Such intervention would signify that the war will spread across the whole region, opening the way to all powers, following the example of Turkey, Israel, Iran and Hizbullah. That would mean the whole region exploding

Historically, Hezbollah hasn't had an active presence in Thailand
will spread across the whole region, opening the way to all powers, following the example of Turkey, Israel, Iran and Hezbollah

Hezbollah and its allies cannot claim that the tribunal is U.S.-Israeli anymore and if Hezbollah wants to retain credibility in the public’s eyes, then it should recognize the court first, hand over the accused and follow up on court proceedings within legal means
The Lebanese who were never deceived by the games or talk know very well that Hezbollah recognized the legitimacy of the court today by funding it without resorting to the resignation of the government
Hezbollah is also responsible in this regard to follow up on the court's path and hand over the four accused in the killing ... to the Lebanese authorities so that [Lebanon] can fulfill its promise to the international community
