Both Hamas and Hezbollah are supported by Syria and Iran, and both are in "Democratization" phases, increasing their peaceful image in Lebanon and Israel/Palestine, respectively. Iran is currently building a nuclear arsenal.
Isn't reasonable to ask if the democratization and calmness of both Hamas and Hezbollah is just the cover for waiting until Iran gives them the bomb? Or that Iran has suppressed their activities to tranquilize the West while the bomb-making goes on?
