Lebanese organized crime is a serious problem, and not just in the US - ask Aussies about their Lebanese problem.
Okay, who is surprised? They will use our freedoms and laws to destroy US.
Did they back Hezbollah when they murdered 241 U.S. Marines outside of Beirut in '83?
These aren't Americans, they're fifth columnists. ....and they should be stripped of their citizenship and booted out of the country.
Denied wrongdoing but fled back to Lebanon? Yeee...
Shame on us for putting up with this Lebanese baloney.
And this is exactly why the Congress should have declared war against the State Dept.'s list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations and not simply against "terrorism" in 2001.
Then we would be quite clear about who is supporting America's enemies, and how to deal with them, whether foreign or domestic.
God help me, the lamb shwarma salad at LaShish is the best you can get here in the states.
Loyal American and supporter of terrorists are mutually exclusive. These terrorist sympathizers are not loyal Americans. They are the enemy in our midst.
"Talal Chahine fled to Lebanon to avoid prosecution but reportedly has denied any wrongdoing."
I wonder if this puke was one of the evacuees that got a free ride to America on my tax dollars....
bump
How many of these ungrateful Lebanese were recently evacuated from Lebanon?
These people need to learn a new word....NISEI

I have forgotten...Is Detroit now referred to a New Falujah, or is it Dearborn?
>>Last May the owner of a chain of 15 restaurants called La Shish was indicted for tax evasion, accused of using a double set of books so he could funnel some $20 million to Hezbollah.<<
We used to LOVE to go to La Shish. The atmosphere is really cool and you can watch them make pita right near the tables. My girls always thought that it was where Jasmine from Aladdin lives.
When this story broke, it ended our eating there. If anyone is north of Detroit and would like the same great food at a cheaper price and NOT supporting terrorists, go to the Meer at 16 mile and Dequindre. It is owned by Chaldean Catholics in the area. Ask for Moe.
