Lebanon: Ayatollah Fadlallah’s Death and the Expansion of Iranian Hegemony
July 20, 2010 |
Brig.-Gen. (ret.) Dr. Shimon Shapira
Shiite religious leader Sayyed Muhammed Hussein Fadlallah played a leading role in the increasing Islamic radicalization of Lebanese Shiites and laid the foundations for Hizbullah's ideology of violent struggle against the West and Israel. He supplied an organized doctrine for the mujahid who is ready to sacrifice his life. Yet he opposed the aspirations of Iran to establish an Islamic republic in Lebanon.
