No, we should not deal with them. You'd think we would learn that getting in bed with bad people does not end well for us. My 2 cents. As for the rest, yes, the political situation is complex in Lebanon, and there is lots of history there. But from an American standpoint, the Marine barracks still should be foremost in our minds, and Hezbollah should be allowed to govern Lebanon, but without our aid or assistance. For me, it is just like Hamas in Gaza, and The Taliban in Afghanistan, and the leaders in Iran. Good riddance.
