    US says it's monitoring Hezbollah activities

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano (neh-pahl-ih-TAN'-oh) says the U.S. is closely monitoring the activities of Iran-linked militant group Hezbollah (hez-BUH'-lah).

    Napolitano told lawmakers Wednesday that the Homeland Security Department has contacted Jewish organizations around the country and is working with the FBI and other law enforcement and intelligence agencies. She said there is no specific or credible threat against any organization or target in the United States, which considers Hezbollah a terrorist group.

    Iran has been accused of launching a series of attacks against Israeli interests this week in Thailand, Georgia and India. Hezbollah is closely allied with Iran. The Defense Department estimates that Hezbollah receives between $100 million and $200 million a year in funding from Iran.

    Napolitano said the threat from Hezbollah remains a "critical situation worth watching."

Sir I wish you would monitor our southern border, ohh its to late for that. If you do as good a job watching hezbollah as you did our borders we are in big trouble. Sorry sir just had to get all this off my mind, I feel much better now. Hopefully the militants haven't heard about you and Holder if so they would feel much safer.

      "No specific or credible threats in the US" means that there is a threat, and they have some information, just don't know who, where or when. If they didn't, why in the hell would they mention it?

      Isn't this the same kind of situation with the NYPD, pertaining to the Muslims. The NYPD took a beating about their position, after the CIA did their dance, leaving the NYPD out to dry.

      Aren't these those type of people, that Obama let into our country, that are peaceful, docile people. And if not, WHY DID WE LET THEM IN HERE, WITH OUT CHECKS. OR WHY ARE THEY STILL HERE.

      OH, YA, WE'RE THE LAND OF THE FREE. OPEN THE BORDERS, FOR ALL ILLEGALS, AND NOW TERRORISTS, TO ENTER AND REMAIN !!!!!!

      THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Iran and proxies attack the US, ALL Muslims are prime suspect, especially Shias.

      Just like 9/11, Muslims are LIVE TARGET.
