"Hezbollah's Terrorist Threat to the European Union
by James Phillips
Testimony

Testimony before the House Committee
on Foreign Affairs, Subcommittee on Europe

Delivered June 20, 2007

Hezbollah ('Party of God'), the radical Lebanon-based Shiite revolutionary movement, poses a clear terrorist threat to international security. Hezbollah terrorists have murdered Americans, Israelis, Lebanese, Europeans, and the citizens of many other nations. Originally founded in 1982, this Lebanese group has evolved from a local menace into a global terrorist network strongly backed by radical regimes in Iran and Syria and funded by a web of charitable organizations, criminal activities, and front companies."
