Okay, that helps. I know of the Iranian connections, their terrorist origins and tendencies, and how Hamas gutted the democratic system once it was elected. I looked up Hezbollah. They hold 15 of the 128 seats in the Parliament of Lebanon and were noted as "the most powerful single political movement in Lebanon" in 2008 (when it had 14 seats).
Allegiances and politics aside, these groups do represent people and are responsible for their well being. This is so rarely discussed in the media. We never see news of discussions with other governments (or other parties within Lebanon).
