In the Home of Hizballah
(Atlanta Journal-Constitution) David Lewis - I was invited to a huge Hizballah rally in the southern Beirut suburbs where the group's leadership is based, in celebration of the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran. A Hizballah band featuring five men in matching suits sang what seems to be the organization's No. 1 hit: "Death to Israel." The crowd sang along. Grandfathers and little kids alike knew the lyrics. Hizballah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah took the stage to wild cheering and delivered a fiery anti-Israeli and anti-American speech.
