I agree with virtually everything you wrote, except for the part about Hizballah willing to come into the fold. I agree that PART of the group will never stop fighting. Others, though, have worked very hard at making Hizballah a 'legitimate' voice of the Shiite minority.

Organizationally, I see Hizballah being more similar to the IRA prior to the IRA/RIRA split than to HAMAS.
