En 1989, Hezbolá suscribió junto al resto de los partidos libaneses el acuerdo de Taif con el cual se empezaría a poner fin a la guerra civil. Desde entonces este movimiento se ha ido incorporando al sistema parlamentario. De acuerdo al profesor Norton, éste se ha convertido en el "más efectivo y eficiente partido en Líbano" contando con "una red social extremadamente impresionante". Hezbolá cuenta con numerosas estaciones de radio, escuelas y centros de salud. Sus hospitales tienen la reputación de ser mejores que los nationales y estar abiertos a pacientes no chiitas. El Partido de Dios ha venido operando una evolución ideológica. Inicialmente no aceptaban a Líbano como una entidad separada, pues quería formar una gran república de todo el islam. Postulaban un gobierno de los juristas...

This is a personal loss for Nasrallah," says Robert Baer, an ex-Central Intelligence Agency officer who tracked Mughnieh in the 1980s. "[[Hassan Nasrallah] and Mughnieh] are basically the ones who made Hizbullah, in the sense of driving the West out [of Lebanon] in the 1980s, then turning that power against the Israelis" occupying south Lebanon. "This is something that Hizbullah cannot let pass. Mughnieh was too much of a symbol," says Timur Goksel, lecturer on international relations in Beirut and a former United Nations official in south Lebanon. "I don't think Hizbullah will go for a big bombing, probably an assassination of a high profile target. Some analysts suggest that Damascus may have seen advantage in delivering up Mughnieh to his enemies to curry favor with the U.S. at a t...

Although Hizbullah's popularity in the Shi'i community is at an all time high, some in the majority anti-Syrian Lebanese Parliament want it to disarm. The members mostly represent Christian and Druze minorities as well as the more sizable Sunni Muslim community and say that Lebanon's army should be the only armed group in the country. They fear in part that the Shi'i militia will use its military strength to wrest away control from the government. AP reported, "Faris Soueid, a Christian politician close to [Fuad Siniora], insisted the government will not bend to Hizbullah pressure. 'I believe it will not scare the government of Fuad Siniora', he said on Al-Arabiya television. 'It will not fall, not in the street and not because of political speeches'. This is a historical day for all ...

BEIRUT, Lebanon -- Israel ordered its embassies on high alert and the FBI put U.S. terror squads on guard to protect Jewish institutions after Hezbollah's leader vowed Thursday to retaliate anywhere in the world for the assassination of one of its top commanders. Zionists, if you want this kind of open war, let the whole world listen: Let this war be open," Hassan Nasrallah told a throng of fist-waving mourners who attended the funeral of Imad Mughniyeh, the mastermind of terror spectaculars that claimed hundreds of American lives.

Ann Mayer, for example, claims that other Islamic organizations and terrorist groups throughout the world used similar tactics to secure similar political goals.5 If the Western press gives Hezbollah any thought at all, it is only to consider it a Shi'ite terrorist group with ties to Iran, and part of a highly irrational and dangerous pan-Islamic threat. When Hezbollah actually carried out its suicide attacks, Western reporters saw little more than the "villainy" of the perpetrators.6 But other Islamic groups before Hezbollah did not use suicide bombing in the 1980s, so the supposedly inherent villainy of the Islamic threat does not sufficiently explain Hezbollah's move to suicide bombing.

Since the mid-2000s, hostility between Iran and the United States has intensified, and some see the two nations heading toward a military confrontation. Iran's nuclear program and association with terrorist organizations are the main drive for this rising tension. This study focuses on the latter. Specifically, it examines Tehran's ties to Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Iraqi insurgents. Nevertheless, the author concludes that although American and Iranian interests are very different, they are not necessary mutually exclusive.
