Don't they ever get tired of Blamming everything on the Jews?

Former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq Hariri was killed in a massive bomb blast in central Beirut on Monday.
The explosion destroyed a number of public buildings and vehicles, showing that the complicated terrorist act was carried out by a well equipped organization.
The situation in Lebanon and the region is now so critical that any discord could cause a new crisis for this small but strategic country.
Lebanon, which has been the cradle of peaceful coexistence among different religious and ethnic groups, experienced a 15-year civil war due to a series of domestic, regional, and international factors in the 1970s and 1980s.
The war left thousands of Muslim and Christian civilians dead, causing Lebanon huge financial losses.
In 1990, the various groups finally put aside their differences and calm and national unity ruled the country again.
Then, following the Zionist army’s defeat in south Lebanon in 2000, Lebanon was once more put into the worldwide spotlight.
Lebanon eventually regained its regional economic position thanks to reconstruction and economic restoration, partly due to the efforts of the late Hariri.
However, regional and trans-regional powers such as the United States and the Zionist regime are trying to steer Lebanon toward a crisis, aiming to extend their military and political presence in some parts of the Middle East and the Mediterranean.
The United States’ strong support of UN Resolution 1559, which requires Syria to withdraw its forces from Lebanese soil, is part of Washington’s plan to politically influence Lebanon and the region once again.
Israel and the U.S. seek to sever the spiritual and physical contacts between Syria and Lebanon in order to isolate Syria in the Middle East and check its political sway in the region.
Neither the Lebanese government nor the majority of its citizens want Syrian troops to quit their country.
However, if Syrian forces withdraw from Lebanese territory, it would surely pave the way for the political and military machinations of the United States and Israel.
The Lebanese and Syrian nations, due to their historical, ideological, and ethnic affinities, are in fact one nation in two separate lands. The regional and trans-regional powers must understand this and must realize that the two nations cannot be separated spiritually. Now, the question is: Who benefited from the assassination of Hariri, a man who played a constructive role in the reestablishment of security in Lebanon?
All the evidence indicates that the Israeli intelligence service Mossad killed Hariri, since it had previously plotted to assassinate important Lebanese politicians.
The Mossad is trying to help the Zionist army claw its way back into Lebanon, since history has shown that the stability of Lebanon is not to the advantage of Israel.
Lebanon now faces a more complicated situation and should stay alert in order to thwart the Zionist regime’s plots to dominate the country once again.

Oh jeez, can't these idiots get another excuse for a change. This is getting so old now.
This was obviously the first thing that the Arab press would report. The Lebanese obviously don't agree, though.
Hey LOL John, slowly I am getting the impression that you are a masochist. Do you always read Tehran Times? ;)
I thought Bush or Cheney were suspects - for sure Halliburton was involved.
Yes, because Arabs never kill brother Arabs, do they?
The difference between the NY times and the Tehran Times is the NY Times will "bend" the truth and print whatever it sees fit to print where in the paper it sees fit to print it.
The Tehran Times will manufacture a story out of thin air, without an iota of fact to back it up. It doesn't "bend" the truth, the truth is a completely alien concept to it.
As for the two newspapers' views on the overall Israel/Arab dispute, not too much difference between them.
Anti-Semitism is the sophistication of the ignorant.
Although the writing style of TT is repetitive and somewhat painful to read. They need to consult their stylebooks. The Tehran Times writer should substitue other words once in a while for "Zionist."
Bush and Cheney are obviously JOOOOSSSSS. It's either that or they are controlled by the Zionists at Haliburton and Enron.
Hmmmm, I'm mixing up my conspiracies. I better adjust my tin foil hat!
;-)
Israel had zero to gain from his death, whereas he himself was virulently opposed to Syrian interference in Lebanon, and was a likely favorite in the next elections. Syria did this, there is no doubt whatsoever. Time for Security Council action, sacntions, embargo and--if needed--war.
They've been smoking the cheap stuff again in Tehran - Ping!
All these adherents of TROP always think that the relatively small number of Jews in thec world have bested them. I used to think it was some sort of inferiority complex. but I have now concluded that it is simole jihadist inferiority! Mekhtoub! (It is written!)
