Despite containing controversial issues, this article was applaused for achieving neutrality, unbias and NPOV. It deserves more attention and even the FA status. CG 14:59, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
- The line that reads "There may also have been (attempted) terrorist attacks against Hezbollah" is a loaded one, at least IMO. It is speculative in nature and implies multiple attacks, but cites only one. Otherwise the article looks decent. Are there any actual numerical figures on the finances of this group? Thanks. :) — RJH 17:15, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- In order to make FA status, the copyright status of the images needs to be straightened out. In particular, since Image:Hizb1.jpg is used under fair use, a rationale for the use on Hezbollah needs to be added to the image description page. Wikipedia:Image description page#Fair use rationale has details on what needs to be added.
- Also, I'm concerned about the {{PD}} tag on Image:BND Hezbollah.jpg. What is the reasoning for it being public domain? As a screenshot of a news program, I'd expect it to be copyrighted. --Carnildo 05:19, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
- The article is lacking in a few ways. It's mostly focused on listing Hizbullah's military operations, but gives no analysis as to how Hizbullah was so much more successful than other resistance organisations. Nor for that matter does it mention Hizbullah's attacks on political opponents in Lebanon.
- It also should give more weight to Hizbullah's ideological tendencies, social activities and its participation in Lebanese politics, which in the article as it stands are completely overshadowed by the military issues.
- Finally, there is a bizarre and unsourced claim that the UN helped Hizbullah abduct Israeli soldiers.Palmiro 14:04, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
