So what’s in it for Hassan Nasrallah to back Assad in the Syrian Civil War?

I guess it is the Shia Crescent. Simply put.

Not saying I agree with this, just posting: “Nasrallah Vows to Win Syria War, Defeat ‘U.S.-Takfiri Scheme’”, so I looked up Takfiri, which is a “bad Sunni Muslim” in short or perhaps you already know. It’s just interesting to know who is in that war. http://www.naharnet.com/stories/en/192732-nasrallah-vows-to-win-syria-war-defeat-u-s-takfiri-scheme

I don’t know the history of the Lebanese war but it seems I read Hezbollah initially fought against the Syrian forces, now they are allied with them and Syria may still control part of the Golan Heights. I’m weak on knowledge over there.

sunnis and shiites regularly kill each other but will routinely band together to kill infidel Christians and Jews, then go back to killing each other.

All you need to know is that moHAMmadens want to kill you and your sons, rape and behead your wife and rape and enslave your daughters.

Oh, and they want to take your stuff and they hate dogs.

They have long been funded, trained, equipped and directed by Iran. They got their now dominant position in the Lebanese Civil War through Iranian support. They have to do what they are told.

Lebanon was a Christian ruled country, before the PLO destabilized it, and Iranian support put their Shi’ite surrogate Hizb Allah in control.
