You know that tactics used by the opposition in Lebanon today are mere imitations of what paid Rafiq Hariri goons (supported by Syrian intelligence) used back in 1992, when the Syrian regime orchestrated the downfall of `Umar Karami to bring in Rafiq Hariri. There were accusations that the plan at the time was also coordinated by former head of Lebanese Army intelligence, Johny `Abduh. Read the details of that day in Nabil Haytham's I Inhabit this Book (a biographical account of Nabih Birri).
