Der SWP-WebMonitor Nahost/Nordafrika ist ein unentgeltliches, kompaktes Informations-
produkt mit ausgewählten Hinweisen auf aktuelle Stellungnahmen, Dokumente und Analy-
sen zu allen (außen-) politisch relevanten Fragen und Entwicklungen der Region. Bei allen
Titeln gibt es einen Link, meistens direkt zum Volltext. Grundlage der Erstellung ist ein über-
wiegend festgelegtes Set an Quellen: Webseiten, Blogs, Zeitschriften etc. Der Auswahl-Fokus
liegt neben Dokumenten auf wissenschaftlichen bzw. wissenschaftlich basierten Beiträgen.
Neben Titeln mit konkretem Länder- bzw. Regionalbezug werden auch solche berücksichtigt,
deren Thematik relevant ist für die Region. Der WebMonitor wird i.d.R. ein- bis zweimal wö-
chentlich erstellt, nicht aber bei Abwesenheit des Bearbeiters.

A Strategy to Contain Hezbollah: Ideas and Recommendations
Hanin Ghaddar
"Since securing a parliamentary majority, the group has consistently prioritized its own interests

and the buildup of its military arsenal. ...
Ghaddar ... explains why Hezbollah poses such a menace and what the international community can
do about it. Foremost, she recommends that the United States and its partners intensify pressure on
Hezbollah and its Iranian sponsor while simultaneously engaging with a new generation of Leba-
nese who want to free themselves from the group’s stranglehold. ..."
