A Book On Hizbullah That Deserves Your Attention

We have often quoted Elijah J. Magnier’s reports from Syria and Iraq. His insight and access to the various actors on the ground is unique. Yesterday he posted this request:

Elijah J. Magnier‏ @ejmalrai – 7:06 PM – 9 Feb 2018
I’m raising money for Writing My Book on Hezbollah. Every contribution helps, whatever the amount. Be my partner in this project! I can’t do it without you. Click to Donate

Originally from Brussels Magnier reported from Beirut during the Lebanese civil war. During the U.S. war on Iraq and the following occupation he lived in Baghdad and Najaf. Over the last years he has covered the war on Syria and against the Islamic State.

While other writers sit in tinker tanks far away from the front, Elijah is there and talks with the relevant people.

Hezbollah: The Unlikely Peacemakers
From Domestic Resistance To A Regional Army  Hezbollah’s very existence arouses passion, and it is criticised as much for its alleged faults as for its achievements. As a war zone correspondent, I am privileged to have watched in person the creation and development of Hezbollah since 1982. I have met and interacted with many of its commanders during the last decades from Lebanon, to Bosnia, Iran, Syria and Iraq, and shared aspects of its activities on the ground, its weakness and strength. My unique experience (1982-2017), my inside information are of vital importance and need to be shared – through my book. Now I am ready to start writing but I can’t do it without your donation. Whatever your views or allegiances, understanding this organisation has huge and surprising implications.

The book is expected – hopefully – to be published first in English and later in two more languages: Arabic and French.

Magnier’s insight of Hizbullah will become an indispensable source for anyone interested in the modern history of the Middle East.
