In its founding document, The Hizballah Program, Hisbollah makes plain its nature as a subsidiary of the Iranian Islamic Revolution. The Hizballah Program says, “We obey the orders of one leader, wise and just, that of our tutor and faqih (jurist) who fulfills all the necessary conditions: Ruhollah Musawi Khomeini. God save him!” Ruhollah Musawi Khomeini is the Ayatollah Khomeini, the George Washington and Thomas Jefferson of the Iranian Revolutionary state. See: The Hizballah Program.

"Predators at the top of the fool chain are said to exercise a major controlling influence over the larger ecosystem, a special status indicated by a variety of terms, including 'top predator', 'top carnivore', 'summit predator', and 'keystone predator (Terborgh 1988; Mills et al. 1993: 220).

"A top predator is an animal at the apex of the food chain that connects all organisms in an ecosystem... Top predators perform several functions that are essential to the maintenance of natural systems as we carrently enjoy them. Top predators stimulate evolutionary adaptations in prey species, influence to varying degrees the composition and structure of ecosystems, support an interconnedted chain of other species and signal the integrity of ecosystems. (Curlee and Clark 1995: 19)
