Dr. Yossi Mansharof: Hezbollah always has the motivation to attack Jewish sites around the world, but may be increasingly motivated to do so now. If Hezbollah thinks they are moving away from the eyes of the CIA and the Mossad, they’ll go for it.
Hezbollah will need to launch a major fundraising effort to try to rebuild the biggest project in its history after receiving its worst blow since its establishment in 1982. They need billions of dollars that Iran can’t give them because they are in an economic crisis.
Latin America is an easy place for Hezbollah to raise and move funds despite sanctions. There’s a problem in Argentina. Even when there are sanctions, Hezbollah manages to circumvent them. They need a very strong effort … to enforce sanctions and make arrests.
Hezbollah will make sure that the large Shi’ite community in Latin America will remain loyal. They will feed propaganda to preserve the base … They need to make it look like they won.
