Dear Michael,
Thank you for your concern.
Hariri was a man of Power,financially and politically.He was one of the rare
leaders in the region who has no blood on his hands and he strongly believed
in democracy and dialogue.He used his power to reconstruct Lebanon
successfully and went all the way to help the needy in a clever manner by
giving them the means to reconstruct themselves.
His power was spreading beyond the region and he was descreetly active
internationally focusing on the middle east crisis, seeking a democratic
solution.This was too much for the taste of his criminal neighbors.
The strong reaction of the UN,the US and the Europeans to this drama, if
persistant,will help Lebanon positively get freed from his occupiers.
The middle east crisis will have to wait untill the missing link,the man of
power and peace,is found and replaced.That's life.
Best regards
Tony
