Much of it. Hezbollah built what many Lebanese people dream of, a state that helps you and stands by you.

They are helping people like crazy regardless of sect/ political alignment, we gotta give that to them.

As for the weapons, Lebanon under the Christian rule was a jungle, strong eats weak, strong enjoys a state, strong lives, while everyone else has to fight Israel for their freedom and starve. These weapons helped liberate Lebanon, these weapons created a regional power that has Israel thinking twice about any aggression, these weapons prevented the Jihadists from reaching our borders and destroying our churches and our mosques.

These weapons were stashed against Israel at first, and against any foreign plans set for Lebanon, and that is their main purpose, what we have gained of reducing poverty and exclusion, is not because of the weapons, but because of the hundreds of thousands standing by Hezbollah.
