Hezbollah's Syrian Quagmire
Hezbollah -- Lebanon's Party of God -- is many things. It is one of the dominant political parties in Lebanon, as well as a social and religious movement catering first and foremost to Lebanon's Shi'a community. Hezbollah is also Lebanon's largest militia, the only one to maintain its weapons and rebrand its armed elements as an \"Islamic resistance\" in response to the terms of the Taif Accord, which ended Lebanon's civil war and called for all militias to disarm. Hezbollah has long played a dominant role in Lebanon, extending its influence through political and social activism as well as terrorism, political violence, and military prowess. But it has long insisted that it acts only with Lebanon's best interests at heart. Today, Hezbollah can no longer maintain that fiction. Having fanned the flames of war in Syria based on a distinctly sectarian divide, Hezbollah bears significant responsibility for the violence that has now spilled over the border into Lebanon.

Boxing the octopus
\"At the height of tourist season, an armored car drives off a crowded pier and sinks to the bottom of San Francisco Bay. By the time divers find the wreck, the cash is gone and the driver has vanished. The police are convinced it's an inside job, but local merchant Vera Young, whose boyfriend drove the armored car, claims it was much more than a simple heist. Vera swears the missing driver is innocent and wants him found before the police can throw him in jail. Private investigator Cape Weathers reluctantly takes the case but warns Vera that her boyfriend is likely guilty-or dead. What starts as a manhunt uncovers a criminal conspiracy of money laundering, illegal drug testing, and a network of corporations willing to do anything to protect their stock price. It's a case that Cape can't get his arms around, and his relationship with Vera is getting complicated while the list of people who want him dead is getting longer\" -- Amazon.com

In the business world, obviously, tax advantages that different countries apply are used to gain advantages, allowing a lower tax for specific business. Tax laws of some states, generally in small countries, is very favorable for the entrepreneurs, allowing legal entities to be created, which then, by benefitting of reduced taxation in the country of registration, are able to conduct their business in other countries where taxation is overwhelming. Thus, legal entities are generally companies that take advantage of a law fiction. As legal entities, they cannot exist unless they are animated by individuals whose interests they reflect.
