Omschrijving
THE DEFINITIVE ACCOUNT OF THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL NON-STATE ACTOR.
From the rubble of the 1982 Israeli invasion to the halls of power in Beirut and the battlefields of Syria, Hezbollah's Arsenal traces the terrifying evolution of the "Party of God."
They are no longer just a militia. They are a nation in waiting.
In the summer of 1982, Israeli tanks rolled into Lebanon with a promise of peace. Instead, they birthed their deadliest adversary. What began as a ragtag band of guerrillas in the Bekaa Valley has evolved into a hybrid superpower—a "State Within a State" that commands an army stronger than many nations, a social welfare network that rivals the government, and a financial empire that defies global sanctions.
In Hezbollah's Arsenal, Ivo Vichev provides a chilling, comprehensive anatomy of the organization that rewrote the rules of asymmetric warfare. Drawing on decades of conflict history and deep strategic analysis, this book peels back the veil of secrecy covering the Middle East's most sophisticated shadow state.
INSIDE THE BOOK, YOU WILL DISCOVER:
The Genesis of Terror: How the 1983 Marine Barracks bombing signalled the arrival of a new, suicidal form of warfare that would force superpowers to retreat. The Architecture of a Parallel State: Beyond the AK-47s, discover the "soft power" that makes Hezbollah untouchable—the hospitals, schools, construction firms, and interest-free loan associations that win hearts and minds where the Lebanese state has failed. The Accountants of Jihad: A deep dive into the murky world of illicit finance. Follow the money trail from the diamond mines of West Africa and the drug fields of the Bekaa Valley to the banking havens of Beirut, revealing how the organization funds its billion-dollar operations. The Intelligence War: Step into the shadows with the "Ghost Warriors." Learn how Hezbollah's counter-intelligence units hunt Israeli spies, construct massive underground tunnel networks, and maintain a communications grid that keeps them one step ahead of the Mossad. The Regional Chessboard: From the "Divine Victory" of 2006 to the blood-soaked intervention in Syria, witness how Qasem Soleimani and Hassan Nasrallah built the "Axis of Resistance," transforming a local Lebanese militia into Iran's primary instrument of regional power projection. The Coming War: A terrifying analysis of the "Unity of Fronts" strategy. With an estimated arsenal of 150,000 rockets and precision-guided missiles capable of striking every inch of Israel, Vichev outlines the scenarios for the next catastrophic conflict—a war that will not be fought for meters of land, but for the survival of nations.WHY THIS BOOK MATTERS NOW
As the Middle East teeters on the brink of a new, multi-front conflagration, understanding Hezbollah is no longer optional—it is a matter of survival. This is not just a history book; it is a blueprint of the modern geopolitical landscape. It reveals how non-state actors are challenging the sovereignty of nations and how the "Party of God" has become the pivot point upon which the future of the region turns.
Comprehensive, meticulously researched, and written with the pace of a geopolitical thriller, Hezbollah's Arsenal is essential reading for policy analysts, military historians, and anyone seeking to understand the unseen mechanisms of power in the Middle East.
"A masterpiece of unintended consequences... The Party of God has arrived, and the Middle East will never be the same."
