Hizballah has leveraged its worldwide network of members and
sympathizers to secure financial, logistical, and other types of
support. Procurement of goods ranging from weapons to dual-use items
(e.g., night-vision goggles and clock timers) is a critical component of
these efforts. In Canada, Hizballah has long maintained a robust
network of agents able to purchase such items on the open market and
send them to Lebanon. Matthew Levitt explores this network in depth in a
chapter from a recently published compilation on violent extremism in
Canada.
