Yes. However, Hezbollah is a very complex organization and has numerous additional wings, some which are not militant at all.
Hezbollah's most common and identifiable Muslim terrorist action is the suicide bomber who blows himself up to take out some enemies as well as himself. Additionally, Hezbollah leadership tells its 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. Since Hezbollah exists in countries with a weak internal support structure (Lebanon and Syria), it 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, Hezbollah has all actively engaged in Lebanese elections with its own unique political party, on some occasions bullying the Lebanese people into voting for them. This created a violent stand-off in Beirut, between the elected government and Hezbollah not wanting to be outside of the ruling coalition.

None of those (Lebanon was occupied from 1978-2000). -- In other words, all four regions (Gaza Strip, Golan Heights, Lebanon, and the West Bank) were occupied.
Clarification on Answer
Yes, I remember when it happened. I remember Israeli armor pushing aside UN personnel to invade and occupy the SOUTHERNpart of Lebanon, but I never heard anything about Israel occupying the entire country of Lebanon. Also, unless I am terribly mistaken, the Gaza Strip was acquired from Egypt in the Six Day War.
