re: "This is a war. The enemy wants to kill us, enslave us and steal our wealth."

Funny, I can imagine the extremist Mullahs using exactly the same words to motive their followers. Probably with more convincing evidence.

Do you really believe this propaganda, comrade? Do you scare yourself to sleep every nite?

Peter..I think you're generalizing a bit too much.

I was just saying that putting stuff up about Hezbollah from 20 years ago doesn't really explain their current structure and motivation. I don't think the Hezbollah of 20 years ago was influenced nearly as much by Iran as it was by Syria.

20 years ago the U.S. was one of the MAIN supporters and suppliers of the "jihadists" now known as Al Qaeda. When they were killing Russian troops, we were the guys supplying them with the means to do it.

I'm just saying it's a very fluid situation.
