Some of our (Americas) spies have been caught spying on Hezbollah a terrorist group we think is funded by Iran. Already they are saying we are spying on Israels behalf. The article also states Iran has been outing more and more spies from Israel, America, and Britain. In 2009 100 Israeli spies were arrested by Lebanon and Hezbollah. More and more spies from these 3 countries are now going missing in Iran and the CIA is scrambling to protect its remaining spies in the areas. Backed by Iran Hezbollah has created a special spy combat unit. It is unknown at this time what will happen to these captured assets. Hezbollah has disappeared people before and kept others around depending on what information these spies can provide.

Your thoughts on this? It sucks. I hope our operations over there aren't too badly damaged but it seems like they are from the article.
Using the latest commercial software, Nasrallah's spy-hunters unit began methodically searching for spies in Hezbollah's midst. To find them, U.S. officials said, Hezbollah examined cellphone data looking for anomalies. The analysis identified cellphones that, for instance, were used rarely or always from specific locations and only for a short period of time. Then it came down to old-fashioned, shoe-leather detective work: Who in that area had information that might be worth selling to the enemy?
Better off. The issue of spies over here has been raging on for years. We've already seen what foreign imperialist intervention has done from the Bay of Pigs to other worldwide coups and coup attempts.
Oh and Hizballah is not a "terrorist group" (illegal by state standards) per se but simply a political party that is also involved in anti-Israeli activities as with most parties over here. Hizballah hackers and programmers are also quite renowned for various "activities" such as hacking political opponents' websites, computers, DDoSing, pirating games from Syria (which are sold in legal shops for a dollar or two) and even creating two anti-Israeli FPS games.
I'm glad these spies have been captured, actually. Levels the playing field a little, no?
But on a serious note, people who scream "WORLD WAR THREE OMG OMG OMG NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST" are complete ****tards. If America and especially Israel weren't intent on trying to conquer the world, maybe some nations who are surrounded by enemies wouldn't feel the need for nuclear programs.
Keep in mind that Israel has 400 plus nuclear warheads, and has NOT signed the International Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Yet nobody seems to be worried about Israel, now why's that, I wonder?

They may do that. But they also bomb innocent people. Have done beheadings. Want everyone to follow Islam or die. The US and several other countries recognize Hezbollah as a terrorist group.

1. So your glad terrorists have captured people?
2. We are trying to spread freedom not rule the world.

Just like how we were spreading "freedom" into Iraq after nukes weren't found? That's the god damn problem. I'm all for my country stepping in when we're asked. But to force "freedom" onto any country, especially these Middle Easter countries who's cultures and governments are incredibly different then ours, it not only makes no damn sense, it doesn't freaking work.
It not only destabilizing the region, but it's also like a major culture shock to these people, and they're unprepared to handle having it suddenly thrust upon them. Furthermore, you see issues like right now; Saddam was a major counterweight to Iran. And now he's gone. Great job, boys!
You have to let freedom be birthed and take root naturally. You cannot simply throw the governments people have been used to for decades and say "BE LIKE US!" and expect them to magically know what to do. We take our system for granted, but to them, it's very different than what they are used to.

It gets a result.
Lolwut? I hope you are being satirical.
The US and its lackeys recognize anything against the former as terroristic.
Indeed it is quite shocking how the US can simply detain and arrest anyone for any reason.
Lol. Again, I hope you are being satirical and sarcastic.
...what?
The majority of countries have spying as a capital offence.
What do you think is going to happen......
Oh yes, that most endearing of american archetypes: "We gon' free the **** outta you!"
One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.
Open your eyes a bit.
-Some news on the world.

I hope to God that what you said was sarcasm. Because if not, that's just stupid.
