New Miss USA's ties to Hezbollah

Yesterday, a new Miss USA was crowned:
Lebanese immigrant Rima Fakih says it was a certain look from Donald Trump that tipped her off that she had won the 2010 Miss USA title.

The 24-year-old Miss Michigan beat out 50 other women to take the title Sunday night, despite nearly stumbling in her evening gown.

Fakih, an Arab-American from Dearborn, Mich., told pageant organizers her family celebrates both Muslim and Christian faiths. She moved to the United States as a baby and was raised in New York, where she attended a Catholic school. Her family moved to Michigan in 2003.
There's only one problem: Fakih might be a supporter of Hezbollah. She certainly has many relatives who belong to that terror group.

Debbie Schlussel has been all over this story.
