I'm going to tell everyone about an event that was very tiring and incredibly stressful for me. Yes, I was arrested by Hezbollah. The mistakes I made in Lebanon and the consequences could have been really costly. But even if the people I am very lucky with do not understand me correctly. Even if it takes hours.
So what is this Hezbollah?
First of all, I must state that it has nothing to do with the terrorist group Hezbollah that existed in Turkey.
Hezbollah in Lebanon is a Shiite Islamic political and military organization founded in the early 1980s with Iranian support. The Arabic name of Hezbollah is "Hizb Allah" which means "Party of Allah". It has a strong presence in Lebanon and some other regions, particularly Syria and Iran.
Purpose of Establishment: Hezbollah was established to fight against Israel's invasion of Lebanon and the protection of the interests of the Shiite community in Lebanon. As an Islamist movement, it has adopted the goal of creating a society based on Islamic principles.
Military Wing: It should be noted that Hezbollah is not only a political structure, but also a strong military wing. It has been described as a terrorist organization especially by Western countries because of its resistance and armed actions against Israel.
Political Presence: Hezbollah started to be represented as a political party in the Lebanese parliament in 1992 and has become a strong presence in the political arena as well. He now holds important ministerial positions in the Lebanese government.
Religion and Identity: Religion and Shiite identity play an important role in Hezbollah's activities. A significant portion of the Shiite Muslim community in Lebanon supports Hezbollah. However, there are different views and perceptions among other segments of Lebanese society.
Its Regional Role: Hezbollah is not only influential within Lebanon, but is also seen as a regional actor. He especially supported the Bashar Assad regime in the Syrian Civil War and established strong ties with Iran. It also has tensions with countries like Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Disputes: Hezbollah has caused various disputes on domestic and foreign policy issues. In Lebanon, some argue that Hezbollah's armed wing should be the only legitimate armed force of the Lebanese army, while others demand disarmament. At the same time, the West and some Arab countries claim that Hezbollah supports terrorism and creates instability in the region.
In conclusion, Hezbollah is a complex organization with profound implications for the complex political and security dynamics in Lebanon and the region. While it is seen as a symbol of resistance by its supporters, it is described as a terrorist organization by its critics. Therefore, it is important to consider various perspectives and sources when evaluating Hezbollah.
