“Hezbollah has been greatly hurt in the fight, with Iran, against Assad - have they not?”

I was a tad confused by the posting. Hezbollah, Iran, Russia and Assad are allies. On the other side is Isis and a large number of Shea terrorists groups. To further confuse matters, Sunni Saudi Arabia initially financed and supplied the Shea terrorists in a bid to end Assad’s presidency. I don’t know if that continues because the newly empowered terrorists (Or, freedom fighters, depending on your own view) are slaughtering everybody, Sunni and Shea alike.

You definitely need a program to keep the players straight.

Your analysis is dead on. Just one gentle comment, it is Shia not Shea.
