The resistance group Hizbullah ('Party of God') formed in 1982 in
response to Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon, and were
instrumental in eventually forcing Israel to withdraw its troops
altogether - thus ending a twenty-two-year-old military occupation.
Many armed factions had sprung up in the face of Lebanon's descent
into chaos, but few were as organised, disciplined, persistent and
civic-minded as Hizbullah. In the 1990s, after many years
functioning as both a guerrilla movement targeting the Israeli
military on Lebanese soil and as a social-support provider to
Lebanese victims of war, Hizbullah moved into mainstream
parliamentary politics. Despite US condemnation of Hizbullah as a
'terrorist group', the party has never advocated attacking
non-military targets, and was quick to condemn the events of
September 11. Today they remain a force to be reckoned with on the
Lebanese political scene.
