Truth and Hariri

As-Safir published the terms of the Syrian-Saudi agreement that Mini-Hariri agreed to.  It turns out he was willing to sell the truth and to scrap the Hariri tribunal (and perhaps to re-haul his father's tomb outside of Lebanon) in return for the ability to continue in Hariri style corruption, to continue to control the Internal Security Forces without questions, to halt the parliamentary investigation into the plight of the missing $11 billion from the Lebanese budget, to prevent the other side from criticizing his cronies, and to put an end to any attempt by the 4 generals from seeking justice from the tribunal.  I won't be surprised if mini-Hariri starts selling the teeth of his dead daddy as souvenirs.
