re:Why?
Terrorists - Speaking at a graduation ceremony in Haret Hreik, Nasrallah announced on October 22, 2002: "if they [Jews] all gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them worldwide."[3][4] The New York Times qualifies this as "genocidal thinking"[5], whereas the New York Sun likens it to the 1992 Hezbollah statement, which vowed, "It is an open war until the elimination of Israel and until the death of the last Jew on earth."[6] Michael Rubin qualifies his goal as genocide too, quoting Nasrallah ruling out "co-existence with" the Jews or "peace", as "they are a cancer which is liable to spread again at any moment."[7] The Age quotes him like so: "There is no solution to the conflict in this region except with the disappearance of Israel."[8] Interviewed by CNN, Nasrallah expressed Hezbollah's reluctance to fight America, however, declaring readiness to respond if "someone launches an attack [...] We will not take rejection or humiliation."[9]
re:I thought many were nomadic tribes.
Some were, most were not - a tribe was recognized as a nation by the USA early on in our history. Your analogy is flawed, the KKK is both a political and terrorist organization, you don't negotiate with them, you allow & protect their rights and arrest them when they deny others theirs.
