"“One of those intermediaries was Okab Saqr, the Lebanese
member of Parliament who fled to Europe because of death threats after his role
was exposed, though some in the Syrian opposition say he is still involved. Wissam al-Hassan,
the Lebanese security general who was killed in an explosion in Beirut last
year, also helped to coordinate military support to the rebels, according to a
Lebanese official and a Saudi adviser who spoke on the condition of anonymity
to discuss internal operations.”"
