File under: Hezbollah

#1 If these Christians and the Druze are enlisting in a Lebanese Shiite terror group, they are not exactly being true to their faiths for a variety of reasons, and show great naivety. The Israelis are the only ones in the region wiling to protect their interests. That Hezbollah is reporting this makes it dubious. I'd be interested in hearing more from others sources.

#5 I doubt many of these folk are actually enlisting w Hezbollah.

The fact that Hezb is offering free weapons and a salary is a recruitment tool that has major risks for them.
