The Israeli spy

The accused Israeli spy, Gen. Fayiz Karam of the `Awni movement was trying to achieve the appointment of director-general of the Public Security Department in Lebanon. The job was within his reach, I can assure you. But Hizbullah is not the type of a party to share its secrets with its allies, whether Muslim or Christian. So the security breach affected the `Awni Tayyar Watani Hurr, and not Hizbullah. The extent of Lebanese security achievements against Israeli espionage AND terrorism in Lebanon is rather breathtaking. What is really helping in the capture of those spies is the competition between two security agencies: the Shi`ite-influenced Intelligence Department of the Lebanese Army and the Sunni-dominated the Information Apparatus (Jihaz Al-Ma`lumat) of the Internal Security Forces. That is a competition that is healthy for Lebanon, and most unhealthy for the Zionist entity.
