42. Hezbollah just doesn't want to lose their power....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hezbollah#Hezbollah_after_the_Israeli_withdrawal
"On May 25, 2000, Israel withdrew from Lebanon to the UN-agreed Israeli border, and their pullout was certified by the UN as complete.<15>. However, Hezbollah claims the Shebaa Farms, a 35 km² area, which is still occupied by Israel, to be Lebanese territory, and on that basis has continued to engage Israeli forces in that area. The UN recognizes the Shebaa farms as part of the Golan Heights, and thus occupied Syrian (and not Lebanese) territory."

Even if Israel left the Shebba Farms area Hezbollah would still claim more land. They are manipulators and terrorists.
