The case of Jihad Makdisi

When media of Saudi royal family members, like the crude and vulgar Al-Arabiyya (the news station of King Fahd's brother-in-law) make up a story, they wait to see if the lie is exposed.  When it is exposed, they make up another lie to cover up the first one.  Al-Arabiyya had reported that Jihad Makdisi had reported and that he was joining the Syrian exile opposition in a senior position. When that did not happen (or at least as of yet), the news station felt that they had to produce another fabrication.  So today they are citing "sources" that Makdisi was kidnapped by Hizbullah.  But don't worry: when this one is exposed as a lie: they will produce another lie.
