If I thought they were going to be striking my neighborhood, I would for sure leave. Why risk it?

Way to totally miss my point.
A military base is a sizeable and definied area. The fact that it is in a civilian area is deliberate, but much besides the fact. Hezbollah (etc) place a single building among many other civilian buildings. Military bases aren't anywhere close to this.

And once again Lanny goes off the deep end.

My comparison was for how embedded they are in the community.
The Hells Angells have not bombed anybody. They are not military.
Hezbollah has bombs and send them. They are military. They also embed themselves in communities, much like the Hells Angels do.
Get the comparison now?

I challenge you to keep it simple enough for people to pay attention, and do so within the typical segment on a newscast. Anything longer or more in depth is reserved for a special show (20/20 - like), which IMO has a much lower viewership.

If Canada was doing nothing to try and stop that radical group, then they condone it's being there.
Look. You can make all of the wild accusations that you want to. Go for it. Nothing is going to stop you.
I don't condone bombing civilian targets. I think it is horrible. I also know that with how well they seem to be embedded with the "normal" population that it is going to be inevitable.
You seem to want to let them go on their merry way and ignore them. This obviously is not acceptable and is not going to happen.
