#2 Hizb-ul-Islam, roughly "Party of Islam". Roughly.

#4 Hezbollah is (probably deliberately) spelled out in English in a deceptive manner. I think the correct transliteration is Hizb'allah, Party of God.

Of course it's hard to pronounce correctly when the Hezbies' spokesmen's lips keep falling off, so the misspelling is perfectly understandable.
