Resignation of this Murr (an appointee of Syrian intelligence) should be top priority

"“Perhaps the most scandalous report is the one that appeared in the Lebanese press today citing Elias Murr, Lebanese Defense Minister, telling US officials during the 2006 war that the Lebanese army will “stay out of the way” if Israel attacked Hezbollah. The reports quoted him as saying that Hezbollah is scared of its Israeli enemy. However, Murr denied these reports, dismissing them as “inaccurate”.”"  It is not "Lebanese press."   It is Al-Akhbar, damn it. (thanks Nicholas)
