In Dearborn, Michigan, the FBI is finally beginning to probe how deep the tentacles of Hizballah reach: Probes of links to Hizballah grow.
And the publisher of the Arab American News seems to believe they reach very deep indeed.
If morally supporting Hizballah or associating with Fadlallah is a crime, “there is not going to be enough buses to haul the people out and take them to jail,” said Osama Siblani, publisher of the Dearborn-based Arab American News.
Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982 to fight terrorism, Israelis say. Hizballah, which means Party of God, was formed that same year, the State Department says. Israel occupied parts of Lebanon until Hizballah forced Israeli troops out in 2000.
Siblani compares Hizballah with America’s founding fathers, such as George Washington, saying, “Your terrorist could be my freedom fighter. A terrorist to the Israelis could be a freedom fighter of mine.”
