Islamic Jihad was just a nom de guerre used in the past to claim responsibility for attacks in Lebanon. As it is, 'Islamic Jihad'/Hezbollah, is a Lebanese resistance group/army formed to expel Israel from their country. If Israel did not invade the country repeatedly, attack the country non-stop and partially occupy the country, there would have been no need for Hezbollah.
Hezbollah is not a terrorist group. It's not even a case of 'one man's terrorist'. It quite simply is not a terrorist group, because it exists to repel an outside aggressor and fights against the (invading/occupying) IDF. If Israel was not in Lebanon, and did not attack Lebanon repeatedly, it would not be attacked by Hezbollah.
9/11? The Taliban?
Clearly a very credible page, even by Wikipedia standards.

If Hillary Clinton gave a speech in which she said, "As President Obama said, Iran should be wiped off the map." the shit storm that would come from it would likely cost her her job and the republicans would rain hell down on Obama, but we let this guy just spout shit because. . . well. . . why?

I don't know how many more times I have to repeat this but:
he did not fucking say "Israel should be wiped off the map". Holy shit. Even the quote you posted had "Israel" inserted in brackets by someone else.
If you won't accept reality at this point, you never will.
Edit: what does that even mean anyway? "We just let him spout shit because... why?" Because why
shouldn't he spout shit? Even if he genuinely was threatening another country, and he is not, how is that our business and why should it concern us? If he's not making serious and credible threats towards the US, then we should mind our own business.
