Hezbollah's criminal activities streches from "blood diamonds" in Africa to Latin Amerca's drug trafficking.

I'd say that attacking: US, France, Kuwait, Britain, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Lebanon, Egypt; its global criminal financial activities; its oppression and constant crimes against humanity on its own -millions of Iranian- citizens, and even moreso on its minorities; threatening 'Death to US' - the "big Satan;" planning a nuclear attack for genocide on 6,000,000 Jews in Israel (with an introduction of denying the Holocaust); threatening its immediate neighbours, Europe; Ahmadinejad's dreaming of becoming the "Mahdi" to dominate the world under a theocratic Islamic totalitarian system run by the mullahs, constitute a serious threat, Don't you?
