A fairly comprehensive review of the Hezbhollah terrorist threat to the US, its history of attacks and capabilities, known activities within the US, and our vulnerability to infiltration across the border.

One author is active duty Army.

Iran acquiring nuclear weapons makes it all the more ominous.

Possibly the Iranian ayatollahs may decide that preemptive Hezbollah suicide attacks against America might serve as a deterrent to U.S. military action against their nuclear facilities

Something W said awhile back comes to mind... BRING EM ON!

Well, there's no real deterrence for suicide bombers who go willingly to their deaths in an attempt to gain passage into "paradise". We simply seem to acknowledge that there will be blood on Main Street in every town.

What's our other option? Mass deportation? They would still strike knowing there gigs up. Thanks for the article. I knew that Hizbullah posed a threat, but not of this magnitude within the US. Keep your gear ready.

"nonetheless, in the aftermath of another terrorist outrage on U.S. soil, new government commissions won’t impede Americans demanding accountability."

I'd go one step further.

But I'd probably get banned for saying it.

A long and truly bone chilling article.

I'd like to take that thought to another level, especially since it is directly related to illegal immigration.

An ever increasing number of people believe a wall limiting illegal immigration will afford our nation protection. It will not. Iran would only need to smuggle large dirty bombs into Mexican cities that border our nation and detonate them at an optimum time. Prevailing wind currents would carry the deadly radiation into large areas of our nation and potentially effect up to a fifth of our population. It would also inflict heavy causalities among our military as many large military installations are in these regions. While gnawing at what I just wrote, keep in mind Iran has taken to employing a nuclear technology that produces the "dirty" materials necessary for such bombs.

Increasing the likelihood of such an attack is the corruption that is Mexican politics and forces so many of her citizens to turn to illegal activities to survive. Illegal immigration is but one of the measures the desperate Mexican citizens turn too. Rounding up all the illegal immigrants from Mexico (and other nations) and deporting them home increases the number of potential collaborators Muslim terrorists will have available to them.

Our southern border will never be safe until the corrupt government of Mexico is gone, replaced by a government bent on justice and prosperity is allowed to flourish as it has here. Such a remedy would also end the tide of illegal immigration to our country across our southern border seeking a means to survive, legal or otherwise.
