National Interest: Hezbollah has become a power in multifaceted influence strategies.
The American magazine “National Interest” in a report referring to the power of Hezbollah in the cyberspace emphasized that this movement has become a pioneering power in the art of multifaceted influence strategies.
The American publication “National Interest” emphasized in an article today, Wednesday (November 2), that the Lebanese Hezbollah movement, which combines irregular warfare with advanced psychological methods, has become a pioneering power in the art of multifaceted influence strategies.
According to the Al-Mayadeen network website, the American publication writes about this: This multifaceted power of influence enables Hezbollah to advance its strategic interests and at the same time avoid direct combat with its military enemies. Hizbullah managed to create a kind of motivation to dominate the Arab people against Washington in the art of public diplomacy.
This publication quoted Ron Shleifer from Ariel University and added: “The relationship between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006 was a clear example of asymmetric psychological warfare; It shows how a weaker opponent can level the playing field and take the initiative against its traditional opponent.
National Interest further wrote: From the point of view of the Israelis’ political perspective, Iran and its allies are the ones who have largely won the image war; And this happened by focusing on communication techniques and methods of message dissemination, thereby securing a significant advantage over its opponent.
This American publication reported that “the al-Manar TV network (affiliated with Harbullah) has proven to be a decisive weapon of mass persuasion.”
The American publication National Interest noted that Hezbollah’s influence on the Internet “has reached a level of ingenuity that gives the movement weight in cyberspace.”
