(Naharnet-Lebanon) The U.S. State Department's latest release of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's e-mails revealed that she had received a message claiming Hizbullah is seeking to set up a base in Cuba to carry out attacks in Latin America, several Cuban and Western news outlets reported. The Israeli Mossad believes that Hizbullah's targets were "Israel's diplomatic and business interests" in the region, wrote longtime Clinton aide Sidney Blumenthal. The group had been "instructed to also begin casing facilities associated with the United States and the United Kingdom, including diplomatic missions, major banks, and businesses," he said. Hizbullah leader Hassan "Nasrallah also promised to take measures to avoid any trail of evidence that could lead back to Cuba in the event of a Hizbullah attack in Latin America," said Blumenthal.
