I've read the references and I don't understand how the count of Hezbollah ministers is derived. Which ministers are the two, maybe three, referred to? JiHymas@himivest.com 01:01, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Also: Is this really a good title? Hezbollah has participated in other elections; additionally, wouldn't it be better to have a new main heading "Political Activities" with this information under a sub-heading for this particular government/parliament/administration? JiHymas@himivest.com 01:05, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Just retaining the operational history here so we can piece out what is not duped here... Mceder 01:12, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
Hezbollah is believed by the United States and some other countries’ intelligence agencies to have kidnapped and tortured to death U.S. Marine Colonel William R. Higgins and the CIA station chief in Beirut, William Francis Buckley, [1] and to have kidnapped around 30 other Westerners between 1982 and 1992, including U.S. journalist Terry Anderson, British journalist John McCarthy, the Archbishop of Canterbury's special envoy Terry Waite and Irish citizen Brian Keenan. [2] Hezbollah was accused by the US government of being responsible for the April 1983 bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut that killed 63; of being behind the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, a suicide truck bombing that killed 241 U.S. marines in their barracks in Beirut in October 1983; of bombing the replacement U.S. Embassy in East Beirut on September 20, 1984, killing 20 Lebanese and two U.S. soldiers; and of carrying out the 1985 hijacking of TWA Flight 847 en route from Athens to Rome by two alleged members of Hezbollah demanding the release of Shiites in Israeli jails.

The dubious statement doesn't match Lebanese general election, 2005 -- Kendrick7 07:12, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
I removed this sentence:
'Despite no official declaration, the stated policy of the Lebanese Government has supported Hezbollah as the army of South Lebanon. [1]
Firstly, the sentence is internally contradictory - was there or wasn't there an official statement by the Lebanese government to this effect? Secondly, the NPR story - transcript here: http://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=5554992 - contains nothing which could in any way be construed as affirming that this is the stated policy of the Lebanese government.-- Lopakhin 12:04, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I have again removed the sentence and replaced it with something less definite and more logically consistent. Here is Wikipedia's guidance on citing unsourced assertions:

References
In the last revision I edited, I found duplicate named references, i.e. references sharing the same name, but not having the same content. Please check them, as I am not able to fix them automatically :)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of History of Hezbollah's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 03:15, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
