Israeli court to sentence Palestinian Ahmed Zahara, 32 y/o, from Jerusalem for alleged affiliation with Hezbullah.

He was charged with contacting members of Hezbullah and sending them information about Israel, the IDF, etc...

My opinion (in Arabic) on the status of Hezbullah vs Hamas support:

تكمن نقطة تعجب لمراقب بين الحالة الشعبية لمؤيدي حزب الله و مؤيدي حركة حماس.

ببساطة يرى مؤيدي حزب الله كلام قيادته مقرون بنوع من الخطاب المترفع عن النفاق و المصلحة و النابغ حصرا عن صدق و حكمة على مبدأ التولي و التبري, لييبني وعي جماعي يطابق رؤية حزب الله في الجهاد و السياسية.

⋯ أما بعض مؤدي حماس يرون في بعض كلام قيادته نفاق لمصلحة آنية مرتبطة بحاجة الدعم للتحرير من الإحتلال اليهودي الصهيوني.

يتجلى هذا في التبرير لكلام قيادته في مدح من لا ترى الحاضنة الشعبية للحركة حاجة لمدح. يلاحظ هذا في شدة التباين بين الخطاب الرسمي لحماس و خطاب العامة عن الكيانات

⋯ لا خلاف أن فتنة سوريا كانت من أشد الفتن فتكا بالجسم الإسلامي و في آراء العامة و لكن هذا لا يفسر جنوح البعض بتقديم رأيهم، و هم في غير مركز القيادة، أمام رأي القيادة في أمر ما.

القيادة تبايع سمعا و طاعة، ملزمة للمبايع أو الخروج عنها.
