CBC Hariri investigation

It is a long report: nothing new.  Has been circulating for months.  Most important revelation?  That it casts doubts on Hariri's chief of intelligence, Wisam Al-Hasan (the head of the Intelligence Apparatus at the Internal Security Forces).  What is explosive about this article that it points to in-fighting in the Hariri camp.  Remember that Nazi night? The night of the Long Knives? This is it.  The CBC reporter does not know much about Lebanon and was fed most of this, it is clear (he thinks that Lebanon has one intelligence service).  Also, the guy had previously talked (only) to mini-Hariri and Jumblat.  (thanks Sonia)
