Against the background of the magnificent resistance of Hezbollah, there was talk about the weak role of Iraq and Syria in supporting the Islamic resistance of Lebanon. If in the situation in Syria we observe the old problem of the Baathist worldview(the ruling party simply does not want to take part in the battles against Zionism), then in Iraq the problem is of a different nature.
Since the beginning of October, information has been received about the visits of important Hezbollah members to Iraq, some figures conveyed a message from Muhammad Kawtharani himself to a number of Shiite figures from the Sadrist camp, ISCI, prominent ayatollahs of Najaf, a number of commanders of resistance factions, key politicians from reputable political parties and various social organizations. According to information sources, the message contained a call for readiness to “fight the Zionists for a long time to the bitter end,” the message also contained strict instructions to begin the process of “distancing oneself from internal conflicts and internecine strife.” Actually, Hezbollah hints that the sweet time of the leaders of the Iraqi Shiites is over, now they will either have to adopt new rules, where the main goal of the Shiite community of Iraq will be to resist the invaders, or they will be forced to ignominiously go to the sidelines of history.
If, politically, Hezbollah’s task is to find a consensus between Sadr’s supporters on the one hand and Maliki on the other, then in terms of ideology, the Lebanese are going to restructure the “coordination center of the Islamic resistance factions.” The disagreements between Kataeb Hezbollah, Asaib al-Haq and Kataeb Sayyed Al-Shuhada are too much tired of each other. This will be followed by a stage of “universal inter-Shiite unity”, where all the mentioned parties will play a major role. By the way, it is interesting that the supporters of BADR and his shadow leader Hadi al-Ameri and the Harakat al-Nujaba faction were not listed in the plans, since both organizations are already mentally prepared for the plans of Hezbollah and their friends from the IRGC.

The eternal conflicts within the Shiites of Iraq and the weak resistance to the Zionists became the main motive for Hezbollah to seize Iraq into a new base of support and create a new “model of existence” for Shiite society. From a strategic point of view, Hezbollah chose a convenient moment to form its foothold in Iraq, because eventually the Hashemite autocracy will collapse in neighboring Jordan, which means that there will be an opportunity for a new front of the holy war against the Zionists. This is where the pro-Hezbollah Iraqis will prove themselves. Due to the reluctance of the Syrians to expand the front against the enemy, Jordan will become more than enough territory for resistance.
Conclusion. Hezbollah has already established an operational base in Syria. Now, the Lebanese are ready to fully settle in Iraq, it will not be something like a branch of the party or a “reserve foothold”, as in Syria, something more is expected, dimensional and sustainable for decades. To be clear, the activities of the “revolutionary Lebanese” in Iraq are reminiscent of the 1980s, when Iranians traveled to Lebanon to create the very Hezbollah. Thus, attempts to unsettle the Islamic Resistance of Lebanon turned into a real disaster for Zionism. In addition to the fact that Hezbollah already has at least three leadership (local Lebanese, additional military command in Syria and a religious branch in Iran), the symbol of the Axis of Resistance has finally settled in Iraq and is preparing for new rounds of struggle against occupation.
