ravenseye, fwiw, when one reads what Truthseeker has to say regarding the sister branch of Mercy International in Michigan, one might consider that currently 30% of the population of Dearborn, Michigan subscribes to the teachings of radical Islam. The prominent faction of radical Islam in Dearborn, Michigan is Lebanese Hezbollah.
What happened in Kosovo is what is starting in Dearbon, Michigan. In Kosovo, the radicals imported jihad mercenaries for their jihad against Christian serbs. Dearborn, Michigan has become a US hub for radical Islam. Ken Breen presented evidence to Magistrate Judge John Houston of Tony moving funds offshore, including $700,000 that Tony transferred to Lebanon. Breen also gave evidence of the fact that Tony gave directions for his website operation to start sending profits to Lebanon.

TSX member Global wired Elgindy money to Lebanon
Friday May 24 2002 Street Wire
by Brent Mudry
In the first detailed revelation of advance Sept. 11 knowledge, the U.S. government suggests controversial California short Amr Ibrahim (Anthony) Elgindy, an important client of Vancouver brokerage Global Securities, might have been tipped off about Osama bin Laden's Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington, and tried to dump his shares the day before.
The stunning, and unproven, allegation was made Friday morning at a detention hearing in San Diego by Brooklyn Assistant United States Attorney Ken Breen of the Eastern District of New York. The Sept. 11 comments formed part of the government's successful argument that Mr. Elgindy poses a serious flight risk, and he was denied bail.
Mr. Breen also presented verbal evidence to Magistrate Judge John Houston of Mr. Elgindy moving funds offshore, including $700,000 transferred to Lebanon, and the fact that the short gave directions for his Web site operation to start sending profits to Lebanon. (All figures are in U.S. dollars.) While Stockwatch reported Thursday that Mr. Elgindy bought a hotel in Lebanon two months ago, citing an unconfirmed source, Mr. Breen did not mention the hotel in court.
Court testimony showed that Global Securities was a major origin of these offshore transfers...

...Meanwhile, “Federal prosecutors in Michigan say Hezbollah gets more support in their area than any other Mideast terrorist group. That may have drawn Mahmoud Kourani, a Hezbollah money man, to Dearborn, Mich. after slipping into the U.S. illegally through the Mexican border. The brother of a Hezbollah general, Kourani hosted fundraisers for the Party of God before he pleaded guilty last year to materially supporting the group. He will be deported after he finishes a 54-month prison sentence.” Read more about it here, and here.
Another article in the Chicago Tribune from last summer, “They’re 100% American, and Pro-Hezbollah,” describes how in Dearborn the “community leaders say Lebanese-Americans are not supporting terrorism against the United States. Even though the U.S. government has linked Hezbollah with the deadly attack on the Marine barracks and the U.S. Embassy in Beirut in the 1980s, Hezbollah has never attacked America at home, they argue, and has shown no interest in doing so.”
Not supporting terrorism? That’s a pretty weak argument, since just because Hezbollah has never attacked America at home doesn’t mean Hezbollah has never attacked America. Hezbollah’s slogan is “Death to America!,” and always has been. Hezbollah has been murdering Americans since its first year of existence. Here’s just part of their long record of trying to live up to it.
And a report last week from Beirut only last Sunday described “more than a half-million pro-Hezbollah demonstrators chanting ‘Death to America!‘’and ‘Death to Israel!’ in the heart of downtown,” so that “the Lebanese capital seemed more like a vision of Tehran.”
Nor is Hezbollah limiting itself to Lebanon. American intelligence sources report that Hezbollah is actively assisting in training the Mahdi army in Iraq, killing, by the way, a lot of Americans.
Another report has said “that 1,000 to 2,000 fighters from the Mahdi Army and other Shiite militias had been trained by Hezbollah in Lebanon. A small number of Hezbollah operatives have also visited Iraq to help with training, the official said.
“This should come as no surprise, really, since many of Baghdad’s Shiites were out on the streets chanting ‘Death to Israel’ and ‘Death to America’ …in a show of support for Hezbollah militants battling Israeli troops in Lebanon.
“…’Allah, Allah, give victory to Hassan Nasrallah,’ the crowd chanted.
“’Mahdi Army and Hezbollah are one. Let them confront us if they dare,’ the predominantly male crowd shouted, waving the flags of Hezbollah, Lebanon and Iraq.”
