Hizbollah or Hezbollah? I Have the Answer! Life

No wonder it's so hard to achieve a cease fire in the middle east.  We can't even agree on a spelling.  Is it Hezbollah or Hizbollah?  Even top news organizations can't agree.

Google thinks it's "Hezbollah" as it beats "Hizbollah" 157,000,000 to 15,600,000 in links (10 to 1).  Google will even ask if you "Did you mean: hezbollah?"

Yahoo also thinks that it's Hezbollah by a 4 to 1 margin.

Finally, Wikipedia will direct you from Hizbollah to Hezbollah.

So, in the interest of world peace,  I declare the winner to be "Hezbollah" by score of 3 to 0.
