Where is Hezbolla begging for the money to pay lawyers? Hezbollah is funded by Iran.
Hamas gets its cash from Holy Land Foundation (On Trial in Dallas) and CAIR(indicted co-conspirator)

They would do well to take a peek at the demographics of the legal profession worldwide....

By jiminy, all they would have to do is browse through the Yellow Pages of Manhattan, Philadelphia, or any other large American or European city.
Or explore the faculty rosters of top-tier law schools.......
