe Biden should not run for president in 2024.

Biden has stepped up direct attacks on Trump recently, warning that the twice-impeached former president -- who faces 91 criminal indictments -- poses a threat to "US democracy".

A recent poll measuring Harris' popularity among Americans revealed that the Vice President's approval rating dropped by over 5% since January, going from 41.7% to 36.3%. Another poll analysis showed lower approvals, as 55% of voters disapproved of Harris' term, making her critically more unfavorable than Biden, who himself holds a record for being the least approved US president.
