communities, which we saw in iraq led to civil war and led to continued tension. that is an issue that is tense throughout the arab region, and lebanon being host to communities of shiite muslims and sunni muslims about equal in number and very much vying for power within the state. that s another fault line that lebanon lies in. the issue of the international tribunal has brought all of this to a head because hezbollah considers this tribunal as politically motivated and manipulated and as out to get hezbollah. so they re trying to resist it in many, many ways. paul salem, the director of the carnegie middle east center joining us from beirut in lebanon. thank you. the u.s. ambassador to syria has arrived in damascus for the first time in six years. but robert ford is starting his new job at a difficult time. we ve been hearing all about the tensions in neighboring lebanon. that all stems from the murder of the lebanese prime minister

is really angry about a u.n. tribunal that s investigating the assassination of mr. hariri s father back in 2005. i want to bring in paul salem now, who s the director of the carnegie middle east center. he joins me now from beirut. thanks so much for being with us. how much control is hezbollah in here in this situation? are they in the driver s seat? well, hezbollah has a lot of influence on the opposition. the country is split about equally, both in the country itself and in parliament, between supporters of the opposition and supporters of what s called the march 14 movement led by the current care taker prime minister saud hariri. so politically they have about half of the influence in the government. they are very strongly supported, of course, by syria, which has influence in lebanon, as well as by iran. militarily, of course, hezbollah is very dominant, and they could use their weapons as they did in
