User:Howard C. Berkowitz/Hezballah

Hezballah, meaning "party of God", is transliterated several ways, including Hezbollah and Hezb'allah. In any case, it is an radical Islamic group generally believed to be supported, but not completely controlled, by Iran.

It has been charged with the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, the 1985 hijacking of TWA Flight 847, and the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing.
