I would not expect a different position from Tikkun, but not being the pious 
sort I tend to decide who I will support based on whether they are oppressed 
or oppressor, exploited or exploiter.  Hezbollah is an organisation of the 
oppressed and exploited Shi'ite community in Lebanon.  Israel is a state 
possessed in part by the most powerful imperialist bully in the world.  One 
is not obliged to accept every aspect of their strategy as a result.
