Despite being hit hard, Hezbollah is rebuilding and rearming. Lebanon is unwilling to disarm Hezbollah because Shiites would see it as a threat to all Lebanese Shiites and it would cause a civil war. A localized war for a few months against Israel is a lot better than a civil war that could be much longer and destroy much of the country. Hezbollah sees their ultimate enemy as the United States which they see as the font of corruption. Hezbollah cooperates with anti-American elements and governments in Latin America.
