Previous assassination attempts on Hassan Laqqis by Israel: tell the correspondents of the New York Times and WP who are obsessed with absolving Israel

It has been quite illustrative how the Beirut offices of the New York Times and the Washington Post proved this week, yet again, that they are mere propaganda outlets for the pro-Saudi March 14 groups in Lebanon.  In writing about the assassination of Hassan Laqqis, they simply regurgitated the rumors and lies of Hariri press office.  They were so keen on absolving Israel of responsibility, forgetting that none of the Syrian Jihadi or non-Jihadi groups have ever heard of Laqqis, and that his work was so secretive that only the US and Israel knew of him, among the enemies of Hizbullah.  Now, the Israeli press have all but confirmed Israeli responsibility.  How foolish do those correspondents feel?
