Hi, guys, quick question for you today as we go into the weekend. I know it's been another

really busy week of news, but are you a double hater? Are you a double hater? Are you drinking

the hater raid this election season? That's actually a serious question and a real term that is being used to describe

some voters. I'm going to tell you about why I thought of this article because of this week's

news cycle in just a moment. But first I want to start with a little bit of serious news.

This has been a big story this week, what we've been watching in the Middle East, where these

very strange, mysterious

attacks that are using pagers and walkie-talkies as sudden explosives. This took place in Lebanon,

and all eyes and fingers are pointing at Israel as being behind these attacks.

Let me just explain that real quick.

Lebanon is a freestanding country, all its own.

It has its own military.

But inside Lebanon is a very active terrorist organization called Hezbollah.

And according to the description of these reports, those that were targeted were members of Hezbollah,

this terrorist organization. So we've seen a few days of these attacks. There's been a flurry of

news headlines about it. One of the things I think is missing from this story that's very,

very important is how unique Hezboa is. When we talk about terrorist groups, we sort of paint them

with all the same brush. And by the way, they all are starting to sound the same. They sort of

wash over us, Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis. You know, it's hard to keep them all straight. What's really

important about Hezbollah is just how organized and militarized it is. It's actually bigger. This

terrorist group is bigger than Lebanon's own military.

It not only has tens of thousands of members. The last estimate placed it as upwards of 50,000 members.
