Michel Samahah

Former Lebanese Minister, Michel Samahah, was arrested in Lebanon.  What is ironic about it is this: for months US and Western media have been complaining (chutzpah) that Lebanon's government is under the control of Hizbullah and Syrian regime. So the news story in the Western press should read as follows: Michel Samahah, a key ally of the Syrian regime in Lebanon, was arrested by the government of Hizbullah and the Syrian regime.  That makes sense.
