What does Hezbollah say their goals are? What does the United States and/or Israel say Hezbollah's goals are?

Question

I have to write this paper on the Hezbollah, and a couple of the questions are what the Hezbollah say their goals are and what the United States and Israel say their goals are. I'm not sure how to find it. I looked it up online but couldn't find much. Any ideas where I can find more information on it?

Answer 1

This may help you with the US and Israeli positions http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Government/Speeches+by+Israeli+leaders/2006/Joint+press+conference+by+FM+Livni+and+Secy+of+State+Rice+13-Sep-2006.htm

Hezbollah's goals are simple -the destruction of the State of Israel - although they claim otherwise and lie about their reason from coming into existance http://almashriq.hiof.no/lebanon/300/320/324/324.2/hizballah/statement01.html

I would look for articles from the nytimes http://www.nytimes.com/ for the best coverage on the middle east as well as American, Israeli, and the various Arab points of view.
