A Surprising Reliance on Semantics

Constructing jihad, one block at a time.
To nobody's surprise, the U.S. Treasury Department has designated the Hezbullah-affiliated group Jihad al-Binaa as a terrorist-supporting organization (h/t MEMRI). Snapped Shot readers may recall that "Construction Jihad" was pegged early on as a propaganda effort at best, something which has been reinforced more recently by complaints from local residents.

Terror-supporting organizations, setting up front groups to bolster their support and launder their cash? The shock!

I'm happy to see a delightful little bout of commonsense from our Government on this occasion.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.
