Hizballah’s slogan displayed on its flag is: the "Islamic Resistance in Lebanon". That implies that the militia is part of a global Islamic Resistance operating in Lebanon. Its agenda and interests are not necessarily those of the Lebanese people and certainly not those of the Christians in Lebanon. This was reiterated in Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's (no relation to me) speech on the anniversary of Eid El-Mawled last week, when he stated that his goals were to liberate Al-Aksa mosque. As a Lebanese, we had enough liberation movements and we suffered enough from the wars of others.
Therefore I say to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, take your men and go to Al-Quds if you want to fight there. Do not fight from Lebanon.
And I think it is time for the Lebanese government to disarm and disband Hizballah.

Yes indeed, we should convince Hizballah to gracefully disarm. We have to look at our future and the future of our children. We don't want to liberate Palestine, it is their job to do it. What we have paid for this cause is enormous and huge, while all other arab countries were prospering at the time we were burning. Enough is enough. Japan caused much more problem for USA at the economical level than at the military level, we should focus on craeting a new country, a country that believes in democracy and the human values. A country that believes that by educating its children and provide them job opportunities and political freedom to express themselves, it can face Israel.

I agree with you all brothers.
Assalam, true peace will be upon us when we free our country from these warlords.
My sympathy goes for the palestinians, for their leaders in the past were like ours today and look where they led them.
we can't let our people be dragged to its demise by a bunch of maniacs who know only one policy: kill, kill.

What is the best solution to Hezbollah?
How do you propose to disband it? Are the Lebanese willing to go to war over that? Wouldn't it become a sectarian war again?
Would it be a good idea for the US to put sanctions on the government of Lebanon to force it to root out all terrorist organizations from the country? Would that work to disband Hezbollah?

We should not look at Hizbollah as a terrorist group, because simply it is not ! It is a group of people who fought and sacrificed their lives to liberate their occupied part of the country and we should thank them for that. However, we should discuss with them their military future. In my opinion their military quest is over and they should be convinced and proud to have played a major role in the israeli withdrwal from lebanon, and now we all must move to a new phase. In this new phase, Hizbollah should leave the military quest and become a political party. By experience we know that the existence of armed group other than the lebanese army will lead sooner or later to problems....
Concerning the so called "balance of terror", I am not convinced that this strategy from now on is going to be useful, because the israelis will consider themselves protecting their own country and will be able to hurt us hard and deep. So the tens of "katiushia" rockets that will be launched for retaliation won't be effective...

Is it a scandal, an American trick, or is Hezbollah narco-trafficking?

'Hezbollah drugs ring' broken up

Reported by the BBC, June 22, 2005 (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4117960.stm)

Police in Ecuador say they have broken up an international drugs ring which was raising money for the Islamic militant group, Hezbollah.
The authorities have declined to give details of the gang's alleged links with the group, but say it was sending Hezbollah up to 70% of its profits.
Ecuadorean officials say the drugs network was run by a Lebanese restaurant owner in the capital, Quito. Officials are hailing it as a success in both the war on drugs and on terror.
Arrests abroad
Along with the restaurant owner, identified as Rady Zaiter, who was arrested in Colombia last week, six other suspects were also detained in Ecuador.
They are said to originate from Algeria, Ecuador, Lebanon, Nigeria and Turkey.
The police investigation, codenamed Operation Damascus, led to the arrests of a further 19 people in Brazil and the United States.
Police say that the gang were obtaining cocaine from neighbouring Colombia and trafficking it to Europe, the Middle East and the rest of South America.
The drugs were either hidden in suitcases with false bottoms or in the stomachs of couriers. The BBC's Elliot Gotkine says airport officials are said to have been bribed to turn a blind eye. Ecuadorean police say that each drugs shipment was worth $1m and that up to 70% of the profits went to the Islamic militant group Hezbollah.

With the support of nearly all shi3as and some non-shi3as, Hezbollah will proudly stay in Lebanon. And what else? Yali bi arib 3ala sele7 il hizib edi la7 ne2taa3on :) I urge you do not mess with them ;) btw if you really cared for Lebanon, Hezbollah arms wont bother you. Buts it’s a –why should their party be armed and successful, and getting alliances etc, and our party sucks low, with one guy in prison, the other on the edge of his grave etc etc. ;)

fou2 rasak 2a3dein! ;) labayka ya hizbollah! labayka ya nasrallah! al mawit li israel et al qudso lana ;) how was that on ur nerves?? ;)

There will come a time where many will die,
When the ground will shake and the skies will cry.
But out of the darkness will rise a light,
A servant of Allah, full of wisdom and might.

