1. Nicholas Wing: I would suggest reading Dr. Matthew Levitt's "Hezbollah: The Global Footprint of Lebanon's Party of God."  I think you may be projecting Western logic and rationale on an organization which operates at the behest of Iranian theocrats.  Hezbollah is an engine of Iranian extension, and their illegal drug operations here in the U.S. are a means to an end.  During the peak of the $1.3 billion LCB used car money laundering scheme, Nasrallah was able to effectively triple the size of Hezbollah's rocket/missile arsenal.  This was an excellent informative video; however, the most important conclusion may have missed the mark.  Hezbollah's "Barakat-esque" pre-operations network on U.S. soil is a serious national security threat; not hype. 
2. Anasthase L.R.: . Did Starfor receive money from zionist lobby for that kind of propaganda ? .
3. general0033: STRATFOR IS A ZIONIST PROPAGANDA OUTLET. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE TO BACKUP THE RIDICULOUS CLAIMS MADE IN THIS VIDEO.
4. A. Useful .Idiot: my thought exactly....not much here to say the least, other than more rightwing warmongering propaganda.offer some proof and I'm all ears....
5. Naod08: If marijuana would be legalized, then those organizations would loose a very big source for money. But with the war on drugs all America does is supporting them indirectly. If intended or not. The ban of alcohol didn't work, and the ban on drugs don#t work either.
6. SkullKing11841: The Texas police said they had links to Hezbollah, stratfor uses a lot open source intelligence. You can Google what there talking about, it's well known that that's what they do. To defend Lebanon from the Zionist Regime they would need money, yes, so they do what they need to get money.
7. general0033: What a load of bullshit. Hezbollah is a Lebanese militant/political group. They defend Lebanon from the Zionist Regime. They are not a criminal network or a terrorist group. This video has no facts to backup it's ridiculous claims.
8. stormy001: Do you have any solid proof to counter this then? Feel free to link it here, I want to learn more.
9. general0033: Informative? It's pure propaganda. There is no evidence for any of the claims in the video.
10. ArabNational: Hezbollah's purpose is to keep Israeli forces from invading Lebanon, not attack Americans on US soil.
11. FLAVIO G: fucking hate hizbollah from my guts the sooner those mutherfuckers gets unarmed lebanon would be a free countrey 4 ever ! its them maggots that do crimes inside lebanon also cant wait for idf to behead that son of a bitch hassan nasrallah pig bastards
12. FLAVIO G: fuck hizbollah whereever there are
