Among other things, CBC News has learned that:

- Evidence gathered by Lebanese police and, much later, the UN, points overwhelmingly to the fact that the assassins were from Hezbollah, the militant Party of God that is largely sponsored by Syria and Iran. CBC News has obtained cellphone and other telecommunications evidence that is at the core of the case.

- UN investigators came to believe their inquiry was penetrated early by Hezbollah and that that the commission's lax security likely led to the murder of a young, dedicated Lebanese policeman who had largely cracked the case on his own and was co-operating with the international inquiry.

- UN commission insiders also suspected Hariri's own chief of protocol at the time, a man who now heads Lebanon's intelligence service, of colluding with Hezbollah. But those suspicions, laid out in an extensive internal memo, were not pursued, basically for diplomatic reasons.

The Hezbollah is likely to be indicted. But like all UN actions, it will be paralyzed by the supporters of terrorism. The Lebanese Army and politician will do all they can to block the action of the UN tribunal.

Remember Avraham, you and your alter ego, that is not enough to be elected speaker for all of us.
Your extremist religious stupidities are not of any interest, yet you still blog them.

your atheist opinions are of even less interest, and you are the one who keeps on using "we" as if you were a group spokesman. "all of us" - who made YOU a spokesman?

You write RUBBISH here.

Finish high school and go get a job.

I believe Hezballah were involved in the assassination of Hariri and also that the Syrian Government were "handling" Hezballah behind the scenes. However, the Lebanese Government is too weak to tackle Hezballah on its own, as the consequence could be another very bloody civil war.
As for Syria, it is too influential in the region and a major power broker to bring charges against the high level Syrian officers. The USA is very keen to make progress on the Palestine/ Israel peace talks, and they need the tacit support of Syria for progress to be made.

"Yet another irrelevance"

I see that 5%'s grasp of geopolitics is as non-existent as his grasp of everything else.

Please Avraham, don't you remember it is yourself: I represent, according to you, myself, Antony Posner, Moshe something, Netanyahu in tutu, Desmond in Netanyahu, etc.

That is to say "a lot" of people.

Please send your pseudo-religious drivel to EuroPalestine, who will accept it with pleasure. Only change "Judaism" into "Islamism" and of course your ridiculous pseudo into "Ibrahim ibn el-Rais".

The best thing that can happen to Lebanon is a war to get rid of this "state-within-the-state" terrorist militia called Hezbollah.
Israel must be ready to help Lebanese people to get rid of it.
The soft belly of democracy will tell that a war must be avoided at all costs. Do I hear the voice of Chamberlain 1938?
