“Hizbullah hasn’t conducted attacks in America out of concern that it would provoke too strong a response and disrupt the organization’s fund-raising in the US, according to Federal Bureau of Investigation assessments.”

“Fuentes contrasted Hizbullah’s strategy with that of al-Qaida. “If they could come in an attack us again, they would,” he said of the latter.”

That is why we as a nation thank all who are serving. Every night you are sleeping outside the line next to your Stryker, next to your fellow Soldiers, taking the first shots and carefully deciding whether to shoot back, wondering if that Iraqi has any notion of what liberty/freedom means or what it entails to preserve, please remember with every day that you are out there on the frontlines you are protecting us back here, back home. We thank you for that, more than you will ever know.
