Mexico probes alleged Hezbollah financing: reports

Oct 12, 2006 — MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexican and U.S. agents are investigating a group in Mexico that they believe is funding Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas, two newspapers reported on Thursday.

Mexico started the investigation three months ago on a request from the United States, which is helping in the probe, the daily El Universal said.

The alleged cell is suspected of financing Hezbollah rather than planning attacks itself, according to the Milenio newspaper.

Milenio said the attorney general's office in Mexico has compiled a list of people and companies it believes have provided funds to support Hezbollah, but no names were given.

Lebanon's ambassador was critical.

"This is part of a fear campaign from those who believe they are fighting against terrorism," Nouhad Mahmoud told Reuters. He said he knew nothing about an investigation of a Hezbollah cell in Mexico: "We have no idea, we only saw this in the newspapers."

Mexico's government declined to comment on the reports and a U.S. embassy spokesman was not immediately available to comment.

The U.S. government considers Hezbollah a terrorist organization, although its political party made major gains in Lebanon's parliamentary elections last year and it holds two cabinet posts in the government.

Mexico has a large community of people of Lebanese descent, including prominent business leaders such as telecommunications tycoon Carlos Slim, the world's third richest man.

Mexico started the investigation three months ago on a request from the United States, which is helping in the probe, the daily El Universal said.

This started over three months ago and we're just now hearing about it? Sounds like someone didn't want this information to get out. If it would have been a group in another country, I'll bet we would have been pounded with it by the White House media corp. Perhaps the Bush administration and Fox tried to keep this under cover, knowing full well the potential hazards it could pose to the open borders crowd (Bush & Fox included). How does something like this go three months without being pushed as a media story? Also, why would such an investigation take over three months?

The alleged cell is suspected of financing Hezbollah rather than planning attacks itself, according to the Milenio newspaper.

Are we sure we want to believe that? Obviously an active Mexican terrorist cell would be very damaging to Fox and Bush's future plans.

Hmmm......and they say Mexican citizens and Mexico pose no terrorist threat. Perhaps we need to start rethinking that attitude.

My intent is not to start a conspiracy theory, just expand on the possibilities that there could be more to this than is being shared.

And probably one of the world's most corrupt men, since wikipedia listed corruption as 9% of Mexico's GNP!

It won't matter to Bush if it is true. He still won't seal the borders and enforce our existing immigration laws!
