US says plot foiled to buy weapons for Hezbollah

Published: 11.25.09, 07:02 / Israel News

A federal grand jury in Pennsylvania indicted four men Tuesday for an alleged plot to support the Lebanon-based group Hezbollah through illegal schemes, including buying the group more than 1,000 machine guns.

 

The indictment comes just a day after officials in Philadelphia said they disrupted a similar scheme to acquire anti-aircraft missiles and send them to Syria, although in that case, authorities have yet to accuse anyone of trying to help a specific terror group. Hezbollah, a Shiite organization in Lebanon, is on the US list of terror organizations. (AP)
