Hezbollah and Counter-Insurgency:
Did Canada Blow It?
Did Canada Blow It?
From Stratfor:
But at the same time, won't this also tell Hezbollah that they need to improve and rethink their terrorism projects?
Reports from Canada say Hezbollah operatives have been detected conducting surveillance on Jewish targets in Toronto, including schools and synagogues. U.S. sources have confirmed increased Hezbollah activity as well. Intriguingly, the reports specifically said the men conducting the surveillance were Hezbollah members, not just men of Middle Eastern appearance. That either indicates a deep penetration of Hezbollah in Canada — the Canadians knew the political affiliation of the men — or psychological warfare against Hezbollah, an attempt to let the group know the Canadians are on to them. If this is a Hezbollah operation, the Canadians just told them they were busted.Why announce it? To deter Hezbollah from attacking Jewish sites? To say, "We're watching you, and we will stop you before you succeed?" To reassure the voters that the Canadian spy agency really is effective?
But at the same time, won't this also tell Hezbollah that they need to improve and rethink their terrorism projects?
