It was the Illuminati. Or was it the Seven Jewish Bankers? Damn, can't remember now.

True. No country is clean and our own has it's own share of stupid blunders when it comes to interfering with other countries (Look at Zimbabwe if you don't believe that).

But in terms of motive the USA are the ones with one of the biggest, most obvious motives. That doesn't mean that they are guilty but it does mean that as a prime suspect they should be amongst those investigated first.

So rather than listening to them when they point their finger at Syria and believing everything they say the world needs to treat them in exactly the same way as someone who points at the other suspect and says "He did it."

audio interview with Robert Fisk, acclaimed Brit journalist living in Lebanon with what might fairly be called an intimate knowledge of the country, who also happened to be there when the bomb went off.

I'm inclined to call it perhaps one of the best sources on the assassination so far.

His take is that while chances are good that Syria probably knew about the bombing, they didn't necessarily order it. Hariri had alot of enemies, and especially in Lebanon the situation is bound to be notoriously complicated.

I thought Syria were blaming Israel (which has sort of become a US-by-proxy blame, admittedly)?   Albeit Syria also accused Israel of suicide bombing themself, so maybe that's not the more logical source.

Aye just to give an example of how complicated **** is over there the Syrian vp made accusations against Israel at Hariris funeral which he was invited too by the people who are accusing Syria of the bombing.   The situations there is seriously ****ed up, the opposition consists of people whose militias ethnically cleansed their territories of each other a few years ago.

Fisks book Pity the Nation is probably the best book on the Leb out there, anyone gets the time they should read it.
