It is now the season: March 14 leaders in Lebanon find it heroic and electorally profitable to claim that they were victims of sinister assassination attempts on their lives. The latest is by Butrus Harb: he said that three teams were dispatched and they were armed with a...dagger. But he linked it to the Syrian letter to the UN. Others linked it to negotiations over the Iranian nuclear file. Other leader accused Syria of slipping a banana peel in front of him to trip him. He survived to tell the harrowing tale. More on those tales of heroism.
PS By the way, no one is mentioning that Lebanese Minister of Defense also lives in the same building.
