The trial has fired up the rubes, according to the Kronen Zeitung, commonly known as the Krone, a mass circulation paper, because the Lebanese-born man is not awaiting trial in prison.
The Kronen Zeitung wrote: "What seems strange is that the alleged terrorist is free and not in jug," adding that "The public prosecutor has not made an application." The trial will formally start in early April.
The unnamed Hezbollah military leader has lived in Carinthia for 13 years. The authorities accused him of working for Hezbollah in Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...The indictment states the Hezbollah commander is a member of a terrorist organization and engaged in the finance of terrorism activities. He could face a 10-year prison sentence.
The paper said that a similar case involving an accused jihadi terrorist resulted in a late arrest. The Jerusalem Post has reported that Hezbollah operatives who blew up an Israeli tour bus in Burgas, Bulgaria fled to Lebanon and the authorities in Beirut refused to extradite the accused terrorists. The Hezbollah men murdered five Israelis and their Bulgarian Moslem bus driver during the bus kaboom in 2012.
In 2019, Peter Gridling, the director of the Austrian federal agency responsible for combating terrorism, said the biggest danger for Austria is Islamic terrorism.
Austria’s 2018 intelligence report, the most recent document on covering terror threats, lists Islamic terrorism but does not address the danger in specific terms. For example, the Iranian-sponsored Hezbollah organization is not listed.
The US government under both the Obama and Trump presidencies have designated Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for

Austria’s intelligence agency did not even mention the Islamic Theocratic
Republicof Iran in its report. Assadollah Assadi, a Vienna-based Iranian diplomat, was arrested in 2018 in connection with a plot to blow up an Iranian dissident near Gay Paree in 2018.

, Israel and a number of Latin American countries designated Hezbollah’s entire movement a terrorist organization.
Hezbollah’s leadership has declared itself a unified organization without political and military wings.
Germany’s Bundestag passed a December resolution urging the federal government to outlaw Hezbollah activities in the country.