I agree. Hezbollah has turned into an ugly malignancy that is spreading and risks eating the whole society. It must be stopped today before tomorrow.
They kill in the name of Islam, ; they traffic narcotics in the name of Islam; tomorrow, we'll find they trade in "white slaves" in the sex industry in the name of Islam.
Their mission is to hijack the creative potential of the Lebanese Shi3a youths and turn them to self-destruction. All they are doing is preparing young men and women to commit suicide: no education except the messages of their leaders, no outlook except war on Israel and the ennemies of Hezbollah.
I say, it is time for Hezbollah to go.

lebanon419: I am itnterested in your opinion on the following matters:
1) would it be right to presume that you are a Shiite Muslim?
2) as such, how much do you feel that Hezbollah represents your aspiration and dreams?
3) do you feel that Hezbollah represents the aspirations of the Shiite community in Lebanon? If not all of the community, do you feel it represents a majority (>50%) of the Lebanese Shiite? or a minority (<50%)? I know you may not have hard data on the topic, but I am interested in learning more about your personal and perhaps community perceptions?
4) reading your posts (the ones in English that I could read), it is obvious that you support even advocate the agenda of Hezbollah. Would you care to elaborate on that? Do you support all of Hezbollah's agenda? Political (would you care to explain in what sense)? Military (how so)? Economical (again here I would appreciate a detailed input)? Social (Health care, education, interactions with other communities)?
5) There seems to be a tendency in Shiite societies to favor a clerical leadership over a civilian one. I can cite the founding leadership of the Amal movement, the khomeini revolution, Iran today, the Shiite community in Iraq and Hezbollah in Lebanon; correct me if I have a wrong perception. As a Shiite Muslim, do you think that the Shiite community would be best served by a clerical leadership or do you think a civilian leadership may fair better? Either way, why?
If anyone else has answers to these questions, please feel free to reply.

In the interest of full disclosure, I am not Lebanese; but I am a friend of Lebanon and of the Lebanese people.

لجان للأمر بالمعروف
والنهي عن المنكر

في ظاهرة لم يألفها المجتمع اللبناني من قبل، وتثير التساؤلات، قرر <<اللقاء العلمائي الأول>> الذي نظمه القسم الثقافي ل<<حزب الله>> في الجنوب في بلدة دردغيا، تحت عنوان <<الأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر>> الدعوة إلى <<ضرورة انبثاق لجنة للأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر في كل بلدة وشمول هذه اللجنة كل أطياف المجتمع وتنوّعاته، إلى جانب جعل أسبوع خاص للأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر من كل عام لمتابعة قضاياه وتوجيه خطاب من قبل علماء الدين وأئمة الجوامع والجمعيات والمنتديات الفكرية والثقافية للتنديد بظواهر الفساد المتفشية في مجتمعاتنا

حزب الله يوضح مسألة
<<النهي عن المنكر>>

أوضح مصدر إعلامي في حزب الله انه بعدما تداولت بعض الصحف خبرا حول لقاء علمائي انعقد في بلدة دردغيا تحت عنوان الأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر، نوضح أن هذا اللقاء المقصود لم يكن إلا اجتماعا فكريا وثقافيا لعلماء دين ناقشوا خلاله مسألة الأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر كواجب، للعلماء دور أساسي فيه بإطار وظيفتهم الشرعية والأخلاقية تجاه مجتمعهم يمارس بالحكمة والموعظة الحسنة من خلال حضورهم بين الناس. وهذا الواجب يعبّر عن طبيعة الدور الإنساني والاجتماعي لعالم الدين، المسلم وغير المسلم، في إطار بيئته التي ينتمي إليها. وبالتالي إن تصوير الأمر بالشكل الذي ورد في بعض التعليقات وتحميله أكثر من حقيقته الواضحة هو أمر في غير محله على الإطلاق

Hizballah is orchestrating attacks against US Marines in Baghadad.
Now that the Hizballah is in government in Lebanon, do the Lebanese endorse these attacks against the US?

Here the full story off the CNN website:

بغداد: بدء "الضربة السريعة" ضد المسلحين
1358 (GMT+04:00) - 06/08/05

دورية أمريكية في العراق

بغداد، العراق (CNN) -- أعلنت القوات الأمريكية الجمعة بدء حملة عسكرية جديدة غربي العراق، هي الأخيرة ضمن سلسلة عمليات تستهدف المسلحين والمقاتلين الأجانب في محافظة الأنبار، لكنها ليست رداً على مصرع 21 عنصراً من قوات مشاة البحرية "المارينز" في مدينتي حديثة وهيت خلال الأسبوع الماضي.

وقال الفريق ستيف بويلان، مدير المركز الإعلامي المشترك، إن العملية التي بدأت الأربعاء قبل الهجومين اللذين شنهما مسلحون يومي الاثنين والأربعاء وأسفرا عن مصرع 28 جندياً أمريكياً.

ويبلغ قوام القوة المشاركة في العملية الجديدة، التي أطلق عليها اسم "الضربة السريعة"، حوالي 1000 عنصر من قوات المارينز والجيش العراقي.

وجاء في البيان العسكري إن هدف "الضربة السريعة" هو استئصال المسلحين والمقاتلين الأجانب من مناطق حديثة وحقلانية والبروانة، وهي المناطق التي أفادت الاستخبارات العسكرية أن المسلحين ينشطون فيها.

وفي الوقت نفسه، تبدي القوات الأمريكية اهتماماً خاصاً بتطور المواد المتفجرة القوية، مثل تلك التي استخدمت في قتل عناصر المارينز الأربعة عشر بالقرب من حديثة يوم الأربعاء الماضي.

يذكر أن الشحنات الناسفة هذه تتسبب في حدوث انفجار مركّز بهدف إحداث اختراق في العربات المدرعة.

وثمة نظرية بين ضباط الاستخبارات الأمريكية مفادها أن الشحنات المتفجرة القوية هذه يصنعها عناصر من حزب الله، ويتم تهريبها إلى العراق.
