      Khalid, I don’t advocate violence nor does the “A” man. I personally think that previous assassinations were politically motivated and not just because of what Aoun had suggested. Does that make you happy, I do disagree with his off the cuff comment.

      true, he is one of the obvious targets…

      but if there wasn’t still some honourable officers in the ISF, only Allah knows what could happen.

    If a hair on Sami’s finger is touched, the whole Da7iyeh and Damascus should be nuked to oblivion. 

    Also, why isn’t there assassination threats against Michel Aoun, Bassel, and the rest of cohorts that form 8 March?

        I think you’ve got it backwards. As far as I recall, it was Bashir Gemayel who was our ally and Aoun who supports the “Resistance” against my existence.

    I think there is a move now where HA is positioning itself post Assad era. Thus must eliminate threats that they will have to face once weakened and to justify their arms. Threats includes folks who might have political growth and are outspoken. Also they know jumbled will flip against them… But what I can’t understand is Berri’s threat. Is that a cry wolfe? Is he back paddling from supporting assad or HA?
