I find something very fishy about the coverage of Ashraf Marwan's death. First, you find this sudden sympathy in the Israeli press for this Arab. Secondly, there is something very suspicious: none of the articles in the Arabic or Western press have talked about Marwan's relationship with Kamal Adham--the Saudi intelligence chief during King Faysal's reign. Those two constituted an influential team playing a role similar to that played by Bandar these days (prior to the bribery scandal. I heard that the US Justice Department is investigating the scandal. Let me guess. No evidence of wrongdoing will be found. And Bandar will be officially declared the most honest and transparent official on the face of the glob). Also, Ashraf Marwan's son, Jamal, owns the Melody Arabic music channel.
