The truck bomb that drove America out of Lebanon — WHO IS HEZBOLLAH Part 2 of 5

History Onion · 2:59

In 1983, a single truck bomb killed 241 U.S. Marines in their sleep and drove a superpower out of Lebanon — and the group behind it denied it even existed. Part 2: how Hezbollah fought its first war in disguise — the bombings, the hostage years, the 1985 manifesto where it finally claimed its name, the Israeli strike that backfired into Hassan Nasrallah, and the 2000 victory it could not stop fighting for. Part 2 of 5. Follow for Part 3 — Master of the House. Some scenes are cinematic reconstructions of documented events. All quotes, dates, and sources are historically verified. #Hezbollah #Lebanon #Iran #MiddleEast #history
