Hezbollah's efforts to contain, rather than terminate, the low-level struggle with Israel have elicited praise and condemnation from across Lebanon. The schism dates back to the 1975-1990 civil war when political groupings were divided along class and sectarian lines in favour or opposition to the Palestinian armed struggle against Israel, which was undertaken from Lebanon. Now, as Israel threatens all-out war against Iran-backed Hezbollah, sectarian tensions are rising.
