A Growing Terror Threat: Hezbollah in Latin America

Hezbollah in Latin America? That fact couldn't possibly be a threat to us in the U.S. could it?

According to Katie Pavlich's article, "According to testimony given on Capitol Hill yesterday, Hezbollah, the most extensive terrorist organization in the world, is operating along the U.S.-Mexico border and has vast influence in Latin America."

'“Hezbollah makes Al Qaeda look like a minor league team,” Chairman of the Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence Rep. Patrick Meehan (R-Pa.) said.'

"Hezbollah is the most prevalent terrorist organization in the world. The group operates in over 40 countries and on 5 continents, including operations in at least 15 U.S. cities and four major Canadian cities."

You have to ask, how can an organization that the U.S. State Department lists as a terrorist organization have operations in the U.S.? Do you feel safe knowing that Hezbollah is allowed to operate in the U.S.?
