Achcar, Gilbert and Warschawski, Michel (2007) The 33-Day War: Israel’s War on Hezbollah in Lebanon and its Consequences. Boulder: Paradigm Publishers; London: Saqi.
Abstract
This book assesses the causes and consequences of the impact on the recent Middle East war. The authors describe the popular basis of Hezbollah in Lebanon among the Shiites, but also its relation to the country's other religious communities and political forces. They analyze the regional roles of Syria, Iran, and Hamas as well as the politics of the United States and Europe. The authors dissect the strategic and political background behind recent actions taken by Israel; the impact of Israel's incursion into Lebanon and effects on Lebanon's population -- and the consequences of the war on Israel polity and society.
