Interesting what a Muslim journalist has to say.

Why Arabs Loathe Hezbollah
By Khaled Abu Toameh April 23, 2015 , 10:00 am

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, Iran’s protégé and partner in the Middle East, seems to be leading the Lebanese people into another catastrophe.

In 2006, Nasrallah initiated a war with Israel that wrought havoc on the Lebanese, after an ambush by Hezbollah in Israeli territory that left three Israeli soldiers dead and two abducted.

Now the Lebanese people are about to pay another heavy price – this time because of Nasrallah’s involvement in the Syrian civil war and his strong condemnations of Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries over the conflict in Yemen.

Russian influence over Hizbullah may reduce chances of escalation with Israel
4 February 2016 - Russia's growing influence over the Iran-Syria-Hizbullah alliance may help prevent any sudden escalations with Israel, according to recent Israel Defense Forces (IDF) assessments.

The IDF views the Russian and US military presence in the region as stabilising influences that can counter the instability caused by the proliferation of heavily armed sub-state actors in Syria. According to this view, Russia's ongoing dialogue with Hizbullah could restrain the Lebanese Shia group from responding to perceived Israeli airstrikes with attacks that could escalate into a conflict. In December 2015, Israel reportedly launched an airstrike that killed the notorious Hizbullah operative Samir Kuntar in a Damascus suburb. Hizbullah responded with a relatively limited bomb attack on heavily armoured IDF vehicles in the disputed Mount Dov (Shebaa Farms) border area on the Israeli-Lebanese border.

The IDF believes that the Russian military presence in Syria is having a moderating effect on the Lebanese militant group Hizbullah.​

The IDF assesses that, behind closed doors, Hizbullah's leadership is torn by dilemmas when it comes to formulating responses to such developments. The IDF also believes that reports of Russia arming Hizbullah to make it a more effective ally in Syria are baseless. Russia's influence is not the only moderating factor; Hizbullah is also growing more affiliated to the Lebanese state, making it more accountable, although its influence on domestic politics is also growing as a result. It is also suffering some budgetary problems, such paying salaries on time, due to Iran's failure to transfer around 10% of the group's USD1 billion annual budget.

Meanwhile, it currently maintains 6,000-7,000 fighters in Syria, according to IDF estimates, and 1,300 have been killed there, twice the figure it suffered during the 2006 war with Israel. Some 10,000 Hizbullah fighters have been injured in Syria. In light of the fact that Hizbullah has an estimated total conscripted fighting force of 20,000, and roughly the same number of reserve fighters, those figures are highly significant to Hizbullah's order of battle.

Both "Israel" and Hizbullah with Iran have the same sectarian agenda in the region.
There was peace in the region before the conquest of iranian shiite minority and israeli jewish minority.
Guess why "Israel" let iranian militias enter near Golan without doing riposte in the region?!

Ok getting back to Your allegation of "peace in the region" ---I assume that
"region" means Lebanon. When was their peace in Lebanon and when did
the Jewish minority "Let Hezbollah mercenaries"
whose prime directive is 'murder
jews' conquere southern Lebanon?

Because they are not Sunni?

Monte claims that jews LET Hezbollah conquer Lebanon because Hezbollah is
not sunni -----true----Hezbollah is an Iranian controlled militia consisting of SHIITE
muslims. There are some Shiites in Lebanon---but Iran added more and an
Iranian Shiite murderer for THE MAHDI -----named nuskharahallah

 

[irosie91]

Because they are not Sunni?

Monte----it is not clear to me what YOUR COMMENT MEANS. Arabs hate Hezbollah because Hezbollah is not SUNNIS? ------ok ------Hezbollah is Shiite----
essentially terrorists working for IRAN because they are Shiites. Shiites hate sunni ---in fact ethnic sunni arabs in IRAN are subjected to persecution for being both ARAB AND SUNNI-----------It is important that people know that the deadly animosity
between "ARABS" ----and "IRANIAN" is based on a 1400 year running feud between the two sects--sunni and Shiite. --------and--that feud is CERTAINLY not cured by the FILTH OF BAATHISM, The center of SHIITISM is Iran but there are Shiites in lots of places that
have muslim populations. Wherever they are-----they do HATE each other

Hezbollah is the political party in Lebanon many Shiites vote for. Baathism was the secular movement that tried to mitigate confessional hatred by inviting all religions to become members, after all one of founders was a Christian.

Hezbollah is a wide spread IRANIAN SPONSORED Shiite project devoted to Imperialist ambitions of IRAN ----including its ambition to enhance the POWER of
Shiite islam over sunni islam and Shiite islam over the world It is so openly
imperialistic that ACHMADINEJAD-----DECLARED in the UN----that his brand of
islam is THE RELIGION FOR THE ENTIRE WORLD. Baathism is ---the arab national socialist movement FOR ARABS------ie arab Nazism. --------it is opened
to all those who identify as "ARABS" including muslims and any Christians who
so identify------ARAB NATIONALISM -----socialist------ARAB UBER ALLES

Baathism is secular and open to all religions. The founder was Christian.

the founder of Baathism was Christian like Charles Darwin was the founder of Nazism. Baathism today has nothing to do with Michel Aflaq who sought an
ENLIGHTENED ARAB SOCIETY in the middle east as opposed to the dark ages
mess it was and remains. It morphed into an ARAB UBER ALLES Nazi cult
to the same extent that Hitler's cult was DEUTCHLAND UBER ALLES.
Saddam Hussein murdered tens if not hundreds of thousands of SHIITES AND
KURDS in the name of BAATHISM ------kids lay dead in the gutters of northern
Iraq------rotting in the sun for the GLORY OF BAATHISM-------Baathist Assad is mass murderer

Can you deny that Syria is goveverned by sectarian alawite minority and Lebanon by sectarian chiite minority?

Assad is Alawite, but the Government is made up of other minorities and Sunnis. If the Sunnis were in charge there would only be Sunni in the Government, non-Sunnis would not be officers in the military, and all the churches would be demolished under Saudi orders.

Lebanon is not ruled by Shiites although they are probably the plurality. The Government is split along religious lines, a certain religion is the President, a certain religion is the PM, etc., etc.
