Ahmadinejad in the third day of his trip is going to visit  Bint jbeil   which was  among the hardest-hit areas during the 2006 Israeli-Hezbollah war .

This trip is concerned important in some aspects ; the two countries relations are traced back to many years ago in  Pahlavi's dynasty.

They are not neighbors but there is s strong solidarity based on religion and beliefs between them.

The importance of Imam Musa Sadr's  role in Lebanon  in making connection  between followers of Islam and Christianity is undeniable.

Lebanon is an unusual country; the majority of people are Muslims but the president is selected from Christians.

Apostles of various religions ,cults and ethnical groups live with each other peacefully .

the assassination of Rafic Al Hariri  - the former Lebanon prime minister - was a turning point ,it means everything has changed in Lebanon political arena ; the investigation into his assassination is still ongoing by The Special Tribunal  for Lebanon which is an international criminal court .

the tribunal convicted Lebanese and Syrian officers and also Hezbollah in Rafic Al Hariri's killing , bur Syria and Hezbollah condemned what has alleged by the court.

Within a couple month before a crucial event has happened in Lebanon; for the first time King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and Bashar Al Assad - the president of Syria - arrived in Beirut on the same plane.

Ahmadinejad's trip has caused lots of attentions and reactions, mostly negative in the United States and some countries, the US and GB have expressed concerns about that and Ministry of Foreign Affairs warns to American citizens against travelling to Beirut in these days.

But what memorable is that contrary to expectation lots of political parties ,groups and factions welcomed to this trip ,Iran is going to invest almost 450 million dollars in Lebanon power and water industries .

The advantages of Iran's policy in Lebanon are covering all the Lebanese not just Shias and it is a very effective and profitable trade for both countries.

It shows Iran's power and influence in Middle East.
