While there may currently be some Palestinian members in Hezbollah, the organization is primarily composed and led by Lebanese, Syrians, and Iranians; not Palestinians.

HEZBOLLAHBlack October, Hamas, and the PFLP are all Palestinian militant organizations.

What is one of the three most feared palestinian terrorist groups operation against Israel today?

The three most feared Palestinian Terrorist Groups are Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade.Fatah and Hezbollah are more famous than Islamic Jihad and Al-Aqsa Martyrs but do not qualify for the title "Palestinian Terrorist Group". In the case of Fatah, it has abandoned its major militant wing in favor for a more moderated police force, making it no longer a terrorist group. In the case of Hezbollah, it is primarily Syrian and Lebanese, not Palestinian.

How has Hezbollah effectively defended the Palestinian People?

Answer 1Hezbollah has perpetuated violence between the Palestinians and Israel. So far this has not done any good for anyone, but who knows, perhaps someday Israel will be destroyed, all the Jews will be killed, and the Palestinians will be happy.Answer 2Hezbollah mostly supports Lebanon against being occupied by Israel. currently parts of Lebanon like Kfarchouba, Al-Ghajar and Shebaa farms are occupied by Israel and 11,000 anti-Israel activists and fighters from Palestine and Lebanon are held in Israel prisons and 70% of Palestinians are living out of their country in poorly situation and waiting to back to their homes and lands. Hezbollah supports Palestinians by resisting against occupation and Imperialism. Hezbollah supports Palestine Resistance Movement in different ways. for example providing them technology for making home made missiles to be used against Israel attacks. Palestinians used their home made rockets against Israel. many of Hezbollah supports for Palestine Resistance fighters are secret because Israeli forces immediately terror by air attack or kidnap any known activist in Palestine or Lebanon. currently 11,000 of them are in Israel prisons. Hezbollah condemns any attack of Israel on any Palestine of Lebanon people. but western media re highly biased about Hezbollah and does not cover news about Hezbollah properly.The government of Lebanon is not controlled by Hezbollah and so Hezbollah can not solve all problems of Palestinian refugees living in Lebanon. governments of Lebanon in many cases have been in secret friendship relations with Israel. for example supporting Phalangist extremists against Hezbollah.Hezbollah according to Qur'an consider all Muslims their brothers.The believers are but brothers, so make settlement between your brothers. And fear Allah that you may receive mercy. (49:10)the Palestine Resistance movement members are both Shia and Sunni Muslims but Hezbollah consider any Palestinian a wronged who their homes are occupied by a arrogant regime and according to Islam a Muslim has duty to help any wronged even if he is not Muslim. but liberating all remaining occupied lands of Lebanon and making all resistance prisoners from Israel prisons has priority for Hezbollah. but supporting Palestine Resistance and even any wronged people all over the world is mission of Hezbollah as a Twelver Shia Islam party.Answer 3Hezbollah has often claimed to defend the Palestinian people by resisting Israeli occupation, but this resistance has not actually resulted in any gains for Palestinians. While it is certainly arguable that Hezbollah has been successful in pressuring Israel to withdraw from southern Lebanon, which was under Israeli occupation from 1982-2000, no senior Middle East scholar has ever credited Hezbollah with any of the Palestinian political or military gains vis-a-vis Israel. The Oslo Accords were a result of the First Palestinian Intifada, which had no Hezbollah involvement.In terms of the Gaza Strip, Hezbollah is tangentially related since Hamas, the occupying force in the Gaza Strip, is also a terrorist/paramilitary organization supported by Iran. However, Hamas has made no serious gains against Israel despite its posturing. Since the Hamas assumption of power in 2007, the situation for Palestinians in the Gaza has consistently deteriorated with the one exception that Palestinian fishing rights, which had been severely curtailed after the First Gazan War of 2008-2009 where minimally restored after the Second Gazan War of 2012. Between the two Gazan Wars, approximately 1500 Palestinians died with minimal Israeli casualties. Thankfully, since Hezbollah has done little to help the Palestinians in these conflicts, they cannot he held accountable for Hamas' deplorable mistake of putting its civilian population in the Israeli line of fire.As concerns politics in Lebanon, Hezbollah has actually used its political clout to ignore the Palestinians living in Lebanon (who represent nearly a tenth of the overall Lebanese population). While Hezbollah is not responsible for any of the several attacks on Palestinian Refugee Camps in Lebanon (such as Sabra, Shatilla, and Nahr el-Bared) they did not take any actions to prevent these massacres, nor did they condemn those who did. Additionally, Hezbollah has never suggested or supported a normalization of papers measure for Lebanese Palestinians. A "normalization of papers" could be as minimal as providing Lebanese Palestinians with working papers so that they could get jobs in Lebanese companies or it could be full Lebanese citizenship. Supporting a measure like this would certainly be in the Palestinian interest, but Hezbollah has seen fit to ignore this problem, which is no different than the rest of the Lebanese electorate. However, the other groups do not claim to be the defenders of the Palestinian people.


How does the Lebanese military feel about Hezboaah?

The Lebanese Military is generally wary of Hezbollah, primarily because Hezbollah is stronger than the Lebanese Military and Hezbollah takes its marching orders from Assad's Syria and Iran, not the Lebanese people, which means that Hezbollah could act in contravention to Lebanese welfare.

What do Hezbollah and Hamas have in common?

Hamas and Hezbollah are Arab Muslim Terrorist and Paramilitary Organizations. Hamas operates out of Syria and the Gaza Strip while Hezbollah operates out of Syria and Lebanon.General CharacteristicsThe most common and identifiable Hamas terrorist action is the suicide bomber who blows himself up to take out some enemies as well as himself while Hezbollah and Hamas have increasingly used missiles and rockets. These organizations tell their membership that the fight in which they are engaged is part of the holy Islamic struggle of Jihad and anyone who opposes them is not properly guided. Therefore, Hamas and Hezbollah will identify what sect of Islam they belong to and whether or not they oppose the other sects. (Hamas is avowedly Sunni, but accepts Shiites because Iran provides most of its funding. Hezbollah is Shiite and does not recognize the validity of Sunni Islam.) Most Muslim terrorists wish to inspire fear in their enemies and therefore primarily attack civilians, considering them part of the enemy. Since Hamas and Hezbollah exist in countries with a weak internal support structure, in many cases they will use their own funds to build schools, parks, hospitals, and other social services in the communities they occupy. It provides goodwill with the local inhabitants and allows them to more effectively spread whatever messages they may wish to say. Finally, Hamas and Hezbollah have all actively engaged in elections (Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine) with their own political parties. If the governments formed after these elections were not desirable to these parties, they engaged in military actions to force the national government to capitulate to their desires. In the case of Hezbollah this created a violent stand-off in Beirut and in the case of Hamas, this prompted a Palestinian Civil War in Gaza and the West Bank.
