May 23, 2002 -- BEIRUT - The Hezbollah terrorist group said yesterday it is not planning to attack the United States, but vowed to continue to resist what it calls Israeli occupation of Arab land. The Syrian-backed organization denied a claim this week by Sen. Bob Graham (D-Fla.), chairman of the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee, that Islamic groups, such as Hezbollah and Egypt's Islamic Jihad, could be planning to attack America.

Gee, that's nice. They won't strike on American soil. They sound like such a loyal RAT labor union too.

Odd as it may seem, I tend to believe Hezbollah on this one. Despite their hatred of the U.S. for its support of Israel, they've always viewed this country as a great place to raise money. For Palestinian hospitals and things like that, of course.

The last thing they want is to jeopardize that flow of cash.

Hezbollah's meeting with Al Qaeda recently put them in the category of "Terrorists With Global Reach" in my opinion. You're dead men walkin', boys.

LIARS! What about embassies, corporations and military assets overseas? Doubletalk for the appeasers, apologists and fellow travellers.

Better watch out for these guys. They may be trying to get us to let our guard down towards them. I don't believe anything any of these lying terrorist muslim extremists say. In fact, I think the opposite of what they say should be taken into account. jmo

They may be a lot of things, but they ain't stupid. They know that we (along with Israel) would kick them into the middle of the next decade if they pulled that kind of stunt. They see how galvanized the American people have become since 9/11. They know not to mess with the sleeping giant.

Embassies are U.S. soil. If they support Al Queda, then they already have.

Well they did say American soil but I still don't believe them. Like the Taliban and Iraq they are trying to get the attention off of them.

The State Department report also criticized Lebanon for failing to hand over Hezbollah operatives who killed U.S. nationals in the 1980s.

They already have American blood on their hands, and we should not forget it.
