“Six months after the smoke cleared from the bus bombing in Burgas, the deadliest terror attack on European soil since 2005, the Bulgarian authorities bravely identified the Hezbollah terrorist organization as the culprit. In response, the United States has called on the international community to take ‘proactive’ and ‘immediate action to crack down on Hezbollah.’

While most of the world suspected Hezbollah’s involvement in the Burgas bombing from the start, the Shiite militant group continues to remain conspicuously absent from the European Union’s list of recognized terror organizations. Not since Napoleon invaded Russia has the European continent seen such an astonishing lack of foresight.

Over the past 30 years, Hezbollah has murdered scores of men, women, and children with the blessing of its patron saint, Iran. Its agents have carried out terrorist attacks on all five continents, wreaking havoc everywhere from Kenya to Argentina to Greece to Thailand. U.S. servicemen have also figured prominently in Hezbollah’s crosshairs, including the 1983 bombing of a U.S. marine barracks in Lebanon, which left 241 Americans dead.”
