More: June 2008 US designates two Hezbollah operatives in Venezuela as terrorists - "The US Treasury Department has added two Venezuelans to the list of Specially Designated Global Terrorists for their support of Hezbollah. Ghazi Nasr al Din, a Venezuelan diplomat, and Fawzi Kan'an, a businessman, both provide support for the Lebanese-based terror group.

Ghazi Nasr al Din was born in Lebanon who currently serves as a Venezuelan diplomat and the president of a Shia Islamic center. "Nasr al Din served until recently as Charge d' Affaires at the Venezuelan Embassy in Damascus, Syria, and was subsequently appointed the Director of Political Aspects at the Venezuelan Embassy in Lebanon," the US Treasury reported in a press release.

Nasr al Din used his diplomatic cover to meet with senior Hezbollah leaders in Lebanon and fundraise for the terror group. "Nasr al Din has counseled Hezbollah donors on fundraising efforts and has provided donors with specific information on bank accounts where the donors' deposits would go directly to Hezbollah." He also helped Hezbollah operatives get to Iran to "attend a training course."

Fawzi Kan'an is businessman who runs two Venezuela-based travel agencies. He was born in Lebanon but is a naturalized Venezuelan.

Kan'an is described as "a significant provider of financial support to Hezbollah" who also uses his business to funnel money to Lebanon and assist in the movement of operatives.

Treasury also implicates Kan'an as an operational planner who may have plotted kidnappings and terror attacks. "Kan'an has also traveled with other Hezbollah members to Iran for training," Treasury stated.

His two businesses, the Biblos Travel Agency the Hilal Travel Agency, have been designated as Specially Designated Global Terrorist Entities.".........

If he’s a terrorist the first place to look is to see if he’s employed by the current administration.

“5 foot 7 and weighs about 175 pounds. He has black hair, brown eyes and an olive complexion.”

That description narrows it down in South Florida. Some time back, my son had business in Detroit. The party meeting him at Metro said “Ill be the black guy with the Michigan sweatshirt on”

Most likely he can be found about 3 blocks south of the U.S. Capitol at 453 New Jersey Avenue, SE Washington, DC 20003; CAIR’s headquarters. If he’s not there, they will know where he’s at.

Must be an agent for his government. Travel agencies have been used as cover for both foreign and domestic spy agencies for years. Used for many reasons but mainly to get access to itineraries and passenger lists / info. Same with shipping agents and other “international consultants”.

Is Hezbollah an armed insurgency, a militant group, or a radical terror group?

Since the Obama Administration wants to split hairs on these things, it is important that we are clear in our understanding of the urgency.

Who issued his visa? Or did he give the BP the secret handshake and wink as he walked across the border?

How come the FBI’s after him? Did he shortchange the terrorists or something?
