"Hezbollah is perhaps the world's most capable group. Terrorism expert Matthew Levitt offers a comprehensive and fascinating assessment of Hezbollah's network outside the Lebanese theater, exposing its operations and fundraising apparatus in Asia, Latin America, Europe, and even the United States." -- Daniel Byman, professor, Center for Security Studies, Georgetown University

"Matthew Levitt is a recognized authority on Hezbollah and its activities, both in the Levant and globally Hezbollah: The Global Footprint of Lebanon's Party of God fills a vital gap in understanding the international dimensions of Hezbollah, its reach, and its capacities for terrorism worldwide." -- Charles Allen, former assistant director of the central intelligence for collection, CIA

"Matthew Levitt has made a significant contribution to public understanding of Hezbollah's worldwide operations. He has shone a bright light into some of the darkest corners of the group's activities overseas." -- Richard Barrett, former head of MI6/SIS/British Intelligence's Counter Terrorism Department and coordinator of the United Nations Al-Qaeda-Taliban Monitoring Team

"This book tells the sinister story of a highly sophisticated organization that for more than thirty years has been an archetype of world-wide illicit activities. Hezbollah effectively combines its overt social and political activities with covert criminal and terrorist operations on a global scale. Matthew Levitt's painstaking collection of a rich array of data provides uncomfortable evidence of ' The Global Footprint of Lebanon's Party of God'. This book is essential reading for policy-makers and the international intelligence community." -- Uri Rosenthal, Former Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Netherlands

"In Hezbollah: The Global Footprint of Lebanon's Party of God, Matthew Levitt, through adept storytelling and impressive attention to historical detail, manages to teach even long-time students of the Middle East a

Lebanese politician

Farid Haykal Khazen (Arabic: فريد هيكل الخازن; born September 13, ) is a Lebanese politician and member of the Al Khazen family.

Career

Heir to the Khazen political family, he was elected Maronite MP for Kesserwan District in and was one of the youngest members of the Lebanese Parliament. In October , within the government of Omar Karami, he was appointed Minister of Tourism. He resigned from the government on 18 February , four days after the assassination of Rafik Hariri, in protest against the government's inaction and sensing the scale of the popular movement that was looming.

He ultimately joined the opposition and participated in the June legislative elections on the March 14 Alliance force list, creating surprise by breaking his alliance and turning his back on former minister Fares Boueiz. Nevertheless, he failed to get elected, like all his running mates, against the list led by Michel Aoun.

9 years after the last parliamentary elections, Farid Haykal El Khazen was re-elected to the Lebanese parliament, receiving more than votes in Kesserwan-Ftouh and Byblos, in the parliamentary elections on May 6, , after he joined forces with Chaker Salame (Kataeb party), Youssef Salameh, Gilberte Zouein and Yolande Khoury in Kesserwan-Ftouh, and Fares Souaid, Mustapha Husseini (Hussein Husseiny sibling) and Jean Hawat under the list of Aanna Al Karar. He subsequently joined the National Coalition Bloc alongside the Marada Movement and other independent MPs.

The Al-Watani Bloc gathers MPs Farid Haykal el Khazen, Mostapha El Husseini, Tony Frangieh, Jihad el Samad, Istephan Doueihy, Fayez Ghosn, Faisal Karami.
