To be sure, Hezbollah is still grudgingly respected for its ability to stand up to Israel. But it has lost its halo as a voice for the oppressed and downtrodden, and has exposed itself as a partisan and sectarian party that will side with Iran and its allies even at the expense of human rights and human lives in neighboring Syria.
Desde luego, Hezbolá sigue siendo respetado a regañadientes por su capacidad para hacer frente a Israel, pero ha perdido su halo como voz de los oprimidos y se ha manifestado como bando partidista y sectario que se pone de parte del Irán y de sus aliados aun a expensas de las vidas y los derechos humanos en la vecina Siria.
