Please don’t take this the wrong way. I am not insulting you but how could you not know that?
always did my research only for hezbollah and the articles that came up, even historical, didn’t attribute the influence of Iran. I didn’t investigate hezbollah and the research is only within the last three years or so and not in depth. Thus the shock. I was in lala land until 9/11. Didn’t know about Free Republic until I heard it mentioned on Hannity and then I joined. Didn’t realize I was a conservative politically till then either. Very naive.
My daughter in law’s grandfather was a survivor. I’ve only been attached to the 1/8 since my son served with them since 2011.
