The new face of Hizbollah
Article Abstract:
Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah is a Sayed, born in 1971 in east Beirut, who studied theology at Najaf until President Saddam Hussein expelled him. He met Ayatollah Khomeini and helped found the Hizbollah in 1982. He leads the Hizbollah in forcing Israel out of southern Lebanon. As Lebanese politics and diplomacy have failed to free any Arab land he believes that the strength of the people must overcome the aggressor with sacrifice, as in Iran.
