Cause: The Usual Pointless Petty Duplicity

For those of you out there trying to decrypt what’s really going on in Iraq through the fog of the mainstream media’s coverage, all you have to do is look at their slightly less biased reporting of the murder of Industry Minister Pierre Gemayel in Lebanon. Gemayel is the son of former President Amin Gemayel, and the nephew of Bashir Gemayel, assassinated as President elect.

Someone or other is engaging in violence to do one of the following:

- Buck for position.
- Start another Civil War.
- Announce that they could start another civil war.
- Threaten the Christians that they could take out people who are dearer to them if they don’t play dead.

Either that or Hizballah is telling the Syrians that they wont have any of that “decent global citizen” stuff that they might be trying to reign them in for. It also doesn’t hurt to smack them now that there is some possible statesmanship to get in on, when all concerned would prefer that Syria take up a junior membership in the “axis of evil”.The Fuse is Lit (No Pasaran!)
