Germany has joined the various European countries by banning Iran backed, Islamist group Hezbollah at the same as using crack counter-terrorist forces to raid several mosques and cultural centres linked to the group throughout the country.
While its military wings´ operations were already subject to a ban, until now the political wing of the Lebanese Shia group which is believed to have some 1,000 activists in Germany, was able to operate on German soil.
Hezbollah - The "Party of God" exerts considerable power in Lebanon and is known to be a key supporter of its current government. It has been blamed for numerous attacks against Israel, the US and Jewish figures and institutions. Israel has praised the German judiciary´s move and called on the rest of the EU to follow suit.
