Report: Syria to present progress in Mughniyah killing probe within days
Haaretz ^

Senior Syrian officials will hold a press conference in the coming days in order to present progress in the investigation into the assassination of Hezbollah's deputy leader Imad Mughniyah, who was killed last week in a Damascus blast, a Lebanese newspaper reported Tuesday.

The report essentially hints that Arab states' security services were involved in the assassination, and the newspaper's editor wrote a separate article Tuesday accusing Jordanian intelligence officials of gathering information on the activities of Palestinian terrorist organizations in Syria, which were the targets of assassination attempts.

Al-Amin reiterated that Hezbollah is likely to retaliate against Israel, in a manner that breaks the rules of the game employed by the sides in their conflict thus far. Al-Amin quoted a senior Beirut figure as saying the region was entering a new era.

"It is difficult to anticipate what is in store in the short and medium term, but what is certain is that what happened before Mughniyah's situation does not resemble what will happen after it," the figure said.

You gotta like this.

One of their terrorists gets blown up and they’re on it like sharks on a dead whale.

But, when Harari gets blown up, the investigation goes nowhere.

The US administration made a mistake when they didn’t invade Syria, divide the country in half, and threaten Damascus.

A case of too little war, not too much.
