Ilyas `Atallah, head of the Hariri Left Movement, would do anything to get before the cameras. He is worse than Sen. Schumer of New York. `Atallah used to beg journalists to put him on the air--and he did that in phone calls to live programs. Now, `Atallah is willing to invent assassination plots against his person, only to stay in the news. Do you know that Syrian mukhabarat selected `Atallah to lead the pro-Syrian forces that attacked tripoli in the 1980s?
