U.S. Urges Europe to Label Hizbullah a Terrorist Group
(Washington Post) Karen DeYoung - White House counterterrorism chief John O. Brennan said Friday that European failure to join the U.S. in designating Hizbullah a terrorist organization is undermining international counterterrorism efforts, making "it harder to defend our countries and protect our citizens." Brennan listed Hizbullah at the top of a list of joint U.S. and European security challenges. In addition to its alliance with terrorist activities by Iran, he said, "we have seen Hizbullah training militants in Yemen and Syria."
