Most Lebanese were, at one point in the past, revering Hizbollah's resistance against Israeli occupation. But what Hizbollah leaders have been doing over the last 7 years, or 2 years in particular is by no means conceivable. Their project and discourse are now a de facto jeopardy for Lebanon's march towards statehood, sovereignity as well as a serious threat to the country's relative democratic atmosphere and uniqueness in this region of the world.
