This has been done as to enhance \/rants role as a regional leader, and to undermine efforts to halt its nuclear project. Within this strategic context, Iran had developed prominent ties with the Lebanese &#8220;Hezbollah&#8221; and the Gaza based &#8220;Hamas&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Such ties pose a continuous challenge to stability in the Middle East, and disrupt the prospects of peace talks between Israel and moderate Palestinians. If a wide armed conflict breaks out due to an attempt to foil\/rants nuclear project by force, these alliances might pose a serious military challenge. Such a challenge would be more serious to Israelis than to a non-regional observer, who would by nature see it as a secondary issue.<\/p>\n<p>The paper will look at the contemporary challenge posed by those organizations, using the historic perspective of the Soviet revolution as a raw model. Forced by the necessity to form a new balance of power in the Middle East as a result of such a conflict several courses of action will be examined, and one will be recommended.<\/p>\n<h3>Document Archive<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/images\/pdf.gif\" \/>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/documents.theblackvault.com\/documents\/dtic\/SCARLPR122M16010509420.pdf\">Proposed Courses of Action Versus Hamas and Hezbollah, January 2, 2011<\/a> [26 Pages, 6.5MB]<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/documents.theblackvault.com\/documents\/dtic\/SCARLPR122M16010509420.pdf<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background In recent years, Iran strengthened its regional and global position through a wide array of alliances, spreading from Latin America to the borders of Israel.
