Thanks to a criminal Paraguay operation, directed from London and involving consulates in the Middle East, thousands of Shiites from Lebanon and Syria were granted Paraguay passports and travel documents (for a price). They settled in Foz de Iguacu, Brazil and Ciudad Stroessner, Paraguay, and there created the first Latin Hizbollah cells. By 1989 Washington was notified that their presence created a significant danger to the region.
